A look back at some fighting game series that are no longer with us but would be nice to see return.
Capcom recently revealed interest in reviving their dormant IPs, so it's time to look at which Capcom series would make sense to return.
Breath of Fire, Knights of the Round, Saturday Night Slam Masters, a proper Bionic Commando game, Ghosts and Goblins. I am all down for Dino Crisis loved 1 and 2 one thing I like about Capcom is their massive library of games that need to be brought back to life. Next to Konami, Namco, Sega, old Squaresoft, Capcom was and is another one of my favorite developers. I would like it if Disney would just let Capcom make a Marvel game or two or Disney should let Capcom handle some Disney games. Capcom pulled of some great games with both Disney characters and Marvel characters.
Breath of fire would be number one choice.
Glad to see it getting some love in the comments. I loved these games 1 through 4.
Not dragon quarter
Dark Stalkers, any fighting game - or side scroller - really, just not with SF's current art direction.
There's more to this package than just a Darkstalkers party. Though that's reason to celebrate enough.
It's because they are all good fighting games separately. Does look like a great package of games and features if you don't have these games already or have emulated them.
Speaking of collections, can I get the arcade Bionic Commando, the NES version, a remake of the Gameboy version, Elite Forces and Bionic Commando Rearmed 1 and 2 thanks. The 3D one only if Capcom rebuilds it themselves to look and be more like rearmed.
So many collections can be made.Which could lead to more collections like other fighting and game collections. Like Power Stone, Mega Man collection or even a Mega Man Legends remake to Ratchet and Clank level. Call it Mega Man World and use the name for a game.
Getting ahead of myself.
You know what else would be essential?
A collection that featured
- X-Men: Children of the Atom
- Marvel Super Heroes
- X-Men vs. Street Fighter
- Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter
- Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes
- Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes
That’d more than rejuvenate interest in their second most successful fighting game series
I’m hyped. I’m buying because I want another darkstalkers. There are also a few others I’ve never tried. Red something or another?
Hyper Street Fighter 2 is the greatest Street Fighter of all time possibly the greatest fighting game of all time. If you argue against this you will meet your quick end by Akuma
Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors
Night Warriors: Darkstalkers’ Revenge
Vampire Hunter 2: Darkstalkers’ Revenge
Street Fighter II The Anniversary Edition
Red Earth
Vampire Savior: The Lord of Vampire
Vampire Savior: The Lord of Vampire 2
Thank You, Capcom!!
Physical release?
Plus celebrate Sonic’s 30th anniversary with a trio of titles: Sonic Mania, Team Sonic Racing and Sonic Forces.
YES! Bloody Roar..."Moreover, its publisher was Hudson Soft which is now owned by Konami,".
I just died a little inside.
Looks like we will never see a return of this mighty fighting game.
Maybe Konami will make a pachinko game of it!!
