#StreetFighterII in #NintendoSwitch replaces the flag of Hong Kong game character with China's Emblem

#Capcom has recently released a video game Capcom Arcade Stadium in #NintendoSwitch, which contains 32 classic games such as Street Fighter II: Turbo.

A Japanese user recently noticed that the flag of a Hong Kong game character, Fei Long, was changed to the flag of the People's Republic of China and shared the photo on Twitter.

The photo has caused some heated debates, and some criticised that the company's political correctness has gone too far.

"Fei Long" was a game character in Street Fighter II in reference to Bruce Lee. In the game, although his representing country was shown as Hong Kong, the national flag beside it was the flag of China.

Some users pointed out that it was not the first time Capcom has replaced Hong Kong’s flag in its games. Since 2018, Fei Long’s representing country flag in Street Fighter II in arcade game version has been replaced from the British Hong Kong flag (Dragon and Lion flag) to the regional flag of Hong Kong in order to “follow the trend”.
