I wish I wasn't such garbage at third strike.

As was pointed out on Twitter, this is the first time Street Fighter Alpha (the original game) and ANY version of Street Fighter III have been on a Nintendo console. Also, it's the first time we get a version of Alpha 2 that will NOT have load times in between "FIGHT!" and the match starting.

Damn that is one good deal.  Having every version of Alpha and 3 alone makes the $40 price tag a steal to me.

I'm not good at these games, but I might pick it up just to have it. Yay, Third Strike!

I'll be keeping an eye on this.  Street Fighter Alpha 3 was my jam back in middle/high school.  Third Strike was it during college, even if I was pretty bad at it. 


This release makes The Final Challengers seem like even more weak tea than it originally was. 


I hope there isn't much discrepancy in quality between the Switch release and the other console versions.  I also wonder what the online community count will be for a switch version.


Finally, if these are "arcade perfect" versions of these games, does that mean they won't have all the added console modes like world tour in Street Fighter Alpha 3?

Why we need cross-play. Do it Capcom...

I like but am awful at fighting games. I may buy this out of principle. It’s a damn fine collection.
