Get your classic 2D fix with Mikado Arcade’s Fatal Fury Special tournament

Mikado Arcade–Japan’s fighting game Mecca–just ran a tournament for SNK’s classic fighter Fatal Fury Special.

Looking back, it’s hard to believe how innovative Fatal Fury Special was. It originated 2-lane fighting years before Virtua Fighter found it’s own 3D plane. This 1993 release was just barely a year after Street Fighter II: Championship Edition, and may be the very first fighting game with stage interactions. All of this, and it still has the same solid footsies expected from the genre, as evidenced by this gameplay from the denizens of Mikado.
