Barry and Rebecca were originally Gelzer and Dewe
Like with all hit games, each of them had their own development stage, where almost every name of character, weapons and other features were going through some trial period. Before the disgusting Barry and the very dumb-but fun Rebecca, Capcom had other plans for the dynamic duo. Capcom planned that the characters would be Dewey, a slim African-american based on Eddie Murphy who was supposed to be the comic relief of the game, and the slightly more distinct Gelzer, a half-human half-cyborg hulk of a man. Both characters were ditched fairly early in development and replaced by Barry and Rebecca. And some part of me is thankful for that.
