There’s no question that Capcom’s Street Fighter II reinvigorated arcades around the world with gameplay, graphics and audio unlike anything released before... or is there a question? Was Street Fighter II really the first game to set man vs. man in a fight to see who lasts longest, or were Karate Champ, Yie Ar Kung Fu and the original Street Fighter just not properly promoted?

Videogames.com explores the full history of the Street Fighter series as never discussed before, including technical information on Street Fighter arcade hardware, storylines, characters, and some SF series trivia that there’s no doubt you have never heard before.
