Streets of Rage
Buffy the Vampire Slayer for the original Xbox. Extremely fun and underrated game. Excellent fighting system.

Battletoads

only the arcade version of battletoads is really a beat-em-up. I watched a speedrun of the NES version and the fucking game is like 90% platforming and boat racing and shit.

My dad didn't care for Streets of Rage, but he loved Golden Axe. He always played as the dwarf with an axe.

Golden Axe 1
Final Fight (Sega CD version)
Streets of Rag 3

Fighting Force on PS1 is pretty weak in hindsight but was cool when it came out. I had a lot of fun playing with friends.

IF you can get past the art (or like it) Dragons Crown is really good. Honestly my favorite in the genre.

Buffy was cool because you could chain most attacks and could in theory do an infinite combo. The game even rewards you for doing a combo long enough to reach a certain number, and will permanently increase your power bar. She could also hit in any direction, block, jump, dash, grab, do that flip up thing after being knocked down, and sort of increase the power behind attacks by holding down the last attack button. With sufficient power you can send enemies flying. Sometimes into environmental hazards, instantly dusting them.

I personally haven't played a game quite like it. If anyone has any recommendations

All the Streets Id Rage games for the music, art style and gameplay. SOR3 is my all time favorite.

I liked both the TMNT arcade games as well, and also Hyperstone Heist. I found Konamis beat em ups to be better than Capcoms.

Golden Axe 1 & 2 I enjoy for nostalgic reasons and for the music, but their gameplay isnt great.

Super Double Dragon doesn't get brought up enough in these topics. The way combos and reversals work in that is awesome

They announced SOR4, but I'm on the fence about this one though.

This and fighting games were my go to's in the arcades and during the SNES/Genesis era. There's so many good ones, but I think my all-time favorite is the 6 player X-Men game. There was just something about going there and seeing that big ass cabinet and it was even better if you had a group of friends you went there with.

It's not the same on home ports or emulators when you can just press the button to pop another quarter in. Going to the arcade with $10 and knowing that was your limit on how many lives you could have, good times.
