Evil Ryu, Akuma, Dan, and others… a lot was locked behind codes in the arcade era!

Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection — expected to arrive in a little more than a week, on May 29th — will include “arcade perfect” versions of virtually every Street Fighter main-line title ever made. This includes games like Street Fighter Alpha: Warrior’s Dreams and Street Fighter III: New Generation — titles that hid playable fighters behind codes à la Akuma in Super Street Fighter II Turbo.

In the video below, CCW|MRpeck324 looks at how to access these fighters in the Alpha and SFIII arcade titles. As the Anniversary Collection aims for authenticity, we can expect that these codes will carry straight over to their respective games — though we won’t know for certain until the game hits store shelves.

Characters that can be unlocked:

• Street Fighter Alpha: Warrior’s Dreams – M. Bison, Akuma, Dan
• Street Fighter Alpha 2 – Evil Ryu, Chun-Li (classic costume)
• Street Fighter III: New Generation – Yang
• Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact – Akuma

Know any characters that they missed? Let us know in the comments!

Two Smashers are better than one.

The Beefy Smash Doods have shown us before how nasty things can get if a player finds themselves against two opponents in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. If you’re down to the last stock in doubles, or the unfortunate target of a surprise alliance in a three-player battle, you can expect some deadly damage coming your way if your enemies have their teamwork together!

Kicking off their fifth installment of team combos with Pit and Wario ganging up on an unsuspecting Pac-Man, the Beefy Smash Doods show off numerous impressive sequences with Zelda and the Villager, Dr. Mario and Pac-Man, Duck Hunt and Charizard (arguably a three-on-one), and others — but not double Cloud, which is probably for the best.

For another angle, have a look at what characters are best at protecting their allies in doubles.
