1994. a year i wasn't born in, and a important year for street fighter. SF2 turbo came out jumpscaring billions of 90's kids with the scene of akuma shimmying up to end bison's life just for you, the greatest street fighter film released, and the SF2 animated movie was made. but in the middle of this hectic streeting and fighting time lay a oddity in the arcades, a unusual pivot from the usual fighting game...
a fucking whack-a-mole game.
shown above: the fucking whack-a-mole game.
this was also during the era where capcom wasn't too sure if M. bison should have pupils or not, this one being both at the same time since it displays his SF2 artwork on the cabinet itself and the little bisons have blank eyes too.
shown above: a reason why they stuck to ghostly, cloudy white eyes.
while there's not much to this game than being a fun novelty, it is one of my holy grails-because i geniuenely wanna play this one. unfortunately i'm in no place to do it just yet...oh well. maybe in the future...
