Fighting games have made a comeback. Street Fighter, Tekken, Mortal Kombat, and other brawler franchises have been resurrected and have seen a whole new fan base.
Mike D of GoozerNation looks at 5 more fighting games that, in a perfect world, would also see the same sort of love that many other older popular series have seen.
Trevor Walker said: Fighting games have always been able to simultaneously experiment and innovate while staying true to their roots in the best of ways. Mechanics change, crossovers take place, and evolution occurs. One of the best examples of all three can be seen in the coveted guest character.
The fighting genre is full of mini-games, from Street Fighter's car destruction to Tekken Ball. Here's the best Mortal Kombat mini games.

Congrats goes to Matt, Mick, Adam and everyone at Iron Galaxy!
Tomorrow we fight together! I can´t wait!
I love KI (still play the old arcade version) but feel like the Xbox version is like a big intimidating chessboard with no easy way to instruct you to play chess.
The game is so deep in terms of little things to do that it makes Smash Bros melee look like a casual experience.
Honestly, doing a combo Breaker is punish/reward by itself but hey you can add a counterbreaker.
Here's what you also need to know

I agree with the Killer Instincts but what i want really is Mortal Kombat 3 on the PSN store dammit!
Guilty Gear... And Bushido Blade!!!
@DeadlySpartan Mortal Kombat collection has been announced for PSN/XBLA for sometime this year.
I would love to see pit fighter return. Man I lost a lot of quarters on that one.
I loved the Darkstalkers series and the samurai shadow series (wish they'd port the psp collection to the ps3). Anyone remember that awesomely ridiculous game with historical figures as fighters, it had Joan of Arc and Rasputin, man those good old days at the arcade, great memories, I think it was Heroes something?
I'd love to play an HD version of Virtual On. Never had the chance to play it.
