Capcom released buckets of Saturn titles, one of these being the mid-1998 Japan-only Pocket Fighters.
Utilizing the 4MB cartridge, this arcade port packs a punch — super-deformed “kids” characters from both Street Fighter and Darkstalkers make appearances, as do elements from other Capcom franchises. Collect gems and orbs during gameplay and use them to enhance your own powers or inflict damage on your opponent.
Capcom fan service is all over this title, which perhaps makes up for the much simpler gameplay than many of the firm’s more “serious” fighters. Really nice.
Great review Peter and I recall watching a cool Youtube review of this years ago. Will definitely add to my collection soon!!
