The Shoryuken debuted with Ryu in Capcom's Street Fighter in 1987 and became world famous with Street Fighter II in 1991, where both Ryu and Ken used the rising dragon punch. The Japanese name translates loosely to rising dragon fist, and the shouted callout became inseparable from the move in arcades and home ports. Clips of the shout later spread through gaming videos, forums and meme edits, where it remains a shorthand for a devastating uppercut and a sudden, decisive comeback in a fight.
