Favorite Video Game Rikishi

[DtotheG]

I could probably add more, but these are the only ones that actually stood out.

Heihachi wore a mawashi in Tekken 4 (to my dismay, xncstudios.tripod.com)

Bunny-San is an extra character in SSX 3. Go to cheats and type in wheresyourtail.

"Your Guy" in the NES game you had no control over, he just wore a red mawashi, and "You" in Oohzouhmo 64 you had control over what he looked like. Therefore, they're different

:-) (Hugging...) (In a state of confusion...) (Bye, bye...)

[sekihiryu]

ganryu rocks :-)

[DtotheG]

My pick was Bunny-San because he was the best rendered...and c'mon, how can anybody resist a sumo wrestler that can snowboard on bamboo dressed as a bunny?

[Stephanoshima]

Without a doubt, E.Honda from Street Fighter II. If only because I don't know a single one of those on the list.

[Manekineko]

As very marginally sumo-related, moved to OT. (Applauding...)

[QttP]

Without a doubt, E.Honda from Street Fighter II. If only because I don't know a single one of those on the list.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to say the same thing.

Sumo Wrestling for the NES was a joke...could run through the game with a controller with a turbo button...

I'm disappointed that E.Honda isn't up there, since I would think he's the most well known, at the least. ;-)

My personal favorite is whoever I play as in Sumo Volleyball (online interactive game)...personally I think he looks kinda like Raiden (in those old lithographs)...if you ever head there, I go by Chiyonofuji....

[aderechelsea]

Honda for me too ....

don't have a clue about the rest of these guys

[DtotheG]

Whoops...forgot about him... (dead serious) can a mod or someone add the three votes? Although some of these names are obscure, I just wanted to bring to light a couple other games/characters not many know about

Without a doubt, E.Honda from Street Fighter II. If only because I don't know a single one of those on the list.

Same boat

[Ryukaze]

"Dejima Sama" whats up bro! lol But yeah E. Honda baby!!!! "Yeeeeeeaaaaaaaaah"! May I also add that Street Fighter is by far the best video game ever made, nothing will ever replace it! lol -

My true favorite is, of course, Asashoryu on PS2s Sumo game. But since you for got to list him, I voted E. Honda. I used him alot. He rocks!

[DtotheG]

I've played w/ E. Honda a few times, and he rules.

However, one thing I hate about fighting games is that you got the huge, muscular guy, but he loses to some little girl with pigtails. I spoof that in a future Episode of Experiments and Crap (it's also in the teaser trailer at xncstudios.tripod.com)

[Fujisan]

I'm not a big fan of video fighting games but I have played Tekken and Streetfighter-I gave the edge to E.honda.
