Shotokan


Shotokan is the style of karate that Ken, Ryu, Dan, Sakura and Akuma (from the Street Fighter series) use. I guess Shotokan is, at its heart, 3 moves.
  1. qcf+punch (hadoken or fireball)
  2. f,d,df+punch (shoryuken or dragon punch)
  3. qcb+kick. (tetsumakisenpu kyaku or whirlwind kick)
It seems that every fighing game since Street Fighter has these moves (and the stick motion) incorperated into at least one of its fighters. Just off the top of my head there is You get the idea. All of these fighters share the 3 prime moves and ususally all 3 of those moves are performed the same way that Ryu does em.

Although Heihachi, Jin, Devil, Kazuya don't have a qcf+punch style projectile attack, they all have f,d,df+punch uppercut, and the tatsumakisenpuukyaku (only, they do thiers as f,d,df+4.)
