This screenshot is fake. Totally fake.

Another day means another Street Fighter V rumor, but this time around the details aren’t coming from some random online personality or personal blog. Earlier this morning, Siliconera reported that Alex and Urien, both known for debuting in the Street Fighter III series, will be playable in Street Fighter V.

Of course, it’s important to take this all with a grain of salt. Both characters have been rumored to appear in the upcoming title for quite some time, with some folks even going as far as to fake in-game screenshots of Alex (pictured above).

At this point in time, Shoryuken has not been able to independently verify the details provided by Siliconera’s sources, but we’ll be sure to update this article if we receive word either way.

Dezmu Teaches How to Control Space with Mega Man’s Short Hop Buster Shot in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

A game like Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is all about movement. Good characters in the game are those that can use their movement best to either get in or space their opponents out.

One character who has an interesting application of movement is Mega Man, who can use a combination of his short hops and his buster shots, or lemons as some fans call them, to effectively control the space in front of him.

In his latest tutorial, which you can watch below, Dezmu demonstrates how to perform this technique, dubbed “short hop lemons,” using both the Wii U Pro Controller and the GameCube controller. Learning this trick can help Mega Man players effectively shut down any opponents trying to get in on him.
