I played this game to death on my megadrive (genesis) and now occasionally plate third strike.

So amazing to see a bit of street fighter history and funny I'd never noticed Ken's jaundiced eyes and teeth!

The only gaming console I still own is a SEGA Saturn - and a burned copy Street Fighter 2 Alpha practically lives in the disc tray. (I use an Action Replay cartridge solution for booting burned discs called ‘Pseudo Saturn Kai Lite’.)

I am fortunate enough to have a live-in music studio, and it actually lives attached to the secondary monitor in the studio for us to take breaks on and do a few fights to decompress. Pretty much never fails to be a hit.

Just in case your Saturn ever dies the arcade version is well emulated by Final Burn.

Amazing! Absolutely love the alpha series too.

I only briefly had a Saturn and Virtua Cop series is still one of my most intense memories. A light gun game at home with graphics that looked like the arcade to my childhood eyes!

I wonder if kids these days will look back on the ps5 similarly hard to imagine!
