Load the Fap Cannon: Cammy coming to Street Fighter IV (fans simply coming) photo

Fans have wanted it (mostly the ones with suspicious creases in the center of their pants) and Capcom has delivered it -- yes folks, Cammy is heading to Street Fighter IV. She topped a poll from Capcom that asked which character gamers wanted to see most in SF IV, so now that she is said to be "definitely in the game," the Internet may rejoice.

Cammy is a firm favorite (emphasis on firm) with Street Fighter fans, and the British agent in a glorified swimsuit is one of the series' most memorable characters. There are also plenty more depraved and foul things I could say, but you can either use your imaginations or just type "Cammy" into Google Image Search with the safety function switched off. I know I have. 

While we're on the subject of new characters, there's also a rumor that Sheng Long will be revealed at the Tokyo Game Show. No further details from there, but it seems Capcom is still mulling over the cast list, stating that:

"Figuring out the right number of characters is a lot like chess. You need to know the rules well, and things need to be balanced properly. We'll see what we end up with."

Now that Cammy is in, and assuming we may see Sheng Long soon, who else from the SF back catalog would you like to see make an appearance? Or do you want some more brand new characters?

Sakura alone would complete the roster for me. I'd like to see how her fighting style has changed. Ibuki would also be welcomed, but Sakura is more important.

Obligatory: You must defeat Sheng Long to stand a chance.

Also, seconding on the need for Sakura.

Cammy's in a bikini?

I don't think she's ever appeared in a SF (or Cannonspike) game in a bikini...I've only seen her wearing her Shadaloo sweater and that Delta Red skintight jumpsuit. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong

Yay! Now I can has pwn...and other things "<.<=>.>".

As for a character I'd like to see return, Ingrid, from Alpha 3 Max(the PSP one).

For the most part though, now that the original 8 fighters, Cammy, Fei-long, Akuma, and the 4 bosses are there, I'm happy with the roster.

Fap Cannon loaded and ready to fire at your command.

I'll be honest, I'm happy as hell, but not bouncing off the walls like you might expect. Guess you can say I've grown to accept this was going to happen once Cammy won the fan vote poll.

However, this doesn't end my campaign for getting characters into Street Fighter IV. There's a few more possibilities that really should be looked at by Capcom - specifically Mike Haggar (yes, the guy from Final Fight) - but having Cammy in the game is a good thing. At least Buster and I can now have epic Cammy vs. Chun-Li fights on Xbox Live.

They're adding Cammy? God...Street Fighter IV has enough male characters as it is. How about adding some more comparatively feminine characters like T. Hawk or Alex.

Some Fei Long action would be cool. Cammy I hope is better in SFIV, because she needs some new moves.

Dudley and Hugo.

I will also accept Birdie, Sodom, Guy, Adon, Gen, Q, T Hawk, Dee Jay, Urien, R. Mika, Alex, Makoto, Cody... okay, you know what? I want all of them in there! Every single one and then some. I know we cant have the EX characters but why not just use new characters and steal their special moves?

Needs more Sakura and Karin. And some Ibuki, Elena, and Makoto. And possibly even some R. Mika. And... Rose? Did I leave anyone out? Eh, just assume that I named every female character that has not already been officially confirmed. But especially Sakura and Karin.

Hell, why don't they just pull a Mortal Kombat and simply include every character that has ever been in a proper Street Fighter or Street Fighter Alpha game? (Discounting the various versus games, of course.) That's kind of like what the console versions of Street Fighter Alpha 3 was like anyway, for the time at least. DLC?

Hmm.

So, the game is already out in arcades.
But they're now adding Cammy to the roster. Also, the game is set to come out soon for consoles (soon being subjective)

Sooo....do they already have like 30 characters programmed, bug-tested, animated, designed and ready for the game (to be released as $DLC no doubt), or are they just really fast artists/programmers?

@ Paul Soth;

Dan might be heading to the console versions along with Fei Long. I believe RAB has the details.
