Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection (PS4, XB1, Switch, Steam)

I’d argue V.Ken and Akuma need balancing but other than that yeah. Still kinda weird for it to not be in this compilation.

That sounds about right. Will be nice to have another avenue to play more ST, also good for less tech savvy players who can’t get into FC for whatever reason.

Those were Nintendo exclusive stuff like ST revival so it’s not something of Capcom it’s likely more of Nintendo favor. They were done with a different audience in mind.

Purist are hard to please and I still believe even in future improved releases people will still prefer fightcade,

HD remix and Hyper weren’t bad they just have their own identity and they aren’t like USF2 that have broken VKen, ERyu and any version of Akuma. In future ST expansion they really need to remake Akumas from juggles and air hadouken rather than nerfing him and make those new edge lord version shotos to be nerf damage and vitality because of there juggle advantage.

What I mean of remake Akuma is from the ground up with the current sprites but different properties, juggles and normals. Why not just fix current Akuma? because the base design itself is broken and nobody needs the ST Akumas since they were banned always on tournaments for a long time.

I believe that’s the only way to make him possible and playable.

SSF4 3DS was the same. They made lots of money and then… faded.

USF2 is a game Capcom made to test the waters on the Switch. I doubt there were any long term support plans for it. It’s success enable Capcom to make games for the console. Had the game flopped I doubt we would be getting this collection on it.

So is there lobbies for online or the same bullshit in UltraSF2

I agree. Still is weird to not include it in this though. Not the worst thing in the world. I’d honestly rather have Hyper SF2 than Ultra lol.

4 player lobbies. Sadly not 6 but better than none like ultra.

I’m looking forward to this game. Been grinding V Akuma and V Sakura, i’ll be at that #1 Rank :sunglasses:
They should make all of them playable online though. I really don’t see whats so hard about that.

USF2 had been successful for sales that it meet their target audience even how it isn’t fit our preference, it wasn’t a flop, but it didn’t last long compared to HSF. Agree even Capcom didn’t did a follow up patched because they knew what it was for.

I believe HSF is superior than USF2 and HDR, while HDR is superior than USF2 in terms of balance but USF2 would be more popular and will be more requested as a Title for casual audience because of it’s charm and content.

I guess a couple of balance changes to tame some of the most blatantly overpowered stuff was too much to ask.

Prepare for endless Tatsumakis in HF, Hyoubals in ST and of course:

Balance changes for a game this old is a tricky thing. You risk turning off the fan base, and might make a game just as unbalanced.

Agree the only thing should be balance is Vken, Akuma and ERyu for another ST “expansion” game like Ultra2 and HD remix

It wouldn’t make much sense to rebalance a game in an arcade collection.

Personally, I don’t want a rebalance. I want a new expansion of SF2. Take USF2 and maybe add a new character and just do something new with that old school goodness. It’ll never happen but it sure would be fun.

I want 3rd Strike with Ibuki in it

Funny that this will be the first console port of 3S in a while that has the arcade music. Apparently the developers of 3SOE didn’t even know the game had an arcade soundtrack

I always thought that was an odd thing to get hung up on. You’d think the 3rd strike community cared more about how the game played compared to arcade vs things like BGM and the way Ryu’s bag falls.

Blue Aegis is a big deal also. SFV needs Blue Aegis.

Maybe the devs did know arcade had a soundtrack and thats why they didnt use it. Its the one thing I really detested about SF3.
Like everytime I fight Ed I get SF3 flashbacks.
