The Capcom Fighting Collection 2, launched in May, has sparked excitement among fighting game enthusiasts by celebrating beloved arcade classics for a contemporary audience. Despite a modest debut at 19th on the U.S. sales chart, it marked a significant milestone for Capcom, particularly as it became the second-best selling title on Nintendo Switch that month.

This success underscores Capcom’s ability to capture nostalgia while appealing to modern gamers. In contrast, the recently launched Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves has struggled for visibility, failing to make a significant impact on sales charts across multiple platforms. Despite a brief appearance among Steam’s top sellers and some success in Japan, its overall performance remains unclear.

The enthusiasm for classic Capcom titles indicates a robust demand in the fighting game community, suggesting that Capcom should continue to leverage this passion for future releases. As the competitive gaming landscape evolves, the community’s embrace of these timeless classics is a powerful reminder of their enduring legacy.
