I said Street Fighter.This is an arcade version of the Street Fighter series from ’96. The main content of the game is two people fighting.There are many characters and almost every character has a different fighting style and moves. I beat the opponent, but I was still surprised at how good the game AI was in 1996.

The difference between playing on an emulator and playing on raw hardware or arcade cabinets is the feel of the controls.Arcade’s flexible joysticks and lightweight keys are notoriously hard to feel on a keyboard, something that’s hard to do on a keyboard.The thing about browser emulation is that we should be able to easily play the classic games of 1996 by 2020.
