Street Fighter Alpha 2 has such a chill summer vibe. Also it's a good thing that it has become niche and not milked by Capcom or the fgc
>>12722515Still my favorite
>>12722515>mogged by RBS
>>12722547When you see it up close, that Rose sprite is a right mess
>>12722517Not you again
>>12722547Now we know the real reason Cody ended up in the can. He got caught trying to rebuild Mad Gear so he could kidnap Jessica again.
>>12722589mostly the character design is a mess...
Fuck you and your chill vibes zoomshit
>>12722807Zoomers say aura instead of vibes. I say this is a certified boomer thread!
>>12723036isnt vibing also a zoomer term
ALPHA 3 for DC my beloved
>>12723060Isn't the Saturn port considered better?
>>12723058lmao unc
Why do you look down on people trying to optimize the way they use their characters in order to win matches against other human players?
>>12723924If you're talking about practicing against the computer, modern AI might be different but in games of this era particularly it's really bad and at the end of the day teaches a different style of play than you would against humans. So many people who practice like that just end up frustrated because techniques that got them easy wins vs the computer get countered and then they're hit with aet ups and strategies they've never seen. Other than getting your inputs down, playing vs the computer is no good for training and pretty boring on it's own.
>>12723924>Optimizing winning optimzing winning optimizing winningSoulless freaks don't know how to simply enjoy videogames, it seems.
>>12723992I NEED TO KNOW HOW MUCH TIME THIS ATTACK TAKES TO BECOME DAMAGING, HOW LONG IT REMAINS AS SUCH, AND HOW LONG IT TAKES TO RETURN CONTROL TO ME AFTER USING IT ALONG WITH THE WINDOW OF TIME I HAVE TO FOLLOW UP WITH IT ON HIT SO I KNOW WHAT COMBO ROUTES ARE POSSIBLE AND, IF BLOCKED, THE DIFFERENCE IN TIME BETWEEN WHEN I REGAIN CONTROL OF MY CHARACTER VS. WHEN MY OPPONENT DOES IN ORDER TO PLAN ANY POTENTIAL FOLLOW-UP TO KEEP THE ADVANTAGE OR IF I HAVE LOST ANY OPPORTUNITY TO PUSH FURTHER OFFENSE DUE TO THE RECOVERY.WHAT IS YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM?
>>12722517The mid 90s was heaven for fighting game fans
>>12722517Not even close. KoF98 is the only worthy contender. Alpha 2 is better than any Fatal Fury game.
>>12724668>KoF normie not getting FFMany such cases!
>>12723680Must be because it’s like 30 bucks on every other system but for Saturn it’s like 300 bucks
>>12724728No, Saturn is virtually arcade perfect while DC Alpha 3 was based on the PS1 port and, as such, has missing frames, also different hitbox data, overall it's a weird port
>>12724748PS1 port framedata is closer to the arcade version than Saturn's
>>12724762Source?
>>12724693>FF weirdo is jealous of KoFNot many such cases cuz you're weird
>>12724748Why would Sega base their DC port on Sonys port of the game from the previous gen instead of their own port of the previous gen. Seems pretty dumb
>>12724769Shoryuken forums
>>12724770>jealous of KoFI like it, but it's a simplified crossover party game compared to Chadtal Fury
>>12724775Link?
>>12722517I love many 90s fighting games but SFA2 is definitely among the top ones
>>12722515>Chill summer vibe>Have to practice sakuras bread and butter combo for 300 hours before you can pull it off consistently Yeah. Super chill.
>>12724779The forums are dead, jim
>>12723992>>12724291these are the sub80iq morons that get mad when you punish their retarded fake shit and then mash even harder as if that somehow makes it any better
>>12723680No? How could it be better? Dreamcast version is the native Naomi version with q sound. I've had both I can easily say it's better for Dreamcast. The only reason the Saturn version is expensive is because North American Saturn games that aren't sports trash are subject to the scammer inflated prices retro bullshit.
>>12724773Sega saturn renders graphics different
>>12724748Is their a list on what version of each of these games are best? How many of the Dreamcast ports are worse than Saturn?
>>12724939
>>12724928>>12724942This is what /vr/ has become? Shameless disinformation for disinformation's sake?
>>12725083>if information was published on a site and said site died then said information becomes disinformation!look at this leftist right here
>>12722515Street fighter is impossible to play unless fighting games are your sole genre, it’s just too difficult and there are too many buttons that do wildly different things to the point of requiring a PhD for optimal use It’s a shame because the aesthetics are fantastic
>>12725313Shoryuken forums are still online also all sources are saying Satrun is the more arcade faithful port and not Dreamcast. Do I trust the many sources that say that, or do I trust the /v/ console war shitposter that invaded /vr/ to spread lies?
>>12725947dreamcast version is more faithful to naomi sfa3. You also misspelled "Saturn"
>>12725961It suffers from some altered hitboxes, and it natively outputs at 480i rather than the 240p resolution used by the arcade and Saturn versions, which causes the sprites to look smaller and causes visual issues on some displays.
>>12724668I'm an A2 player but that's just wrong.
>>12722515my favorite stage in alpha 2 is the men's toilet room
>>12726289Based
>>12726289>>12726306>Has best music in the game>Laggy as hell so A2 players will threaten to kill you if you dare to pick Birdie without changing stages
The best music in Alpha 3 is Karin.
>>12726642I wasn't aware stage would lag in the alpha series
>>12726685Laggy stages aren't uncommon in old SFs, ST is filled with those.
>>12726725I thought it was a new SF thing, also thought SF2's lag jank was part of the charm (which I couldn't get into)
>>12725947NTA but Saturn port has lots of balance fixes and nerfs and is basically a proto SFA3 Upper.Ps1 port was just arcade balance but with cut animation and loadings.
