Remember Mika from when I used to have Street Fighter Alpha 3 on the Playstation. Would be nice if they included some more older characters we haven't seen in years for a Street Fighter game like Karin and Sodom.

Rainbow Mika's "singing performance" is bound to send a good number of her opponents to the ER.

Stone Cold Stunner? For real? Count me in lol. Never cared much about R.Mika but she's looking proper nuts in this game and seems like a real blast. I'm excited.

I like the stunner but overall, still not a fan of Mika. So far, still sticking to Birdie.

16 characters, 4 new ones. We now have 10 revealed, of which 1 is new. So 3 new characters to go, and 3 returning characters. That doesn't leave much more room for Alex and Q....

I do like the fact that the Street Fighter Alpha cast seems to be getting a lot of love this go around though.

I hope they keep Junko Takeuchi to voice her.It's always something special hearing her voicing a woman.

Actually those are the only two left from Alpha, so it's likely they will make the roster.

Alpha 3 is my favorite in the series and I'm very happy to see one of it's coolest characters return!

Karin's still the Alpha series character I'd prefer to see.

They could still have DLC to add in more characters though.

Judging by the trailer, she will reprise her anyways. Let's see if they include Ibuki just for the sake to include a ninja joke on her.

The entire structure of the game is going to be 'DLC' based, or rather League of Legends style where they roll out a new character every month or two, that you can either pay money for or unlock with in-game earned currency.

Mika's move set looks really fun. Among other things, she has a stone cold stunner, a big swing/bulldog combination, some sort of somersault neck breaker, and that super reminds me of an episode of Ren & Stimpy. Come on. It's... the horrible... insidious... FLYING BUTT PLIERS!!! Laughing

The last remaining characters will more than likely be Karin, Urien, & Alex out of the returning cast of the initial 16 characters.

I'm basing this on the fact that Siliconera reported about the 4 characters being put into the game months in advance and so far, Mika is the first of the characters they've proved right on getting in.
