Welcome back. This part of the series will be primarily focusing on genres. So far I have [Action, Shoot/beat 'em up, Grand Strategy, and Miscellaneous] as available genres. Let me know if I missed something, and I will try to get it added.
This is eventually all going to get compiled into one megathread for people who want gaming recommendations from Chapos specifically. Other consoles and genres will come in sporadic subsequent threads. Please contribute to previous threads if you missed them. This is meant to be an exhaustive list.

Street Fighter is very important to arcade history, along with KoF but everyone kind of sleeps on Virtua Fighter, which set everything up for 3D fighting games. Let's also mention great beat 'em ups like Final Fight, Golden Axe, the X-Men game by Konami that had 6 player support!
Too hard for the west
Yeah that and VF wasn't as flashy as street fighter or had the fatalities like Mortal Kombat. Best I've seen it explained is that VF is a game about understanding the fighting mechanics rather than big combos.
