Cham Cham (チャムチャム) is a character who was introduced in SNK's fighting game Samurai Shodown II. Despite being a popular character she was almost never featured again until recently when she appeared in Samurai Shodown VI as a playable character.

[edit] History

[edit] Samurai Shodown 2

Cham Cham is the younger sister of Tam Tam. She lost the Tangil stone (a relic of her village) when she "borrowed" it to play with. To find the stone, she sets out with her pet monkey Paku Paku (who is actually Tam Tam).

[edit] Trivia

Each of the three techniques where Paku Paku attacks the opponent are special moves belonging to Tam Tam, the only one absent is obviously his only weapon affiliated move, Spinning Sword, since Paku Paku is indeed unarmed.
While a catgirl in appearance, Cham Cham's mannerism is more feline; she walks on all fours when disarmed (she holds her weapon in one hand when she has it), for example. Her taunts are also feral--in one, she meows and stretches like a cat, while in the other, she sits on her haunches and scratches behind her ear with her foot.
Paku Paku is a playable character in Samurai Shodown VI
Cham Cham made an appearance as a playable extra character in the Playstation version of Samurai Shodown IV where she had additional moves and a Bust mode. Somehow these additions did not make it to her second canon appearance in Samurai Shodown VI.
She also appears briefly in the fixed and uncensored versions of Samurai Shodown V Special where she celebrates together with Tam Tam after he performed his fatality move.
