Street Fighter 6: Years 1-2 Fighters Edition debuted on the Nintendo Switch 2, further solidifying Capcom’s leading presence in the fighting game genre.
Launched with robust gameplay mechanics and a surprisingly deep narrative, the latest entry in the Street Fighter series continues to engage both dedicated fans and newcomers to the franchise.
A standout feature within Street Fighter 6 on the Switch 2 is the 'Game Centre', found tucked away in the main menu’s Gallery section.
This innovative addition grants players access to a curated lineup of Capcom’s celebrated retro games, enhancing the overall value of the package.
Gamers can easily access the Game Centre by pressing start on the Street Fighter 6 main menu, navigating to 'Gallery', and selecting 'Game Centre'.
The lineup can be explored using the 'ZL' and 'ZR' buttons, allowing users to toggle between the available classics.
Notably, the Game Centre boasts such gems as Bionic Commando, Street Fighter 2010, Mighty Final Fight, and, perhaps most impressively, the legendary Mega Man 3.
Widely recognized as a pinnacle of the action-platformer genre, Mega Man 3 has fostered decades of spirited debate among fans over its standing relative to classics like Mega Man 2.
This direct inclusion lets a new generation of players experience one of Capcom’s most enduring franchises without the need for additional purchases or downloads.
While seasoned Mega Man enthusiasts may already own the title through compilations like the Mega Man Legacy Collection, newcomers and those curious about the series now have the opportunity to enjoy Mega Man 3 as part of their Street Fighter 6 experience on the Nintendo Switch 2.
This strategic move by Capcom serves both as fan service and as a gateway for franchise expansion, leveraging the popularity of Street Fighter 6 to introduce more players to Capcom’s rich portfolio.
Capcom has further enriched the Game Centre library by adding Tiger Road, accessible as part of the new 'Sagat Arrives' Fighting Pass.
This ensures the Game Centre remains dynamic, providing ongoing content and value for players who invest time in the newer titles.
These classic inclusions not only reflect Capcom’s storied legacy in arcade and action games but also highlight the Nintendo Switch 2’s capability to deliver diverse gaming experiences.
Street Fighter 6: Years 1-2 Fighters Edition stands as both a showcase of modern fighting game excellence and a celebration of Capcom’s illustrious past, cementing its status as a must-have for Switch 2 owners and fighting game aficionados alike.
