All right, so this may be a weird sinerio, but:

I have the same problem with my son when we play. If I learn something new, I will beat his ass with it till I see hes getting frustrated. So when that happens, I go into teacher mode. I point out what hes doing wrong and I in turn will teach him the new move in question, show him how its punishable, or easily blocked or whatever and let him go to town on me for a few rounds. Hes a smart kid so it doesnt take that long. But when it comes to street fighter its a different story. Id been playing street fighter since I was in junior high and understand the mechanics of the game. He doesnt, so I take advantage and beat him up constantly to the point where he doesnt like to play sf4 with me. Its been so many years since I was totally into sf2 that Im no where near pro so I cant teach him what hes doing wrong cause I really dont know.

You need to sit him down and show him why hes getting hit when you such this, and if you duck this you can punish me with this and so on and so forth. Granted my son is 10 years old, but hes a pretty good Maxi player (check my vids of me and him playing if you like) so if he gets to angry I just tell him to put the controller down and lets go play baseball outside or something. You should try to be more of a teacher. And if he REALLY wants to get better he will accept your teachings.

HRD, my advice, if you would like, would be to learn the mechanics of SF like you have with SC. I learned SC's actual mechanics in about a month, SF about as long. Once you have that, you can teach him like you do SC. You can only teach up to everything you know. Just my own advice, take it or leave it, or tell me to go to hell because its none of my business, either way.
 
HRD, in case you are wanting to learn more of SF, this goes for you as well Faust, here are some 101 videos for SF4/SSF4.

GO TO HELL....lol. Now thats great advice I appreciate it. Ive looked at a ton of sf4 vids. Ive been studying akumas challenge trials or whatever. I cant even clear all those. Then once I do, I have to do the hard ones! My kid and I are pretty even on sf4. I just spam akumas ultra whenever I can. lol But I really do appreciate it!!

Well, that went over about as poorly as I'd hoped.

Friend A, the usually sporting one, played with me for 3 hours. The summary of which would be him getting sore for losing (while playing at a 200% health advantage) and trying to call me frustrated whenever he won (which was a staggering 2 games to who knows how many I had). To top it off, he griped constantly about getting hit with tech traps, wakeup throws, and other things that I had explained to him the means of escaping/working around. While he did start to figure out a way around it, he gave up suddenly after so much progress and decided to just lay on the ground/hop out of the ring/stand still. I even took a break to show him some tricks and combos with his character, which he picked up quickly, and then hopped back into it with the same griping he had before the little learning session. Not sure what to do with him.

Luckily, Friend B didn't jump in so I didn't have to deal with his whining today. So that went over okay I guess.

So out with one problem and in with a new one.
