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.

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!

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