I played a good amount of fighting games very casually in arcades growing up like Street Fighter II, Primal Rage, and… Mega Man 2: The Power Fighters (hey, it was fun, and I was a Mega Man fan!). The late 90s and early 2000s marked a sharp decline for the industry, closing tons of arcades and leaving a lot of us to be patient while companies like Capcom ported their highly demanded arcade games to the generation’s consoles. We weren’t all as lucky as some growing up near a well-stocked, regularly updated arcade. Today, I hope you’ve been in the lab practicing your execution because we’re going to shoryu-get into the delightfully 90s original soundtrack for Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike: Fight for the Future, originally developed by Capcom in 1999 and composed by Hideki Okugawa! What’s up, nerds? We’re back for another iteration of Sound Test, our feature where we delve into exceptional video game music and how it enhances the experience of the game it soundtracks.
