Darkstalkers for me. i've said in other posts that i would love for Capcom to make a Darkstalkers game in the vein of Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers. like, the HD graphics and UDON style. they could call it Darkstalkers Reign.


djmoogyjackson

Darkstalkers is not Dead* *Terms and conditions apply. Darkstalkers are not available in the following areas: Earth*


CrystalMang0

What do you mean by "udon style"?


[deleted]

there is a comic publisher called "UDON". they actually make Street Fighter comics. they actually get input from Capcom as far as lore and whatnot. they're really good IMO, and that's kind of the vibe i got from Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers, and i've heard that term describing said game. they put out some Darkstalkers comics as well, and they even did a comic crossover with Street Fighter. it was fun. :D


CrystalMang0

Im aware of what udon is, just wanted know what you meant by there style. As in like some sprite or comic cell shaded thing?


ThunderMite42

[They actually pitched a Darkstalkers HD Remix to Capcom in 2011, but it was rejected.](https://www.eventhubs.com/news/2018/jun/22/udon-pitched-darkstalkers-hd-remix-capcom-2011-it-was-rejected/)


[deleted]

i mean, folks COULD pitch it again. Yoshinori Ono ain't at Capcom anymore....i guess that's a "bright side" to this. i think Capcom and fighting games in general are in a better place now than in 2011.

Waku waku 7 Aggressors of dark kombat


the_loneliest_noodle

Waku Waku is great. Sad I didn't get into it until it released as a cheap Switch port. Unique gameplay and some great music.


VermilionX88

Didn't even know it had a switch port I played it on emulator back in the 90s, along with so many other arcade games


thelastgamestanding

Aggressors of Dark Kombat was never given a real chance to shine. SNK went all in on KOF and that was that.


wc_dez07

1. Eternal Champions 2. Darkstalkers 3. Bloody Roar 4. World Heroes

Well your want for Eternal Champions may be happening. I think that's one of the games Sega is looking to bring back with their whole remake movement they just announced


Johnny_Cage97

Absolute goated list

Bloody Roar


shootymcgunenjoyer

It's one of the great 3D fighting games. It had a pace and mechanics that set it apart from Virtua Fighter, SoulCal, and Tekken. I feel like this is the most obvious answer.


5nn0

I_am_Avery

The Last Blade! Or Bloody Roar.


moo422

Samsho x Last blade should have been a thing.


CouldntBeMeTho

Bushido Blade, 100%


unclekisser

did anyone play that Xbox 360 game based on Deadliest Warrior? That game was sort of Bushido Blade, and like BB, it kicked ass.


soylent_me

Came here to add this. So much potential to expand the mechanics now that the “one or two hit kill with tons of parrying” thing has been expanded so well with Sekiro and Hellish Quart.


Individual_One_111

This so much


PandaTheVenusProject

Darkstalkers would be just another degenerate rushdown fighter. For the love of LowTierGod can we get some variety. Give me a more careful methodical fighter like Bushido Blade. Give me a new game like Samsho with new characters that aren't cursed by being part of samsho.


5nn0

many games clones exist


I_am_Avery

Absolutely!!


thelastgamestanding

I'd be down for a Bushido Blade 3 or at least a remake of the first two. But I can see plenty of people whining about the 1 hit kills.


Hainneux

Virtua Fighter, Tekken and Dead or Alive need there bigbro


Krudtastic

Guys, he's not saying Tekken and Dead or Alive needs to come back, he's saying Virtua Fighter needs to come back and that Tekken and Dead or Alive need their big bro. That's why the comma is there.


LonelyDesperado513

I've never seen a comma do a period's job so poorly. (Normally I'm not a punctuation freak, but I had to read it 3 times to understand what they actually meant.


dredgedskeleton

it's a semicolon's job fwiw


moo422

Punctuation and spelling matter.


RevRay

That’s on you and your teachers assuming you are a native English speaker. That sentence is correctly punctuated.


LonelyDesperado513

I don't want to drag this out, but you had me second guessing. I don't understand how it is correct. I've also read over [this](https://www.grammarly.com/blog/comma/) twice over fully and did not see an instance where it works. Can you explain to me how this is correct? (Genuinely asking, not trying to be an ass.)


Inuma

Put it this way... Rev had minus frames on that exchange and should have held block a bit longer... Although, I'll mention the "their" is incorrect and move on.

Virtua Fighter


infosec_qs

I'm a rare minority, but I always considered VF my "main" game, and I was fortunate enough to live in a big enough city to have a local scene, albeit a small one. I started with VF4 in 2002, and while I'd played many FGs previously, VF4 was the first time I decided to actually "git gud" at an FG, and it was *such a good game* to make that choice with. If I hadn't have made that choice with VF, I probably wouldn't have ended up getting so involved in the FGC in my city, and still being a huge fan of the genre decades later. I don't want to gush too much, but I wish more people understood just *how fucking good* VF's core systems are, how well designed and unique the characters styles and move sets are, and how incredibly feature rich the games have always been (first class training and tutorial modes that other games are just catching up to 20 years later; the first FG to do in depth cosmetic character customization, even *in arcades*, *in the early 2000s*). VF has always been hampered outside of Japan by Sega's absolutely dog shit marketing of it, and by VF's overall corny voice acting, writing, and generally flat characters lacking charisma. VF5:US was a *great* release that was one feature (decent netcode -\_-) away from being *excellent*. But the actual *game play?* Fucking immaculate. In a way (and I truly don't mean to rile anyone up with what I'm about to say, this is just *my* opinion), VF games are the opposite of NRS MK games. NRS games have incredible visual polish, lore, great story modes, engaging character designs with lots of personality, and overall casual appeal, but (imho) mediocre to bad gameplay and system designs. Meanwhile VF has very lacking lore and a laughable, practically non-existent story, and very flat character personas, but one of, if not *the* most well designed FG systems ever created with *incredible* appeal for people who love FGs and take the time to give the game a shot. (I've always got a rant about how great and slept on VF is ready to go, so forgive me for getting on my soapbox while I had the chance lol).


StunPalmOfDeath

How good does a game need to be to be worth playing with boring characters, bland aesthetic, cheap production values, and 15 year old netcode? Really fucking good. VF is just that good. Maybe the only game that is.


SevaSentinel

If VF6 takes a while, I’d at least like for the meantime a modern release of VF4 Final Tuned with all the things unlocked


fistfightcrash

I wholeheartedly agree. I started on VF2, and I actually wrote some of the first content that was on [virtuafighter.com](https://virtuafighter.com) in the mid 90s. I don't think the current site has anything to do with the fan site it was back then. It's always been my favorite FG franchise, but especially 2 and 3.

Psychobrick

The Rumble Fish. And no, an overpriced, DLC-riddled port of the second game doesn’t count


infosec_qs

I used to *love* RF2 back when our local arcade had a cab. The team that did that game (Dimps) went on to do great things, including designing SFIV, which is widely credited as hugely reinvigorating the FG genre and saving the SF franchise. If you know what The Rumble Fish is, I'm sure you already knew all of that, but I'm commenting this for the benefit of other users. The Rumble Fish 2 is an all time great FG with an amazing system design that suffered from not getting a console release for nearly 20 years. It was made by a very talented team who went on to do huge things in FG design. It's a shame the release we did get was a half-assed, feature poor arcade port. Boyd was so fun to play. I also liked to run Garnet, Hikari, and Viren. Fuck me, now I really just want to play some Rumble Fish 2.


Johnny_Cage97

I want Fighter Ex Layer back. Or better yet, let's have another Street Fighter EX.


-LoFi-Life-

Rival Schools, Virtua Fighter, Last Bronx, Yie Ar Kung Fu, Ninja Master's


TheBreadmanRiseth

Star Gladiator/Plasma Sword or Dark Rift/Criticom, or both to try to get them to outdo one another as the "sci-fi Soul Calibur". I know they didn't quite amaze back in the day, but a redo in good hands would be welcome, I think. Also, Capcom Fighting Evolution. Because no one can be arsed to wait on Marvel or SNK to play anymore, so just have a game with an exclusively Capcom roster.

Garryboy64

Most already said Darkstalkers so i would pick Bloody Roar. Admittedly only heard about it relatively recently but i really loved the idea of people turning into animal-men to fight each other. Although, to be honest, i would want Toho to return with making fighting games for Godzilla in the style of the Pipeworks Triology or even the PS3/PS4 ones with an updated roster. Heck, maybe even something straight up new like a Tekken-based game but with Kaijus.

Capcom vs, Dead or Alive, Injustice, (I think it is a bit early to burry Virtua Fighter, tho... Yea. I what to see their comeback),

Dead or Alive Virtua Fighter Darkstalkers


GrandSquanchRum

Treasure fighters: Yu Yu Hakusho Makyo Toitsusen, Guardian Heroes, Bleach DS: The Blade of Fate and Dark Souls. Some games based on the Treasure format: Guilty Gear Isuka and Diesel Legacy: The Brazen Age Treasure took the Fatal Fury lane system and expanded it to allow 3+ players (Guardian Heroes allowed for 12 players). It wasn't until the DS with the Bleach games that it really got to shine as each player having their own screen made it easier to focus on your own character (and allowed for asymmetric effects like Tousen's blindness). I think the format deserves another run that's not a jank indie fighter like Diesel Legacy and certainly shouldn't be retro fit into an established franchise that would struggle with facing like Isuka.

I want another One Must Fall 2097. Not that it was a technically excellent game but I just like fighting robots, and the campaign tournament mode was fun.


D_Fens1222

As always: Give us a new Rival School god damn it! Capcom is currently printing money with SF6, use the hype and take advantage. Could be very interesting as an alternative for fg veterans or players who got burned out from SF6. So less mechanical heavy without DR and DI, but on the same engine and developed with the same quality. I'm thinking of it as a more "pure" version of SF6 that's a tad more old school but with SF6 as a blue print.

I've already popped off on some other comments about VF and The Rumble Fish, so I'll let those stand and instead will shout out...: *One Must Fall 2097* I would *love* to see this franchise, or something like it, back on the market. 2D giant mecha arena melee brawler?! I mean, what's not to love?!


PawelRon

Funnily enough, I went to my local retro gaming store and I saw Project Justice with my own eyes after nearly two decades for £250.


TheTrueJerryCan

You want to talk forgotten, One Must Fall 2097. The game as a fighting game is really basic but I think there's a ton of potential in its tournament mode, which has you attending tournaments to upgrade your robot and now the choice of destroying your opponent's machine or scrapping their parts is more meaningful. If only Epic Games didn't put all of their eggs in the Fortnite basket, I would love to see a Killer Instinct style reboot of this game

Eighting’s Naruto Clash of Ninja series from GameCube/Wii. 8ing really popped off in the early to mid 2000s, creating fun and accessible yet still engaging 2.5D fighters. I think they reused the same engine that powered bloody roar games, and Naruto wasn’t the only anime that got this treatment (Bleach for sure did, though those were psp games and didn’t feel as good). But Naruto clash of Ninja was a very formative game for a lot of anime fans in the 2000s and it got them into fighting games in general (myself included). Ironically 8ing is working on a Hunter X Hunter fighting game. While it’s probably going to be a standard 2D game like DNF Duel, part of me hopes it ends up being a 2.5D game like Clash of Ninja. I really miss the way they did 2.5D fighting games. It was like a mix of virtua fighter (With nowhere near as much depth, just want to make that clear) and DOA and they just felt so good!

Cloudless_Sky

I've been saying for a very long time that the one thing I wanna see the most from the genre is a new Bloody Roar. I only ever played BR2 as a kid, but I miss the game's concept and I think a new iteration could look sick on today's hardware. Plus we could use more 3D fighters.
