    Street Fighter 2 is an especially bad example.

    In like 18nmonths you had:

    Street Fighter II

    Street Fighter II:Champion

    Street Fighter II:Hyper Fighting

    Super Street Fighter II

    Super Street Fighter II: Turbo

    Instead of microtranactions, you just bought the whole fucking game again to get Vega or M Bison as playable characters or to get a projectile for Chun-Li.

      Came here for this, sf2 is worse than the sonic 3 & knuckles example. Sonic and Knuckles is a fine game on its own, combining them gives you extra content, lets you play Sonic 3 as knuckles, and it even does some minor things for Sonic 1 and 2 as a bonus.

      I started the genre with Super Street Fighter 2: the new challengers. Nothing before and after was better than this one.
