Definetely classics, specifically third strike and the alpha 2 series

6 and sf3 kinda tie for me. I really enjoyed the arcade ladder with ratings and enemy selection in sf3. 6 just came out the gate so hard, so fast. Hell of an apology for the sf5 launch.

MVC2 :3

3rd strike, SF4 and SF6 (from how good it's been so far) are looking to be the pinnacles of the SF franchise, and what they should strive to do

Dmc? crash?

yeah, I was gonna say I'm pretty sure take(tah kay) is an actual name

That's kinda wild, tbh

@Niosai yeah they've made it illegal since then, with it being a scummy practice to prevent their employees being offered a job with better pay and whatnot

Thanks for the info

Infamously SNK poached a bunch of the people from Capcom after the first Street Fighter anyway and those people went on to create Fatal Fury. This is why Fatal Fury actually feels more like a continuation of SF1 than SF2 does.

Fun fact, it didn't actually even work as a tactic. Famously SNK's Fatal Fury was developed by people who previously worked on the original Street Fighter.

I've seen speculation about it but never any official sources confirming it 😭

That's correct, long time ST player here, the English version of the game has a difficulty glitch, the Japanese one is normal, that's why all us competitive ST players use "Grand Master Challenge" (the Japanese version)

​@@Kinshinobiwhat about the Super sf2 turbo? I think the ai is broken

@@bakihanma4826 that's because it is in the American version

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qshplq1ysbHWpIk.html Here is Justin Wong doing a US ST version arcade run. Tho I suppose that due to the bug, no matter what difficulty you select, it always goes on 8. So for a regular player this one is almost impossible challenge (I never beat american version as well. However I beated other versions)

LMAO that makes too much sense

So he IS a detective lmao

@@Niosai Probably, a lot of arcade fighting game characters were based on those from popular manga series

Not only a lot of licensed games, but there was more of a focus on 3D fighters in general. Tekken, DOA, Soul Calibur, and even VF were still getting games made left and right, not to mention other franchises like MK and KoF trying to enter the 3D scene. 2D still had its thing too with Guilty Gear, Blazblue (2009) and yet again KoF, just that they weren't the main attraction anymore. I think the 2000's was more so a dark time for CAPCOM fighters, because aside from ports of older games and very few new titles (CvS 1+2 and Capcom Fighting Jam), nothing came out for several years until SF4 released by the end of the century. Dark age for Capcom fighters? Probably, yeah. For fighting games in general? Nah.

I actually did play some of the other versions as you can see in the video, I just didn't go into much detail because I don't think people would enjoy me spending that much time on it 😅

Was looking for this comment. Felt like he lied because the title claims he played every street fighter. And honestly the evolution of every version of 2, that alone is perfect for a video. And yet he skipped and went ro “the best” version out of the bag. Which is kinda misleading and also a huge missed opportunity. Every version has its story and reason for existing

My favorite was Super. The snes one. Was looking forward to him getting to that one and comparing

I plan on it eventually! lol Kingdom Hearts first though :)

Appreciate it! :) Also, if you're talking about SSF2T, this is actually something that's known about the game. Even changing the difficulty dip switch doesn't fix the issue, it's absolutely bonkers!

Wow, I had no idea. I'm new to arcade machines and MAME, but its insane.@@Niosai

Thank you! That means a lot to me :)

That means a lot! Thank you :)

Ohhhhh that definitely would trip me up, yeah

So this got kinda lost when I converted it to a 2-video format, but I actually have an explanation for that. The TLDR is that Final Fight is what Street Fighter spun off from, but I'd consider it its own series and I think it deserves its own dedicated video at some point. :)

@@Niosai Oh thanks for the reply, thats great to hear!

Happy birthday!!

@@Niosai thank you!😁

Also in the old games it's better to go slower than the faster. 1.↙️⬇️↘️➡️ 2.↘️⬇️↙️⬅️ 3.↙️⬇️↘️➡️↗️+K

Interesting! EX had a lot of potential and I'm honestly kind of surprised Fighting EX Layer isn't bigger than it is.

I appreciate that 🥹

Thanks!

YOOOO what was your favorite? (And least favorite, also did you play the movie ones lmao)

25:09 oh god I could actually tell. I'm IN TOO DEEP

​​@@Niosai The movie ones (and EX) were the only ones I didn't play haha. My favorite definitely has to be SF3: Third Strike, just from how diverse and fresh everything feels, from the characters, music, art style and controls! (Alpha 3 is a close second). Least favorite is definitely SF1, which a friend and I stumbled upon in an arcade and struggled so hard just to do basic attacks 😂

@@CrossOutBryce Did you get to try the punch button version 👀

I think I was trying to talk about SF2 in general there, but maybe I'm misremembering. Either way, no one else has pointed it out so you're the first :)

SF1? Why so?

@@Niosai because the game is one of the first Fighting game I ever played (not being biased) also I do have the Original arcade machine because my Pop worked at a Arcade (which is the one I went to when I was 5) but it closed down and his boss said “keep street fighter, because u are a great worker. Sorry to see the arcade go :(“ but I got a surprise from my pop and I was playing it all day looong

@@SukunaFanYT Was it the one with the pressure buttons??

@@Niosai no they aren’t

Not old, games are timeless! I'll definitely do a GTA video sometime, just gotta see how long that would take

I actually re-recorded the times I referenced his name after finding out how it was actually pronounced 😂

Im with you, wtf who says it like Zan-Gi-Ef.

To be clear, it'd definitely be a bit much to discuss every single release at length, I just think jumping straight to SSF2T means you're missing out on something.

Another minor nitpick - You didn't mention how broken the EX specials are in the console port of The Movie - You can perform them infinitely if your super gauge is full and it never empties. Sagat's high-low and low-high fireballs are OP lol

I'll be honest, I have footage recorded of earlier versions, but realistically the only real input I could have given was "It looks slightly different and runs slower(?)" because I'm not super well-versed. And I just didn't think it'd be entertaining to watch me blunder my way through that 😅

I don't know if having a cameo in Streetwise is much of a flex... 😂😭 I'll make sure to mention that in the Final Fight video lmao

Someday! I'm really bad at those though lmao

I explained in the video that every version of every game is outside of the scope I was going for, but it definitely would be cool to do a version comparison of my own sometime! :) I absolutely want to check out crazy stuff like the GB version of SF2 or the GBA version of Alpha

It's definitely planned!

Oh weird! It had chapters when I uploaded and they disappeared!

I want to do this, I actually bought the collections recently :)

Me personally? I'm a bit biased since I'm kinda burned out on Street Fighter at the moment haha. I think it depends on my mood, they definitely feel like completely different experiences even though they're both fighting games!

I want to do MK but I think KZfaq would demonetize it ):

Part 2 should be out soon :)

I mean, Skullonania is in Fighting EX Layer!

I definitely want to! Just gotta find out how to do it without getting demonetized for violent imagery 😅

@@Niosai I've seen this prob either get a sponsor or do slight censorship. The sponsor route is the best way to go when it comes to this I've also seen people use Patreon and channel membership to compensate for the irrational rules of KZfaq

Don't worry, I have a whole thing about that and Duel in Part 2 😅

I thought maybe it was just a style thing 😅

I mentioned this a few times, but I ended up having to cut the video in half for length! I'll have part 2 out soon :)

That's the official pronunciation! First time I heard it, it caught me completely off guard lmao It's weird, right?

Soon! I had a couple of delays but it should be in the next few days :)

@@Niosai sweet

So my hangup is that everyone says it's a bug, but I can't find any official word on whether it was a bug or an intentional decision. It being a bug is widely accepted as fact, but there's no actual source for the information so it seems like it's actually completely unknown 😅 Thanks for giving the rest of the video a chance! :)

I did play 2nd Impact, but it didn't make it into the video 😅 I also played a bit of Online Edition on PS3 and ended up scrapping a whole spiel about how much I love the soundtrack 😂

@@Niosai It's just bc personally I prefer 2i over 3s so I'd love to know ur opinion on the game itself, specially bc all SF3 games are a bit different in a lot of aspects (for example, the parry system, the fact only the later 2 have ex moves, only 2i has secret bosses, the soundtrack is also different in all the three games, etc.)

Still in progress! It should be out soon :)

I mentioned this a few times in the video, but this is part 1. :) Part 2 should be out soon!

@@Niosai ooo (actually maybe I need to rewatch it bc I don't remember any peak (2nd impact) talk)

@@Omar_ZX I didn't specifically mention 2nd impact for reasons I stated in the video, but I did talk about New Generation and how the game changed between versions!

@@Niosai I see

I actually said it "Zan geef" before I heard it said in a cutscene!

Oh my god lmao

Would you believe that most people say it wrong? I'm saying it how it's actually supposed to be pronounced for once 😅 I actually was saying it wrong ("Zan-geef") until I played Street Fighter V and multiple characters said it the way I say it in the video.

@@Niosailove the way you say it

I'm also nowhere near good but I still did it because I'm financially irresponsible 😅

Yep!

Yay😂

Or every street fighter 2 version, the skyrim of fighting games 😂
