The interface is simple but gets the job done, and load times for the games and features are nearly instantaneous. A Museum mode contains galleries full of original sketches and concept art, an interactive timeline, bios for all of the game's characters, and a jukebox where you can play back all of the game soundtracks. The remaining titles are excellent games that still hold up very well from a gameplay perspective.Įach title is accompanied by a history of the game, detailing the original release date, hardware, trivia, and even secret codes to unlock extra characters or features. That number is padded a little by the various releases of Street Fighter II, or early game renditions that were surpassed by later versions such as Street Fighter Alpha 1, or Street Fighter III: New Generation, but completionists will appreciate their inclusion. This new collection features 12 games, from the original Street Fighter (1987) up to Street Fighter III: Third Strike (1999). Although not nearly as popular as the sequel that would follow, the original Street Fighter came out just over 30 years ago, complete with pressure-sensitive pads (which were switched to the familiar 6 button layout after people injured their hands from hitting the controls too hard).
Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection does right by one of the more enduring legacies of the arcade era, responsible in good part for the popularity of the fighting game genre.
One year after Ultra Street Fighter II's pricey-and-thin cash-in on the Switch, the series' best arcade entries return in a giant, priced-right anthology for pretty much every major gaming platform-and so far, it's absolutely held up to my series-obsessed button mashing. This is how arcade-nostalgia compilations should be done.
