Max: "CvS2 is the last one."
Capcom Fighting Evolution/Jam: "I exist!"
Max: "Last REAL one..."
Lol!
i felt this in my soul
SVC Chaos: "Am I real enough?" :-)
Max: "STFU!!!" >:-(
SVC Chaos: [Cries in a corner] X'-(
@@KenMasters. SVC Chaos was made by (SNK) Playmore, though, so it doesn't really count in regards to Capcom's legacy of 2D fighters.
Ah yes, the MUGEN game with a price tag.
Wha Happun is a quality, bingeable series, would recommend
I tend to play them in the background some times, same with Civvie, they are that bingable and rewatchable.
True
Wha Happun is great. Its cool to see why some game struggle or fail.
Strongly agree. It's an outstanding series.
@@mestre12 And it's not just bad games either. All it needs is a wonky dev cycle for Matt to cover it even if the game was a financial and critical success
16:48 I never understood the notion of SF3 being “full of freaks”. Oro’s design looks not much different than Dhalsim, and is Necro any more inhuman and monstrous than Blanka? Every other character featured on screen fits in a fighting game (ninja, boxer, wrestler, Kung-Fu fighter, and three shotos…typical Street Fighter roster). Gill’s look is solely meant to show off how CPS-3 could handle an asymmetrical design, unlike Sagat and Vega in SF2 (but pay no attention to Oro’s tied arm switching sides).
It’s just moreso how comparatively to sf2 and maybe alpha, the designs were much wilder and more experimental, whether people liked it or not.
I remember that being a common complaint myself, and I always used to call people out on it. How were Alex, Ibuki and Dudley freaks? Only an idiot would think that.
It's proportion issue. When the game has 10 characters, 2 is 20%.
@@coldh8terade737 Only an idiot does think that.
@@HellecticMojo right, but Street Fighter 2 had 8 selectables at the very beginning, meaning 25% of the characters looked weird.
Street Fighter III almost felt like a Darkstalkers game at one point.
Darkstalkers looked so gorgeous on CPS-2, I can only imagine how mind-blowing Darkstalkers would have been if released on CPS-3.
@@SAPProd CPS3 jojo is basically a spiritual sequel to darkstalkers, stands are akin to the Dark Force, and both also have the 9 lv super gauge..
Iirc
@@tedjomuljono3052 that’s true, and Bengus’s Darkstalkers designs definitely looked right at home next to Araki’s designs.
2nd Impact
That is because it kinda does look like Darkstalkers. Really, I thought Alpha had DS’s graphics.
The main 3 reasons I love SF3
- Daddy Gill
- The Urban Theme
- The Music
P.s My Boy Alex
The problem is the fans are afraid of new. Thats why we get less & less new fighters. I like that 4 brought back the additional 4 new characters like SSF2. No matter how much you hate SF5, you cant deny s2 DLC was a great role out for the new characters. Though most werent necesarily "new" they did open the door for growth. & aside from necalli, all new characters made an impact game & story wise.
I would say that Garou mark of wolves was an exception for some reason as most of the character were well liked such as Rock, Tizoc, Hotaru, Gato and B.Jenet. unlike in SF3 that they character only were well loved due to EVO and mostly as fighters than characters.
Both Capcom and the SF community's biggest fear is change. For the community, it's fear of another massive failure, one that could cause one of their biggest franchises to go dark. For Capcom, it's wanting to recapture that magic and success of SF2. A lot of people are split on this: a lot of people want the series to move on. "We want more new characters, we want a game set after SFIII, etc etc". The rest want more of the same: "we want to stay where we are, we want to see old faces again, etc etc."
I totally understand the scenario, and everyone has a point. But look at just SFV: look at all the brand new characters (Rashid, Falke, Menat, etc-especially Luke, the next Alex). They're all cool, even the less popular ones like Abigail or Ed. Alongside them we have our old favorites: not just the big 3 (Ryu, Ken, and Chun-Li) but also Alex, Balrog, Ibuki, Juri, etc. It's possible to have both new and old, and make everyone happy. It's difficult, but possible.
@@nebiyuesayas5600 All Fighting Game communities and companies are afraid of change. For example, KoF 15 has only 2 new characters in its base roster of 39.
To have the right balance, SF6 should have a base roster of 30 characters: 23 veterans and 7 newcomers, and 11 out of the 23 veterans should be ones that didn't make to SF5, like Makoto, Fei Long, etc.
Also, the story of SF6 should take place at least 2 years after 3rd Strike with a brand new main antagonist that has nothing to do with Shadowloo, S.I.N., the Illuminati nor the Evil Hadou (G would make a great main villain).
@@anubisean Half of the new cast of SF3 are extremely popular as characters since the early-2000s, especially Sean, Oro, Dudley, Urien, the Lee brothers and the females. That's why they appear in a lot of spinoff media outside of the games themselves. And none of the new characters had anything to do with Evo Moment 37.
@@lukejones7164 Of course it's not about that moment but the game as a whole what i mean is that due to EVO itself that made 3rdS popular and not moment 37. To add anything Tekken 3 is also another example of the next generation curse dodged due to Tekken being niche back then but was affected by Tekken 7.
I remember a long time ago seeing a video on the Two Best Friends channel that mentioned Maximilian Dood, I checked it out and subscribed ever since. I loved Friday Night Fisticuffs and I love watching Max play fighting games. No lie, I probably would not play fighting games outside of Mortal Kombat if it wasn’t for the two of you. Both of y’all really changed the way I play video games! I know it may be weird to say thank you for something like that but seriously, y’all opened up my gaming pallet so much just by talking about and playing games you love. So thank you Max and Matt!!!!!
the reason why max and the zaibatsu were a success when it came content about fighting games is that their focus is on "fighting games can be fun!" while the rest of the FGC were "how to be good or what is top tier".
max and the zaibatsu brought a new generation towards fighting games thanks to their comedic and nostalgic content.
Agreed lol I was a mk/smash bros only guy now I dabble in blazblue guilty gear ki kof lol never woulda without this channel 😅
Dood same
Yes
lemme guess...you discovered the fgc with those guys 😊
SFIII is honestly why indie devs are super creative tbh. We need more wild devs for stuff
A great episode for sure. Another game content producer, Top Hat Gaming Man, was roasted by viewers for saying similar of the game’s financial problems and negative fan reactions, requiring him to produce another video to essentially prove his findings correct. The FGC scene, while providing the game a well-deserved second chance at popularity, sometimes has rose-colored glasses of a game’s true history and reception.
Yeah I remember his second video addressing the “controversy.” Silly that he had to do that but I’m not surprised. People’s nostalgia can get really out of hand.
I saw one of those SFIII machines without Ken and Ryu in Valparaíso, Chile in the mid-90s. I thought it was a bootleg game trying to cash in on SFII’s popularity. After seeing the final release with Ken and Ryu, for years I thought I was crazy. Only a few years ago I found out on TH-cam that there was an early version without the characters that was tested in some places.
Would LOVE to hear more about that. Did you or your friends get to play that version at all?
I didn't play the game then and I don't know anyone who did in those days. I’m afraid I don’t have much else to say, really. I remember SFIII not being succesful at the time it came out in the arcades, and nobody I knew talked about the game back then.
Bro... te acuerdas en que Arcade o en que local para ese tiempo estaba la maquina? Hoy en dia ya es bastante dificil encontrar locales de Arcade por la quinta region.
@@chanapkis45 Era uno en avenida Pedro Montt. No recuerdo el nombre, creo que era "Sama", "Samoa" o algo parecido. No sé si existirá todavía. En todo caso, recuerdo que después de un tiempo ya no tenían esa versión del juego.
Street Fighter 3 has to have had the worst arcade cabinet ever. I still remember seeing Street Fighter 3 for the first time, didn’t know it had come out, was at an airport with my parents waiting on some people, and from far away I see this cabinet that doesn’t say Street Fighter, and isn’t showing any previous Street Fighter characters. I’m looking at this thing, walking through the airport, and I’m like: Is that a new Street Fighter? But it took a while to tell it was a new Street Fighter became someone got the bright idea to just put 3 on the cabinet...it was in the SF2 font, but then anyone can use that font too.
Also, like no place I went to normally had a Street Fighter 3 cabinet. I think the only two place I ever saw it (when it was new) was that airport (and I didn’t get to play it) and the Casa Bonita we almost never went to.
"Three...? Wait. Only 3 CHARACTERS!? This can't really be Street Fighter, can it?"
- Young me, probably
I had the same reaction, but it was in an arcade. I thought it was some kinda weird hack, like a rainbow edition, or something. It just didn't look real, so I figured I wouldn't waste my time. Plus, at least at first glance, it didn't show Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Blanka, or any of the characters I remember.
First time was in the Village in NYC. It was a cabinet directly facing the street and completely vacant. I think everyone said "Three? What?" Years later, present day, right down the block is Barcade with alot of cabinets and drinks 😆
@@germain83
Damn. I have no idea what NYC was like in the 90s being born in '96 myself.
Did we ever have a big arcade scene?
(I was born in Brooklyn, raised in Queens. Even now, the only places I know of in terms of "Arcades" are: Barcade, Chinatown Funfair--which is really small and Next Level Battle Circuit.)
@@proquo-s
I was never in Brooklyn...but I’ve got to imagine everywhere in America had a good sized arcade scene. Arcade cabinets in general were totally ubiquitous. There were arcades everywhere. Malls usually had at least one arcade. But you also could go to the movies and the theatre would have a little arcade, and then just in the halls of the bigger ones there’d be different arcade cabinets. Pizza places usually had a few machines set up. The first time I ever saw War Gods was some little gas station. I got into KoF because that was one of the machines they had at the college my mom worked at. I lived in a pretty small town, but during middle school and some of high school we had a little arcade in the break area.
Was wondering why Max wasn’t in the Wha Happun for this, but still cool to see him react to it. Love watching Max play games, but his commentary and reactions are just as good. Would love to see you and Matt Collab again
He was already in the episode of Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite. So far I haven't seen any featured youtubers double-dipped in this series.
@@mysticmind4563 Max has triple dipped actually. FF7, MvCI, and Killer Instinct
@@Bjhorn279 ah, then it could just be he had something else to do.
The 90s era was so interesting and will always be near and dear to my heart especially around the time Tekken 3 was out.
I honestly don’t remember ever seeing a Street Fighter 3 arcade machine and at the time my family was living right in the heart of Dallas. I didn’t see a new Street Fighter machine until Third Strike and by then I moved to console so it was all Marvel Vs Capcom and Xmen for me.
Man that was ... something else. By contrast I feel like SF 4 learnt a LOT from SF3's launch and was downright fucking amazing at launch, and even revived the arcade scene for a while. Would love to hear a deep dive for SF4 in this vein.
By the time SF4 was out tho people were dying for another SF, they almost didn't believe it was real
how i hated that the 3rd strike backgrounds and missing 16:9 mode from 2nd impact version never made it in.
Wow crunch in the 90's was even worse than it is now, imagine being overworked and also working at multiple projects at the same time and releasing them in a span of 6 to 8 months, that's fucking insane.
To be perfectly honest, I've only started learning about how 2D fighters actually work within the last couple of years, however, I remember finding a "Three" machine on the boardwalk in New Jersey way back in 1997 and being completely and utterly engrossed for that entire week of vacation. I didn't bother with any of the new characters; stuck with Ryu and Ken. The "Shin Shoryuken" Super Art absolutely captured my imagination. I just loved everything about it. Looking at Alpha 3 a couple years later, when the arcade machine showed up at my college, I felt like it was a step backwards. I can appreciate that game now, but back then, I was already sick to death of those CPS2 sprites.
SFV's visuals kinda bled into MVCI, having similar modeling without the shading that made the previous entry look so crisp. The art direction improved with characters like Menat and G, who felt more at home in the backgrounds and the lighting.
That’s intro will never get old
I know right never skip it
It's so good
I must be living in a simulation for this collab to exist. It's been a while
Max has been on two Wha Happun episodes already: Marvel vs Capcom Infinite and Final Fantasy VII Remake Edit: almost forgot he was on the Killer Instinct episode too
Max and Matt have collaborated for years, either Matt visiting Max with the Super Best Friends or Max in Wha Happen
@@therock238360 dont forget the killer instinct what happened
Chilled Bambino oh shit almost forgot
This is great to see. I think the reason Max Dood popped up on my algorithm is from watching Wha Happuns? by Matt
tbh, I think Daigo parried the whole world's insecurities and doubt on SF3. I wasn't that hyped for SF3 until I saw that moment and went all in.
Odd thing about this: John Choi did the exact same thing to a Necro player in a New Generation tournament. He parried all but one hit of the Magnetic Storm and survived, yet nobody talked that game up like it was the greatest thing ever. To see such a double standard with 3rd Strike's Daigo moment really put me off.
@@coldh8terade737 is there a video of this? I've never seen it.
@@scnix This happened the year the game was out, so video recordings weren't possible back then. I know about it because the official strategy guide from Gamefan had an article that gave details on how the match progressed.
@@coldh8terade737 that's probably why no one knows about John Choi but Daigo's parry is known worldwide. It's not really a double standard.
@@scnix It is within the FGC, because streaming wasn't a thing in 2003 either. You'd never know about Daigo vs JWong unless you tuned in regularly at forums like SRK. And that's where the double standard comes in. The John Choi match was at a pre-Evo tournament in NorCal called Battle by the Bay. This is where all the top players would compete at the time. John Choi does it, everyone still hates New Generation. Then Daigo does it, and all of a sudden, 3rd Strike is a godsend. That angered the hell out of me, because I actually liked playing New Generation.
I wouldn't mind seeing Max react to more things like this (occasionally) and offer his input.
I love he'd pause to elaborate, then unpause and Matt would say exactly what Max did.
"Ok, Matt I'll just shut up now."
Something I find funny is kof13 went through something similar. It's one of the most visually stunning games of all time. And it played amazing. But no one in the us played it. I never actually knew it existed until the rereleased it for smart phones. Years later ppl gush over it( deservingly) but snk lost money and went bankrupt. But things are looking up now for snk and kof. Xv could be their most well received game in a long time
I'm hopeful for kof. Actually have been since 14, I didn't even think that could happen
Yea I brought KOF 13 day one, it came with a full soundtrack CD, everything from KOF ‘94 up until KOF 13. That game was amazing man, literally a work of art. What’s sad is all of the excruciatingly hard work SNK put into it just for it to sell terribly. They spent something like 6 months a piece making each and every character.
@@orlanzo2621 that's heartbreaking. All that effort for the end result to be a commercial flop. But at least it's getting it's flowers now. I'm glad 13 wasn't the last kof tho. They've been bouncing back starting with samsho and now kof xv so the future is bright for snk
@@EAZIIMAN Yea it literally almost bankrupted them, thankfully it didn't. I'm glad they are still going strong, they've always been one of my favorite fighting game companies. Samsho was great (even tho it had terrible netcode), and KOF 15 looks amazing. I hope people actually support it, i know i will. Day one buy.
What happun is one of the pinnacle prime time TH-cam shows - would highly recommend
"Hello,Matthew~"
"Stop calling me that!"
Back in the day in our local game arcades, the most popular games are in the arcade machines with big screens, like 50 to 70 inches screens. SFIII New Generation was in a regular cabinet in the corner of the place. It's like I found a hidden gem. It was only until around 2004 when 3rd Strike arrived in those massive screens beside games such as MvC2.
@17:20 slow and strategic works well for weapon games like Last Blade and Samurai Shodown
I remember my first thought when I saw it at the arcade was "Wow, flowy pants. These graphics are amazing."
So weird to me that third strike didn't include all the previous iterations stages and music
Space/memory issue
Was hoping to find Matthew in the comments.
When SFIIII came out I _wanted_ to play it a lot, but none of the local arcades had one. The only time I ever got to touch the game was on a vacation to the beach, and I really liked it. I was far from a "hardcore" player though.
This kind of reminds me of the reception for Tekken 4… Hardly ANYONE played it in Chinatown Fair. I bought it for my birthday, and I finished it so easily.
I'm now curious about the EX series. Was it liked when it was released? 3D fighters didn't really nail it until Tekken 3.
Virtua Fighter 2 was a pretty solid game, and that came out in 1994.
Watch Top Hat Gaming Man he makes similar videos like "Wha happened"
That’s not true. VF2 and VF3 were both very highly regarded, especially VF2.
Wha happun is great. He goes over development of such with little bias and is still funny af. First time I've ever seen someone talk about sonic 06 without shitty overused jokes
The quote at 26:00 is gold. Respect to the team for plugging away at it for so many years.
Max actually introduced me to Matt McMuscles with a link to one of his Crymetina Critiques episodes years ago. Now, I've watched so much of that man's content, and recommended Wha Happun in particular to several friends. Thanks, dood!
I love it when we get these crossover episodes with uncle mcmuscles ^^
Power stone is still one of my favorites as a kid.
Same! I wish capcom would bring it back
3rd strike is what brought me here all those years ago in 2011.
Any reason to rewatch a Capcom Wha' Happend?! Is always awesome! Great to see you supporting ya boy Maxi-dude!
"CVS2 was the last one."
Capcom Fighting Evolution: :D
"The last REAL one."
Capcom Fighting Evolution: D:
Very true Street fighter five had a long long long journey to get to where it is now
Re-arranged Limp Bizkit ref...
I got significant other the day before it came out at a FYE.
Dude took 20 bucks and hooked me up.
I’ve been watching a bunch of What Happun vids recently. Kinda surprised to see Max randomly reacting to this lol
Yep, Sean was going to be the only shoto in THREE.
Street Fighter III wasn't like at first because the basic Street Fighter characters such as Cammy, Guile, Dhalsim, Blanka, Zangief etc was not in the game only Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li & Akuma returned.
Even worse than that. Only Ryu and Ken at first. The latter two only added later after the initial backlash
No different from the first game in the series. Only Ryu and Sagat were the returning characters in 2 (3 if you want to count Ken) everyone else was new
@@Drebin1989 That's not the same cause Street Fighter was turned into a legit fighting game and the characters of II appeared in subsequent instalments up until III.
@@destinyseeker9477 Yeah it is the same because Fatal Fury started out the same way
As far as the characters appearing in subsequent installments...hello...thats EVERY Street Fighter series. 2, 3 , Alpha, EX, 4, or 5
@@Drebin1989 Fatal Fury started out as a legit fighting game Street Fighter didn't until II.
The characters from II was in all instalments even appearing in crossovers until III was released only 4 original characters returned who is Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li & Akuma.
I didn’t get to play SF3 until a lot later in life. I was on SF2 and SF Alpha 2 on the SNES. I never seen SF3 in the arcades where I lived. I have to say that I have played it now etc. but it’s my favourite art style to watch. It looks amazing. I’m not as fussed on the SF 4 and 5 art style. I assume SF6 will be similar look with the inky style. Call me a traditionalist - but I love the old 2D hand drawn style.
5:17 early development for Clock Tower 3 for the ps2.
First time playing SF3 was on the Dreamcast in December 99 and I was impressed with the animation but the gameplay not so much. It didn't help how bad the Dreamcast controller was for playing fighting games compared to the Sega Saturn controller. I didn't really get into SF3 till 3rd was released for the PS2 in 2004 and PS2 controller was much better.
I never owned one but my cousins did, We had the Sega Saturn and playstation but. I thought I was the only one that felt the Dreamcast controller for fighting games was terrible.
Raise your hand if you're one of those stats on Matt's video. (raises hand) Love Wha Happun.
Edit: I remember seeing a New Generation cab back then. I had the same WTF reaction to it. It just wasn't appealing to me. Mahvel was much nicer, even with my suckitude at playing.
Ryu and Ken were supposedly added to SF3 after people complained about it to Capcom at SF3 arcade location tests.
Also you can see Sean stage in Alex stage at the right of his stage down the ally where you see that man with the white coat and briefcase walking passed......makes sense seeing how Alex and Sean are in New York.
Im a grown man. I’m watching a grown man watching a video with a grown talking about video games.
Last time I did something close to this was GTA4…. Watching Niko watching TV in his apartment.
I still remember the Killer Instinct video they did together and it is crazy that they weren't going to add Ryu and Ken originally
I saw one of those SFIII machines without Ken and Ryu in Valparaíso, Chile in the mid-90s. I thought it was a bootleg game trying to cash in on SFII’s popularity. After seeing the final release with Ken and Ryu, for years I thought I was crazy. Only a few years ago I found out on TH-cam that there was an early version without the characters that was tested in some places
20:34 Urien looks concerned that Akuma is coughing out green blood.
I would love to see Max's reaction to "What Happun" Final Fantasy 7 Remake.
This was a really good episode of Fighterpedia
It's funny because looking at Street Fighter 6 after looking at Street Fighter four Street Fighter 5 these games didn't have it far as the new Next Generation and fighting games but Street Fighter 6 feels so much more like Street Fighter 3 third strike
They originally weren't going to put Ken and Ryu in Three. I remember that because it was also in an interview about the game in EGM (I think). However, so many people didn't like that change that they ended up backpedaling on that. It's one of the reasons why Alex is positioned as the main character for the Three saga, and not the Shoto duo.
I know we say that Third Strike has had a renaissance, and I don't disagree that that happened. But, I wonder... even now, what are the sales like compared to other entries in the SF series? I'd argue that Third Strike EVEN NOW has an appeal to the competitive online community, but lacks appeal to casuals, and therefore probably has an order of magnitude less sales, even with the bump from its refurbished image. I think that refurbished image took place in a little bit of an echo chamber.
A Streetfigher game without its main Shotos would be like a Tekken without the Mishimas. A tech Demo.
Arcades were the first games as a service type model. So of course updates came fast to stay competitive
The SF3 titles will forever be one of (if not) the greatest fighting games of all time. Such a shame that they released at a time no one cared for it.
Castlevania Synphony of the night and street fighter 3 third strike went through the same deal.
At 21:45 watch Max's face when the Whuh Happen guy mentions Chun Li's body -ody -ody. Yes, we all approve. Haha
You are right max. No one played street fighter 3 new generation at the arcades....I was there my friend 300 years ago :)
All this beautiful SFIII footage shown in 16:9, making the characters wider than intended, when it was meant to be played in a 4:3 aspect ratio, doesn't do the game justice.
please do more of these! Love Wha Happun
The American arcade dying by 1997 has to be that Capcom guy misremembering things and getting dates confused, because arcades were still all over the place in '97. I think every Pizza Hut you could go into still had a arcade section in '97. I know movie theatres were still loaded with arcade games (I remember playing SpikeOut in my mall’s little movie theatre around when Phantom Menace was coming out) in like 2000 and 2001. It wasn’t until like 2003 or 2004 that arcades started dying; they went fast once it started, but that was also half a decade after the first Street Fighter 3. Hell, you could still find normal gas stations with arcade games in '97.
I spent most of this video trying to recall how many new characters were added to 3rd Strike.
Chun-li, Makoto, Remy, Q...
"I feel like there should be a fifth, but I can't think of one🤷♂️"
Then 21:40 happens
"🤦♂️FuckTwelve"
I then realized what I just yelled and burst out laughing🤣
Crazy how things go down in history like this. SF3 now is like the Gold Standard of SF games, the music, the roster, the gameplay, the animations, mechanics everything is almost perfect in that game. It just came out at the wrong place at the wrong time. I’m surprised Capcom as a whole company didn’t go under because of this massive fucking disaster.
because Capcom had other popular franchises at the time like Resident Evil, Mega Man, the Versus series and etc.
The roster isnt that good
@@juarezamorim true, but this is SF were talking about. This is their biggest franchise. Im sure they were clinching their assholes at the time from this haha but I’m happy things turned out the way they did. SF6 soon now 👌🏽🔥
@@SwagMaster824 it was until Monster Hunter, now MH is the king of making money for Capcom.
I would like it if Matt mcmuscles and Maximilian dood do another what happen episode between the two, however I did enjoy the latest episode that matt put out What happened? Street Fighter 3: New Generation.
the biggest reason I hated SF3 at launch was the parry system seemed too complicated at the time.
only twitchy little nerd kids seemed to know what was going on so I never felt like investing any time on practice.
I also did not have anyone to actually play against, arcades were dying even the ones near the local state university, there were never any regular players at night or weekends.
The New Generation has some of the best backgrounds I've ever seen in a fighting game. Just beautiful.
It’s so mind blowing that capcom over saturated the market and was confused why 3 didn’t hit.
I love the work that goes into each of his videos, I love that there's finally a channel that teaches you the real backstory and history of the development of a video game like others do with film and music, I just wish _anyone else_ made them.
capcoms dnd art is iconic on its own
SFIII was HOT where is was at. I was running thru ppl in tha Local Laundromat near tha HOOD!!! They stole my bike then a 12 year old Kid pointed a Gun to my face when I was looking for my bike. That happened during my win streak lmao haha ;D
I played a "Three" at the Santa Maria mall way back when there was an arcade there. Also yes the Tekken 3 or Tekken Tag machines were always more crowded.
Gon confirmed for Street Fighter 6. One can dream. Sigh.
Something funny about how a guy named McMuscles now represents himself as a skeleton
Even though the game had problems it also brought us Third strike aka best Sf game for me
The Capcom CEO was there from the beginning, and is going NOWHERE!!! Lol
I love this crossover content, if only there was like, a podcast or something with Max, Matt, and, Iunno, Justin Wong or someone…
...and, ya know, two of them almost got kidnapped in one episode or something
Kinda wish Matt included footage of SFV and SF4 and talked about some of the SF3 characters later appearances in the Street Fighter series. Yang is in the GBA version of SF Alhpa 3, Ibuki popped up along with Dudley and Makoto in SF4 and Alex made his glorious return as a playable character in SFV! But, that Wha Happun video on SF3 was pretty good nonetheless!
Those 90s capcom games are the best. Love the street fighter art too.
When SF 3 New Gen was in arcades that's when I went to arcades the most. I played that thing so much I bought a combo guide for the game. I will never shit on that game. Ever
I love Mac mcmuscles, he does such a great job with his what happun videos
The next SF should go like how GG evolved on a graphic standpoint. Gameplay-wise, just give back parry to everyone and I'll be happy
i kinda wanna see a new Street Fighter Alpha game with Arc Sys graphics. if done well i feel like it would be a big hit
that would be amazing
I love Matts channel, he is full of facts and no bias responses!
It’s crazy to me how everyone says new generation bombed and no one played it. I remember there being a line at nickel cafe to play it and having to wait like 15 minutes to play it. As I recall it was played as much as tekken 3. Might just be the arcade where I lived in utah.
Street fighter III New Generation is one of my favorite arcade game played this arcade so many times at the arcades so much memeories
I clicked on this thinking it was an episode of “Wha Happun” FT Max……..mixed emotions set in but ok now, a bit excited to be fair
Maybe my experience was weird, but I saw SF3 The New Generation cabinets in at least 8-10 arcades around me, they were everywhere. Basically never saw any Virtua Fighter except for 1, Tekken except for 1, saw maybe one Second Impact and never saw Third Strike anywhere. Maybe by that point they were already hurting for money and "the sequel to SF2" was a safer bet than anything else, and couldn't afford the updates.
SF6: bring back the stylized graphics, ArcSystem Works Style with classic fighters’ grown up versions plus truly interesting new ones.
I see NicoB is doing a great job at selecting content!
wait does nico edit for Max?
@@heehoo3685 no, he's like a content manager of sorts
Artstyle of Alpha/3RDS mixed with the gorgeous cellshaded 3d of MVC3 or Strive. That would make SF6 so awesome to just look at.
I remember how surprised i was when i saw street fighter 3 back when i was a kid. Especially when i saw sean, a character in a yellow gi that was black like me. I was super intrigued And wondered why i never heard of him.
