***please excuse my english, i'm french***

We've all notices the Jade's feet in the prison cell...
That's nice that the incorporate some old kombatant in this game... I get more and more excited everyday!
What I don't like... is, if my eyes are ok, Jade's leg look white!
In my head Jade was always a black girl....
And I really wished that in her next aparition she would be portayed as a mean-black-street-girl (you know those girl that shake the head and shake the finger when they yell in arguments)...
Anyways, that was just my two cents!
Thanks!
I feel better now!

Don't take this the wrong way, but isn't it enough that Jax has been ghetto-fied beyond repair? Jade deserves better I think.

in my opinion jade should be white... just because she was white in her mk2 debut... then all of a sudden she was black.... after i had a white fighter engraved in my mind.... it would be like making jax white in the next game..... i don't mind images changing but not skin colors lol... like noob saibot he has white skin now? i dot' like that either but oh well.... i have no problem with jade either way she's sweet... but they need to make up there damn minds and stick to it lol.. no more of this michael jackson bullshit with skin swapping....

I always figured her skin was more of latin base. But really, both Asian, African, and Hispanic races can be quite dark. My guess, as it has always been, is that Jade is just a dark Asian. She's named after a chinese precious mineral, after all.

Dude if you mention turning Jade into a 'Gangsta bitch" again I be very very angry, that is a very stereotypical way to depict her, or idiotic seeing as she doesn't live on any streets and lives in Edenia and probally couldn't imagine an urban type of life... I think she should stay darker skinned, I was kind of confused when they kept changing Ermac's skin color between the versions of UMK3 and MKT... later

What the fuck? Um, no. Jade isn't black. She doesn't even have black features. Thus turning her into a "gangsta-bitch" is the most retarded idea ever concieved for an MK game. Zebron makes more sense then that. Ugh. People.

Jade must never be turned into some 'Gangsta bitch'! I would be seriously angry if they ever did that to her! It's awful how Jax is now!

As for her skin colour, I prefer the idea of her being Latino maybe, with a darker skin colour. Either way, she is Jade despite her skin colour.

I think even in MK2 it was fairly evident that Jade was darker skinned. I never really liked her at all and perfer Mileena, so I'd rather her be locked up. However, I'd rather have her back than Jax.

Gangsta Bitch Jade and Ghetto Jax could have a rivalry going on between them. Jade could pull a jack move on Jax and take his bling bling(gold mk medallion)and it could start a whole turf war and...and...no.

I'm teribly sorry if I've offended some people...
I made sure not to call it "Gangsta Bitch" caus that's offending...

To explain a bit better my idea would be: Jade as a dark skined person with attitude (she as pezzaz, no?).
Think of Alicia in Survivor...
Or Fantazia in American Idol...
I mean, A black girl with class!!
That was my point!
Sorry again if I've offended people!
That was not my point!

Street Fighter had a character named Birdie. Here's a picture of him:

Then his apperance in Street Fighter Alpha series:

His reasoning:

So what's to say Midway won't use this reasoning?
