I know its kind of a lame pick but I gotta go with the king, I just love his power. I love just zoning the shit outta someone and when they try to get in really close unleashing some brutal punishment. I love him and I wish they would make him the best character in the series once again.

I'd go with E. Honda.
He is the ultimate beginner character, and in SF2 his hundred hand slap can fuck you up while requiring only the ability to mash one button. He's probably the easiest character to play from a technical standpoint, even in SF4 his most damaging combos are only like 3 moves.
Also you can pull some gay shit on Super Turbo with him. Although not as gay as Vega.

I don't even remember who all I played when I was a kid (I do remember playing Acguy and Ball though), but touching upon it recently I really like Hydra Gundam.

He's got such a good everything.

Wasn't he a huge pain to unlock? I remember Psycho Gundam was too.

Yeah, for hydra you had to beat the game on hard without losing

You had to beat street mode with Talgeese III who was slightly challenging to unlock since you had to beat street mode on hard with both Wing Zero and Deathscythe.

There was definitely some harder shit to unlock like Psycho, but it wasn't exactly easy either.

Also Kyo Kusanagi in any of the KOF games (whether he's got his rekkas or fireballs)

ESPECIALLY in 98 in Extra mode. Good god almighty that motherfucker is DIRTY with a forward dash.

Yeah, it was 3. 2 was Trieze Kushinranada's, which he took with him to his final battle. 3 was meant to be his, but it wasn't ready in time, so it eventually found it's way into Zech's hands.

Though, the time line was obviously altered a bit for GBA 2, seeing as all the Wing pilots are using their suits from the movie, except Trieze, who is piloting the Epyon. Then again, the Epyon was his in the first place, he just decided to hand it off to Heero for...whatever reason. I forget. Saging for talking about animu in a retro thread.

Mah nigga. I was never a huge KoF fan but Yamazaki tore ass in CvS2.
Got kinda ok in 98 and 2002. Don't care as much about the more modern KoFs because Yamazaki isn't in them.
