None of these games would exist if it wasn't for the popularity of street fighter 2 so that's the choice. Mortal Kombat 2 gets honorable mention.

In the 3d space it was either Virtua fighter or tekken. Tekken 3 is the pinnacle, the universe paid attention. honorable mention to Virtua fighter 2 which was the king at the time.

I hope street fighter 6 goes for the above SNK art style instead of the overly cartoony look they’ve done with SF4 and SF5

That art style is so goofy and hit and miss. It really depends on characters design. Most of the characters look fine but look at Guile, Blanka and Balrog's weird looking asses :laff: I hate realistic renditions of SF characters because it doesn't fit their profile because they were conceptualised in manga proportions.

Akiman and Shoei Okano's SF2 fighter portraits are the GOAT SF artwork and I wish they'd use that for SF6 (I realise this may be an unpopular opinion but whatever).

I was/am a big fan of this art style too but it's a bit too 90's and outdated

I love his artwork he did most of the promo art for Final Fight and a few other Capcom games as well. I also wouldn’t remind a return of SF2, I’m mostly talking about the on screen assets though.

The year 3030
nowhere near the best but i gotta soft spot for MK vs DC...especially since they actually tried to frame a story on why the hell DC would fight MK. The no fatalities/blood killed it though.
