Most of the players in the game hall are small fart children in primary and secondary schools, and they do not have much insight and experience. Addicted to the game, but unable to understand the story told in the game and the identities of several optional characters. It is precisely in this way that various strange nicknames have been born. But the strange thing is that no matter how weird the nickname is, as long as it is based on the characteristics of the character, other people will know who you are talking about as soon as they hear it.
Nicknames, which are called differently in different regions.
In the early years, players were interested in anything arcade-related. However, there is no magazine that introduces the game, and you can't even see the poster, let alone the surrounding area of the game.
Years later, when we first saw the arcade poster online, the excitement was self-evident.
The arcade is not a civilized place, so players will name their characters with all kinds of sexually related or insulting names. Especially the names of female characters, although others will know who you are talking about when they hear them, but most of these names cannot be made in the hall of elegance.
The first female character most players come into contact with should be Chun Li! No one in the game hall called her Chunli, and calling her real name seemed a bit inconsistent. What did everyone call it back then?
As far as I know, there are: Tintin Cat, Cousin, Sister, Meituo, Biaozi, Female, Chinese Chick, Little Chick, Cai Niu, Bo Niu, Little Lisi, Mother-in-law, Little Yan, Little Girl, Little Niang... It is estimated that there are at least a few hundred nicknames in the whole country!
By the time of "The King of Fighters", players basically knew the names of the characters through magazines and Hong Kong comics, but none of them honestly called names. Because in a place of true temperament like a game hall, it feels a bit pretending to be too cultured or knowledgeable. For example, "Second Order Hall Red Pill" is generally called Electric God, Red Pill or "Second Order" can be, called "Second Order Hall" is not enough, the two words are the most simple and clear grounded.
So, what nicknames did everyone give to the girls in "The King of Fighters" back then?
Liana
Mad Girl, Catwoman, Anna, Military Girl, Female Ghost, Wild Cat, Mad Rabbit, Bomb Girl, Violent Girl, Flight Attendant
Liana's image is more special, dressed more conservatively in her early years, and her body stands straighter, so it does not make people think of wrongdoing.
Because of the relationship of mercenaries, it is called "military sister" and "bomb girl" by many people;
He is relatively tall and wears a uniform when he appears, which is called "flight attendant" by some players;
"The King of Fighters 97" first appeared in a violent state, and began to be called "Mad Girl", "Mad Rabbit", "Female Ghost", and "Mad Cat".
In order to create momentum, Hong Kong Manga also deliberately put crazy Liana and Rampage Yagami-an together, and as a result, MAX Yajin-an won.
I don't know the fire dance
Fire Dance, Dance Sister, Little Dance, Fan Child, Sister Bo, Boba, Da Nai, Big Sister, Boss Lady, Milk God, Big Milk Mother, Cow
Many of Fire Dance's nicknames are based on her bread, after all, she is the coolest-dressed and most popular character in the game.
I wonder if you remember the first time you saw the fire dance style after many years? "How can someone dress like this, it's really shameless."
A few years later, "I don't know if the fire dance can be covered if I wear it less!" ”
The shape of the fire dance has been a topic of conversation for many years, but few people have noticed that the costume has changed between 94 and 15. It's just the ornaments and patterns on the clothes.
Nowadays, when the anchors of a mobile game are broadcasting, they will always call "fire dance" and "fire dance", and older people know what this is all about, and the game hall is just an ordinary nickname! Slightly younger viewers don't do it, they don't know that fire is a surname, and they can't call it that.
Athena Mamiya
Student Girl, Star Girl, Little Strawberry, Little Girl, Wind Scratch Girl, Little Nizi, Egg Girl, Doll, Jin Yijiao, Qigong Girl
Athena Asamiya has more identities in "The King of Fighters": high school student, idol singer, inheritor of Chinese boxing, descendant of the goddess Athena, inheritor of the power of the phoenix, plus the Sentaka Chiri Leg Essence character created for her by SNK, so that she has a fresh look in various versions, and once became the most popular character in "The King of Fighters".
Because she has the decoration of stars on her head, she is called "Star Sister" by many people;
She may have been wearing a student outfit when she appeared, so she had the nickname "Student Sister";
The voice is sweet and comfortable to listen to, plus her shape is mainly bright red, and she was called "Little Strawberry" in the later stage.
I don't know how many nicknames have appeared over the years, but in recent years we generally like to call it "Athena".
Kula
Ice girl, ice girl, robot girl, blue-haired girl, ice doll
Because Kura looks small and cute, she is generally not given insulting nicknames. Often nicknames are used based on her own attributes. It is precisely because of this that the ice girl and the ice girl are the most used.
It is generally called Guna in Hong Kong comics, and this name is also the most widely spread. After all, many people left the game hall and learned about this character after watching Hong Kong comics.
Sharmi
Hong Kong comics call: Shermei, Silkumei, Sherumei, Snow Meter, Thunder no Sharmei
Nicknames: Electric Mother, Electric Girl, Liu Hai Girl, Wrestling Girl, Lei Po, in short, all revolve around her throwing skills and electric attributes.
During the "King of Fighters" period, there has always been a saying of Lei Gong Electric Mother, Lei Gong refers to Red Pill, and Electric Mother refers to Sharmi. At that time, it was also rumored that Sharmi was the older sister of Red Maru and Kyo Kusanagi was the older brother of Shingo Yabuki, which was convinced for us little fart children who had not seen it.
It is said that Sharmi's natural thunder and lightning can crush the red pill in the plot, but it has never been shown.
Vip
Hose Queen, Whipgirl, Queen, Whip Girl, Cira, SM, Pistol Girl
Vip's nickname is basically related to the weapons she brings, and the whip girl and whip girl are the most used. When "The King of Fighters 99" was popular, many people liked to choose her, the advantages and disadvantages were more obvious, the attack was particularly strong, but the defense was relatively weak.
Weipu is a new character in the Sound Nest chapter, and SNK specially added a lot of plot for her in "The King of Fighters 2000", which is obviously intended to bring K' and K'-related characters to all. Vip is a clone of K's older sister Cyra, and has a small amount of Cera's memories. Guricha, on the other hand, is a clone of K', who has more memories than K', and believes that Weipu is his sister.
Of course, there is no mention of it, welcome to communicate in the comment area! The editor will reflect it in the next article.
Although arcades have become a piece of history in the development of the game, they have not been forgotten for many years, but have always been sought after by nostalgic players.
Now it is the world of the post-00s, and all kinds of new games are emerging one after another.
And our generation of players has already stopped thinking, and no matter how fun new games are, they are not interested.
After many years of wandering, we look back again and realize that the carefree time in the arcade was really too luxurious
