Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike Super Meter Voice Sampled from 1966 Live
Action Batman Series
|
|
Throughout
the decades, fighting game fans and historians have discovered the original source
material for iconic character designs, illustrations, and even audio. The
latest discovery, pointed out by Fairly Frequent FG Facts on Twitter,
reveals the Street
Fighter III: 3rd Strike sound clip (voice), used when one meter of
the super gauge filled, is in fact sampled from the 1966 live action Batman
series starring Adam West. The voice saying "Let's Go" is
believed to be Adam West himself. Yes, we've been listening to the
original voice of Batman while playing SFIII: 3rd Strike for
all these years and never knew it!
On a related note... a few years back, someone also discovered the source
material behind one of Elena's
victory animations in the Street Fighter III series. "Rotoscoping" is an animation technique that
animators use to trace over motion picture footage, frame by frame. As you
can see in the tweet by @aurich below, the dancing woman in this 80's David Lee Roth video was the
source for
the rotoscoping used for Elena in SFIII: 3rd Strike.
