      Realistically, that's the most likely answer. But I like to pitch this theory too.
      Look back at how Final Fight was originally going to be "Street Fighter '89" and this game fits what would have been the franchise way better. I think there's a pretty good chance Street Fighter could have been a multiple-genre franchise which merely had street fighting as its central theme. Street Fighter II's insane success may have caused them to rethink that.

    I remember when I was about 8 or 10 years old and I went to the arcade store. With my friends, we always passed quickly until we reached the Final Fight, Knight of the Round, Street Figter II, World Heroes and Fatal Fury. One day, we did not have chips and we were just hanging around there. A little apart, and closer to Galaga and Wonder Boy, there was a game with graphics that seemed even more "old" than these two. After staying for a while to see what it was called, the name "Street Fighter" emerges from the brick wall. The laughter with my friends did not stop. At last we had found the first game. We played some games for laughter, until we managed to defeat Sagat.
    How many memories. Fighting Games Never dies!

    Between 1998 and 2008, with the failure of Street Fighter 3 and the fall of SNK, the only company that maintained faith in 2D fighting games was Ark System Works. Today time gives the reason to those who never gave up.

    • @shinbakihanma2749
      @shinbakihanma2749 6 років тому +12

      Team One Piece Mugen OS can't really fully cosign that statement, unless you point out something I'm missing. I love Arc Sys, but all they had in terms of fighting genre during that period were the guilty gear games, and most of those releases were just revisions or updates of GGXX. Can't really say they had all this faith in 2D fighters, as they weren't creating various fighting series, experimenting nor really creating anything truly impactful until Blazblue in 2008. But much props for Arc Sys being Arc Sys.

    • @teamonepiecemugenos2818
      @teamonepiecemugenos2818 6 років тому +10

      Hello Friend. What I say is based not only on Guilty Gear, but on a series of games that Arc System Works has released. Here is the list of games that came out in the period I mentioned (1998-2008):
      - Guilty Gear (1998)
      - Guilty Gear X (2000)
      - Guilty Gear XX (2005)
      - Melty Blood (2005)
      - Hokuto No Ken (2005)
      - Arcana Heart (2006)
      - Sengoku Basara X (2007)
      - Blazblue (2008)
      After 2008, in addition to Blazblue, the list of games could be doubled at least.
      In any case, the most important thing is not the number of new series that ASW will perform, but at a time when all the traditional companies of the genre are trying to pass everything to 3D gameplay (or directly they think that the genre is dead), ASW made new games. The meaning is more important than the quantity. For those of us who lived those years, it was like finding a spring in the middle of the desert.
      In any case, they were not a few games, and Guilty Gear were not revisions of the same game, but between the first and the XX they had made the entire graphic base again, and doubled or more character roster.
      I clarify that all this I say, is not like ArcSys fanboy. Currently I do not agree with the direction they were taking games like Persona 4A, Under Night in-Birth and Crosstagbattle.
      A greeting.

    An old man now, I remember being absolutely obsessed with an issue of EGM (mostly white cover with Street Fighter artwork) and hoping desperately that I would get to play it. Eventually a local bowling alley would get an arcade version of the game. Every week I would go to that bowling alley and spend every last cent of my allowance on the game. Max's statement about jumping HK into low HK being the sickest combo ever is some of the realist shit I've ever felt about those early days of SF. As dumb as it might sound those were some of my most favorite childhood memories. Because of that I will always love the brand of SF even if the games themselves might leave me a little cold.
    Thank you for this walk down memory lane. While my experiences were different I do have a lot wrapped up in this entire series.

They had to immediately make new updated arcade cabinets just to fix the problem back then, but since these are the 1st versions of the games on this anniversary collection, that literally impossible input reading bullshit CPU is problem is there. Even the best most competitive players couldn't beat it, thats how ridiculous it was. Only way to beat them was to exploit them using M. Bison and looping certain moves that the CPU can't react to. If u want to have fun with ST, definitely play it with a friend or go online, cuz arcade mode for ST was designed to take peoples quarters back in the old arcade days lol.

    I, being born in 1986, had my first experience with SF in 1992 with Champion Edition. I was 6 at the time and wondered into the arcade at the mall. The first thing I saw was an SF Champ Ed cabinet and I was blown away. The larger than life characters doing all of these “over the top moves” (at the time) blew my mind. I was instantly hooked. Being in karate, I was drawn to Ryu and Ken and thought they were the coolest, most badass guys ever. After that I was officially hooked on the series. 26 years later I’m still a fan.

      giftofgab247 Bro! There was an Aladdins Castle in my local mall too! The feeling of walking into that place was nothing short of magic, there was this long hallway (lined with those mirrors that make it look like there's multiple copies of yourself) you had to walk thru to get into the main area, the crisp smell of electronics in the air. The blue lights inside gave it such a great atmosphere. Pure nostalgia!

    Those arcade days where the best times in my life and we didn't know it. Those were the days of playing someone next to you. Beating them and seeing their faces and them spending all their money trying to beat you. We were living in the moment and didn't know how special it was. Seeing you go through the history of street fighter the memory's came in remember going to a lot of arcades playing the best people from different neighbor hoods. Alpha 3 and 2nd impact was my game I remember skipping church going to the arcade.

    When Max talks about learning how to do Hadoken motions it reminded me of my story of when I first got it. I was about ten years old, with about 7 years of fighting games on my belt. One day I wanted to figure out how my brother did all the cool moves whenever we played Vs. so I went to the move list and saw the directions and figured out it was a motion, a flow and not wiggling the analog stick. This was back when I would only do Tatsumaki's facing left lol.

Performing special moves was such a strange concept i saw the motion for dragon punch and i thought how the hell do i do that.

    My first Street Fighter game was SF2 on the SNES and the arcades.
    I remember playing it on the arcades at roller rinks. Anyone remember those?
    I loved that day with Super Street Fighter II came out on the SNES.
    I then play Alpha 2 on the SNES.
    I remember when my friend had SF3 Double Impact on the DreamCast and playing it.
    I also remember playing it in the arcades. I never liked it that much but Second Impact I enjoyed more.
    Capcom Fighting Evolution was trash.
    I remember when Street Fighter IV finally came out on the PS3. Then there was Super Street Fighter IV, Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition, and then Ultra Street Fighter IV.
    You know, I hope that Capcom does more with 'Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection'.
    At the very least, I'd like to see them do things like:
    - Street Fighter Zero 2 Alpha (i.e. Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold)
    - Street Fighter Zero 3↑ or Street Fighter Zero 3↑↑ (i.e. Street Fighter Alpha 3 Upper/Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max)
    How about releasing Ultra Street Fighter IV on disc for the PS4?
    Or what about a collection that has:
    - Hyper Street Fighter
    - Hyper Street Fighter II
    - Hyper Street Fighter III
    - Hyper Street Fighter IV
    - Hyper Street Fighter Alpha
    I'm surprised Capcom hasn't done a "Vs" collections yet:
    - X-Men vs. Street Fighter
    - Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter
    - Marvel vs. Capcom
    - Marvel vs. Capcom 2
    - Capcom vs. SNK Pro
    - Capcom vs. SNK 2
    - SVC Chaos: SNK Vs. Capcom

    • @Klonoahedgehog

    Man. Feels really weird when the I was born in '95, first fighting game I played was the very original Tekken, played Tekken 3 demo in some demo disk and after that, I had completely forgotten that fighting genre existed.
    Not until the announcement of Tekken Tag Tournament 2 I began to have Vietnam flashbacks about horrible inputs of the first game, bought the game on it's release, and later discovered the previous titles and other fighting games, like Street Fighter series.
    And holy ponky donkies I discovered HOW MUCH I HAD MISSED. Living in somewhat poor family fucking sucked back then.
