Probably a known Megaman X Fact.

[Berry]

In Megaman X,there is a reference to the Capcom series Street Fighter, a hidden upgrade capsule housing the Hadouken Fireball (complete with X actually yelling "Hadouken!" in a high pitch voice) upgrade was placed into the game. It is not known why X does not yell "Hadouken" in Mega Man X Collection.

You can access it in Armored Armadillo's stage after collecting all 4 armor upgrades, all 8 Heart Tanks, and all 4 Sub Tanks (note that you don't have to fill the Sub Tanks). Before you make your way to the end of the level, farm extra lives at the start of the stage by killing the fat bat repeatedly. Make sure your lives counter is 6 or more (more if you're prone to dying while trying to reach the end of the stage).





Note:I don't know if everyone knows this but it is worth the shot.

Didn't Mega Man X2 have the Shoryuken?

Indeed you could.

This was only unlockable during the third Sigma stage vs. being unloackable in a normal boss stage, so its value is much less compared to the +20 Vorpal Hadoken of Maverick Smiting, but the Street Fighter tie-in is still valuable for a DYKG.

[SERIOUSLY THOUGH]

I kinda feel sorry for that boss

Didn't Zero also have the Shoryuken in MMX8 too ?

EDIT: And the "Tatsumaki" too

Zero's rising flame sword gets used from time to time, starting from X4, so it's not surprising, but yeah it's a constant call back to Street Fighter. I don't remember any of the other ones, for some reason I thought the ground smash technique he gets was a callback too.
