Origin of "EX"
Just out of curiosity, where did the "EX" come from in the website's name? Did it come from the 1996 Street Fighter game?

That's what I was thinking. I remember hearing that Mike likes to play the Street Fighter games, so that was the first thing that came to mind.
This coming from a guy who has never played any of the Street Fighter games...

Back in December 1997, a cute little 14-year-old Mike said:
"Vegetto's the strongest character! I like Street Fighter EX!"
I wish there was more to this story.

Didn't you also make a Dragon Ball x Street Fighter crossover fanfic that in it you made Akuma and Cell fuse to Akcell((or Akucell))?VegettoEX wrote:Back in December 1997, a cute little 14-year-old Mike said:

To your credit I think that's a clever pun if nothing else.I'm more surprised anybody liked Street Fighter EX .SHINOBI-03 wrote: Didn't you also make a Dragon Ball x Street Fighter crossover fanfic that in it you made Akuma and Cell fuse to Akcell((or Akucell))?
I'm really, really glad I'm not stuck with my old SN from when I was 14.

I imagine on this forum it would've been Goucell!SHINOBI-03 wrote:Didn't you also make a Dragon Ball x Street Fighter crossover fanfic that in it you made Akuma and Cell fuse to Akcell((or Akucell))?
Which is far less punny.
I wonder if all the brow-beaten SFEX fans pointed fingers and laughed in revenge when SFIV was announced and a lot of the hardcore Super Turbo/Third Strikers actually liked it.
