The first time you played a fighting game (excluding Karate Champ, etc. you know what kind of fighting game I mean) who did you use first. Who is the first character you ever used in a fighting game? For me, it was Chun Li. I was able to use her well in SF2 and learned her moves quickly. Of course, later on Ken became my fav. Street Fighter character, but only after I got used to his moves (it took me a while to get used to the uppercut when I was a kid). Anyway, Chun Li was the first fighting game character I ever used.

I had a funny little history. When about the first fighting games came out I wasn't exactly all estatic about it. For those who caught it the first time I said it.. I HATED videogames as a child. I couldn't STAND them at all. They were fun from time to time SORT OF. I really genuinely liked being off in my room reading instead. (Yeah yeah, the destined nerd. And now I'd rather be off writting up html.) But today I've learned a good healthy love for the games. ^_~ I like them.. though I don't play them too often at all. It took a well developed and pretty RPG to finally draw me in.. so sue me. And of course at that time the games were good enough to keep my hooked long enough for my soul to fall into the abyss.
Anyway.. enough with the rant. I did play SOME videogames. The first character I ever used in the first fight game I played was Raiden, Mortal Combat. Yeah.. o_O Raiden. He was the only one I could manipulate well enough. (I REALLY sucked at fight games back then. I mean REALLY.) But he did start me out on something. I thought he was pretty darn cool. (I've been a fan of white hair and Asian coolness since I was just a little girl. It only helped he had a cool staff and flung around lighting. Ok, so sue me.. I like a good show and flair. ^_^)

The no-name guy from Karate-champ...:)
Well, okay...the first name fighting character I played was Chun Li. She had the only special move I could pull of at the time (lightning kick) and I just wanted to give a female character a try. Of course I feel in love, and continue to use her to this day....

My first was Blanka. Then Gouki. Gouki is the best character in SF.

Dhalsim in SF2:CE. I played with my cousins, and since none of us could actually do anything but a charge move or continuous tap move, he seemed almost invincible.

It was Ryu on SF2. But now I prefer Ken and his powerful shoryuken or SNK chars like Takuma or Iori. Ryu...long time no play with him!

Mmm... not counting Yie-Ar Kung Fu and Fighting Street (SF1), my first character would have been either Guile or Zangief.
IIRC even back then I was fed up from fighting so may Ryu players day after day :)

Mine was Blanka. I don't remember why, but it was something along the lines of, "Dude its a beast, he can't be beaten!"
Course when Blanka got hit when doing his ball move he would take like double the damage and that changed my mind pretty quickly...

Well if I can't mention pre-Street Fighter games then it would be Ryu from SF1...the two button version.

It can be pre-Street Fighter, but I don't think having one or two generic characters really constitutes as choice. I just mean a game with different characters to choose from (SF1 is also generic).

Mine would be Cody from Final Fight! When SFII hit the arcades, I moved on to playing Ryu...

Mine was Guile from Street Fighter 2. Still one of my personal favorites. After him I used Zangeif. I remember getting so mad at the SPD that I almost destroyed the game. It took me 2 years before I could do the SPD on call.
I still need to find somewhere to host my tags.

I think the first was Ken, from SF2. I chose him because everybody else chosed Ryu, and I wanted to try something different... finding that he wasn't different at all! The next were Chun Li and Guile.
Time has come... crash down on the wicked! Meteor!

I hate to admit it,but Chun Li was my first. Since there was no Cammy back then,and she seemed cool,so I used her. I was pretty good with her,too.

This is embarrassing, but E Honda was my first...Coz I do not know how to actually manipulate the joystick to do special moves like Haodoken, so I chose the only guy who gives me great pleasure in just pounding buttons....And I thought the thousand-hand slap was cool...=)
Of coz I was wiped out from competition completly...
The only antidote to my poison is death...Hey! No fair! You have a resurrection move??

Chun-Li. I learned early on that I dispised overplayed/overused characters (Ryu/Ken/Guile/pretty much the rest of the SF II characters.). A pet peeve that still bugs me to this day; thanks to Capcom never making a game without sticking SF II characters in them (Well, most games anyway.).

I believe Chun-Li got most of my play time in SF2. Before that, it was the guy in Kung Fu for the NES. OH YES.
