SF2 is a bit before my time but i remember people and magazines talking about it as a global phenomena, it might be the biggest and most played fighting game around the globe.
>Street Fighter II became the best-selling game since the golden age of arcade video games. By 1994, it had been played by an estimated 25 million people in the United States alone. More than 200,000 arcade cabinets and 15 million software units of every version of Street Fighter II have been sold worldwide
And then SFIV revived the genre after the arcades died, it wasn't as big as SF2 but it was huge. New people, new faces, locals, majors and despite what zoomtard tubers say the game was incredibly fun.
Then SFV killed the genre and SF6 failed to bring more people in, causalizing them was not the way. Either make them full movie slop like mortal kombat or make a good and complex fighter , fuck the trannies and Peter Rosas
