I’m thrilled that we have all this great emulation, not only to keep the nostalgia alive, but so many of the games hold up extremely well. Even into the 90’s, the arcades were always a notch or two better than what we had at home (unless you were lucky enough to have rich parents to buy you a Neo Geo hehe...my buddies and I always drooled over them in the magazines, but none of us were fortunate enough to have one).I cut my teeth on the early 80’s stuff (Dig Dug and Joust are still in my top games of all time), and by the time the late 80’s rolled around, I was completely enthralled by stuff like Double Dragon and TMNT, so when SF2 came along, I was more than ready. The amount of buzz over that game in the arcades was indescribable...and of course Mortal Kombat, etc. It’s pretty incredible that I can still play those games after all these years and they continue to feel great...a true testament to incredible game and art design.</blockquote>
