Talk: Vega

Re: Chun-LiEdit

At what point during the Animated Movie is it suggested that Vega is in love with Chun-Li? The only interest he shows in her is trying to kill her.--Evilsbane 15:22, November 4, 2009 (UTC)

~He isn't, at least, there is nothing to suggest that he is just as you put it. I have fixed that -Axle Starr

Um in Trivia where it says his mask was drawn over his finger I don't see that. I think that's just where his finger bends. ^—JuriHan 15:58, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Birthdate Edit

There's a conflict between related wikia here; what's the source for the date given? The CapCom Wikia has it as 24 April. 208.66.39.59 06:04, December 10, 2012 (UTC)

Vega's birthdate is: January 27, 1967 (whether you go with the birth year or not concerning canon). I found Vega's bio/profile from Special Championship Edition on GiantBomb: http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0/8124/381611-street_fighter_2_special_champion_edition___vega_bio.jpg

I also found this video concerning all the birthdates of the Super Street Fighter II characters on YouTube (which also mentions the January 27, 1967 date for Vega): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNm0u3KGRAo

In such cases, it's best to use the latest given birthdate, i.e. the ones posted on the SFIV site. Lord Grammaticus (talk) 04:47, December 13, 2012 (UTC)

   

     Hmmm...I've checked the English websites for Street Fighter IV, Super Street Fighter IV and Street Fighter x Tekken under Vega's profile and they don't mention his birthdate at all. You must mean the Japanese website then? Let me check: http://www.capcom.co.jp/sf4/balrog.html#character_btn

Well, the Japanese version does still back up what I put down above. It still says for Vega: January 27th! There seems to be a BIG problem when it comes to what Capcom USA puts down and what Capcom Japan puts down concerning canon, especially in the earlier days of Street Fighter (otherwise we wouldn't have Vasili's translations and the Street Fighter Plot Canon Guide). Just as well, the Udon Street Fighter World Warrior Encyclopedia (released in 2010) also confirms Vega's birthdate as January 27th too!

Full name?Edit

Hi, I have a question about Vega's name. In Capcom Database this wiki user, Andreas.Karloskova, made a edit to the Vega article there. He changed Vega's name to what appeared to be his full name, "Vega Fabio Ra Seruda". I'm pretty sure Vega doesn't officialy have a full name, so I asked Andreas whats his source was for this, he simply said it was shown at Capcom's official website (he didn't specify which).

I would like to know if anyone here knows if there is any truth to this. --85.24.209.81 16:48, April 28, 2014 (UTC)

Most likely bogus. As far as I know, the only time Vega had a surname was in the Street Fighter II V series, where he was Vega Fabio La Cerda. But that's in the same vein as Chun-Li Zhang in Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, not canon. General Awesomo (talk) 17:21, April 28, 2014 (UTC)

Indeed, just as General Awesomo correctly said, this belongs in the same category of names as Viktor Sagat, Ryu Hoshi, Charlie Nash and William F. Guile: pure non-canon material. - Holothurion 10:26, April 29, 2014 (UTC)

Vega's "psychopathy" Edit

Hello! I have a question regarding Vega's personality, his "psychopathy" in the article.

It states:

"In terms of personality, Vega is also similar to Patrick Bateman from the novel American Psycho by Brett Easton Ellis. Both are extremely vain and good looking serial killers, obsessed with beauty and perfection; both also become enraged if their face is ever damaged, or their looks are compromised. Their only substantial difference is that Bateman is a true psychopath, while Vega is not."

Can someone clarify this statement for me?  I'm a crime-show buff, so I am familiar with psychopaths and sociopaths. I am also writing a story about him and I want to make sure I can stay as close to his character as possible.

The only logic I can figure out from this is that, if he's not a psychopath, is he a sociopath?

Thanks!

VEGA ETYMOLOGY Edit

Hi all.

Im spanish and i think there are a mistake in "Etymology" section.

Yes, in costellation Lyra there are a star called Vega, but the origin of the surname is not that star. This surname is pretty common in spain an its etymology is not from the star, It is purely coincidental with the star's name.

In spain, there are a lot of surnames concerning places. Vega is the name given to the growing areas in the Spanish countryside.

This surname has some variations, like "de vega" or "de la vega". For example a famous spanish writer calle Lope de Vega https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lope_de_Vega

But definitely this surname does not come from the star's name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.15.93.192 (talk • contribs)
