Talk:Hadouken

message: For all there's a source for "Hadoken-inspired Dragon Ball is one of the attacks in all installments [sic] of the Worms series", it has to be observed that, all else being equal, the name "Dragon Ball" rather strongly implies it's derived from the famous Kamehameha; just because a journalist on a somewhat dubious-looking website writes that it's "Hadoken-inspired" doesn't make that factually accurate, to whatever extent this is a mere quibble.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.73.25 (talk) 23:14, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

message: This move was not introduced in Street Fighter IV. Satsui no Hadou ni Mezameta/Evil Ryu had such a move in Capcom vs. SNK, and it was a three-bar move similar to Denjin Hadoken, but with a forced charge. I'm going to edit that line a bit.

message: This isn't a fan fiction page. If people want this page to stay up, there needs to be less blather about Gouken and focusing ki, and more practical explanation about what the move is, and what it does when you play a Street fighter game. I've made a start by removing some of the in-universe blather about sure-killing techniques and added some explanation of the fireball's various effects

message: Every time I come to this page, somebody seems to have switched the translation of 'Hadou' from 'surge' to 'wave motion' or vice versa. I'm of the 'surge' persuasion, but I want to know how many people actually think 'wave motion' is the way it's meant to be read. FlameAdder 04:27, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Translation

message: Hadoken duplicates much of the content of this page. Although there is some new content, bringing that content here and creating a redirect to this page will suffice. This article can then include the comment that the attack is spelled both ways as well as trivia like its mentions in 8-bit Theater.

text: The 8-Bit Theater ref is relevant, if it's worth mentioning Megaman X. The comic explicitly duplicates the name and appearance of the attack and is based on a well-known game (Final Fantasy).--Kris Schnee 01:03, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Laffo 

message: This is at the bottom of the page: 
a) 	The Hadouken is performed strictly through the Hadou Application, one of the three key elementals of Ansatsuken. The practitioner utilizes all of his ki and/or will onto his fists and open-handedly punches with two hands at the same time, with the wrist joints of both hands touching. The surge contained within the fists is then expelled through the user's palm and a surge of shock then shoots through a straight line. Anyone touching the surge of shock will be crushed. The damage is dependent on how well the surge is exerted onto the palms.
b)
c) 	PROFIT!
But I can't find where it comes from.  Anyone know what's going on?

message: Just saw my last update including Sabin get reversed:
# (cur) (last)  09:47, 25 February 2007 JuJube (Talk | contribs) m (so what, are you gonna list every single video game where a Hadouken motion makes a projectile come out?)
# (cur) (last) 08:00, 25 February 2007 Jkoudys (Talk | contribs) (added Sabin from FF6 as an "Other user")
This reversal is ridiculous. It makes no sense to just remove the one Sabin entry. He really should have started a talk section instead.
The question is: should this section exist at all? There really are a lot of games where people shoot hadoukens. Either those other users that people add stay, or the whole section should be removed. 199.246.40.54 17:34, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Worms bit 

message: Some people tend to think that Dragon Ball's "Kamehameha" came after the Hadoken, but it was in fact the other way around. Should this attack be mentioned in the article? After all, the article does mention the "Dragon Ball Attack" in Worms, and describes it as "basically a Hadoken".  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.200.64.19 (talk) 09:52, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Similarities with Kamehameha 

message: This is false because there isn't another article with the title "Hadoken" nor there's a description of the technique in the articles about the characters that are listed. If you're gonna delete all the info about the technique you might as well delete the whole thing. A brief description of the technique and an incomplete list of characters who use it does NOT warrant an entry, so either restore the page to its original and informative content, or delete it entirely 201.240.107.16 (talk) 03:20, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Essentially an article about the variations of the Hadoken are just a list of gameplay differences between the characters themselves, which is redundant since the character articles themselves are supposed to take care of that (and FYI I'm working on it). And since Ryu is the original character to use this technique (and the Shoryuken), he's the best suitable merge candidate. I think the Hadoken is just about as notable as Spider-Man's web-shooters. Its not really worth having an entire article about it.Jonny2x4 (talk) 06:29, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  This disambiguation page lists articles associated with the same title 

message: Okay, so this article needs some major cleanup. There are NO sources whatsoever, and most of it is pure, unadulterated WP:CRUFT. I removed the "Variations" section, as it was pretty much just gameguide stuff. I removed several of the popular culture references, since there was no evidence that many of them were actually references to Street Fighter. The act of shooting a fireball out of one's hands is not something that Street Fighter pioneered, so unless there is more substantial evidence that it is a direct reference to Street Fighter, it should remain out. I also removed several words and sentences here and there to improve the tone of the article and generally de-bloat it. There were a lot of irrelevant parts and side-tracks that I removed. If you have an issue with any of my edits, please say so here. Don't just revert them right away, because this article is in dire need of some help.

thread_title:  Major Cleanup 

message: We def need more emphasis that it's not every character in every game that can use a hadoken. It's unclear and misleading at the moment. In fact, in Street Fighter II, the percentage is 47% for projectiles generally, and only 17% for hadokens specifically (data: http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=34752&page=2).
I suggest we must do one of the following:
1) Rename the article "Projectile attacks". In fact, this would be a better and more useful article to have anyway
2) Rewrite large parts of the article to clarify the problem. If the consensus is that Allen and Dan don't count as hadouken users, then this should be said.
3) Bring back a section with a list of hadouken users. This would illustrate it fully. Maybe have a Category?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.229.148.244 (talk) 19:57, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Renaming the article "Projectile attacks" would cause it to be constituted of mostly original research, which is a big no-no for Wikipedia.  As such, Dan, Allen, Chun-Li and others have no reason to be mentioned here.  And I don't see the necessity for a list of Hadouken users when this article sums it up well enough.  I don't see a list as being required for anyone other than people who only browse articles and don't read their content. JuJube (talk) 00:13, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

text: Honestly, I don't think this article should exist.  There was a more descriptive list of users.  Apparently, it was unilaterally removed.  Fact is, I think this article should be merged back to Street Fighter II as I feel it violates WP:NOT. JuJube (talk) 22:50, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

message: This article states the while the Pyro is performing the Hadouken style move, he mumbles "Kamehameha". Surely this reference should be removed, since Kamehameha isn't the same move. If it was intended to be a hadouken, then he would have mumbled it. Just because the Kamehameha and hadouken are similar moves doesn't mean that they should simply be grouped together.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.178.132.82 (talk) 20:00, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
