'''Birdie''' is a [[video game character]] from [[Capcom]]'s ''[[Street Fighter]]'' series of [[fighting game]]s.





(contracted; show full)
* In the ''Street Fighter Alpha'' games, Birdie was supposed to threaten his opponents with the Japanese taunt ''shi ne'' meaning "die" or "go to hell". Because "hell" was considered too strong a word, the final translation ended up being "go to heaven". Therefore, when Birdie executes his special techniques, he is uncharacteristally well-mannered in his threats.
⏎
* In the [[Udon (Comic Company)|Udon]] Street Fighter comics, Birdie makes reference to "Running the [[Geese Howard|Raging Storm]] gang out of the city", which is a subtle jab at rival company [[SNK]].
