They brought in the Original Street Fighter Arcade, the one with the joystick and Two huge Pad buttons that you had to bang real hard to get fierce or Roundhouse. The they brought in SF II "The World Warrior"....From that moment on I was hooked on this game...trying to learn the "Shoryuken" and "Hadoken" from all these Japanese kids that used to play there a lot. I would spend hours and hours, quarter after quarter just so that I can master Guile's Flash kick. Then they brought in SNK's King of fighters.....while it was very good...I was still going back to play Street fighter the most. That was the only game that made me play hooky!!
ahhh.... those used to be the days!!
High five for old school...

Capcom all the way... I like me some tekken, but street fighter is king...

and the original street fighter had machines with 2 buttons and 6 buttons... the 2 button one hurt sometimes...
