- Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition on the Genesis. Very first fighter I played, got me into them as a whole. Wish I could've played it the arcade version..
- Later went on to Super Street Fighter 2 on the SNES. Sadly the place I lived in had like, no arcades. But one time I went on vacation and...
- X-Men vs. Street Fighter on an arcade machine in a restaurant.
- Marvel Vs. Capcom at another arcade I visited on a trip.
- Flash forward to arcade accurate emulation and overall knowledge, pretty much all the KOF games
- Street Fighter 4 I guess?

Not a diverse history because I can't remember squat when it comes to this sort of thing, at least, not liberally.

Just out of curiosity, were you using the 3 o 6 button pad to play CE on Genesis?

I remember the real fights were for who will be using the 6 button pad at a friend's house :D

Well these are all the games I've played, in the approximate order of the date I played them, with the earliest being first.

Yeah, I've never played any of the classic fighting games like Street Fighter or CvS or something.

God, I feel like everyone who is 20+ here started really early. My fighting game history is pretty lame; my high school had a MvC1 cabinet and I started playing it in Sophomore year because I was really bored. I was okay at it, and over the summer I looked up guides and shit online when I was not doing outsidey things and came back and absolutely destroyed everyone at the game (including some neckbeard junior who was actually pretty decent but smelled really bad and oh god i dont wanna stand next to him...).

I then looked up other games that had "supers" and found King OF Fighters 2000 and played that on an emulator and slowly became a hermit until I graduated. And about 7 years ago I found a game called STREET FIGHTER 3 THIRD STRIKE and played the shit out of that and it was way different than anything I ever played before then. Then, I got really obsessed with the game and looked up videos of it and then I got a PS3 and SF4 because I was really hype about that game and I played the shit out of that, and I was really obsessed with Bison because his Ultra 1 looked dope, but I ultimately played El Fuerte because being part Mexican is suffering.

Since then, I've given most fighting games people tell me about a chance, such as Melty Blood, Arcana Heart and Mortal Kombat. I don't own a PS3 anymore, because of some unfortunate happenings or I'd play fighting games a lot more. I don't have much motivation to even play fighting games on a PC because I don't really feel compelled too, I'm not entirely sure what the hype about PC fighting games is, to be honest,(other than better netcode) because I could never sit in my chair and play for hours like I could on my couch with my PS3.

Jeeze. All this talk of cabinets reminds me of an old Peter Piper Pizza that recently just closed down here where I live. All of the cabinets were nicely arranged. All the racing games in one spot, the shooters in another, ect.. The fighting game section, although.. Is what I remember the most. All of the cabinets neatly lined up next to each other, being hogged by the winners, having spectators watching, and challengers approaching... The games I can remember clearly were Rival Schools, MvC2, Ehrgeiz, MK4, Tekken (Can't remember if it were 2 or 3) and some others I can't remember at the moment. Another arcade nearby had MvC1 and Soul Calibur.

They all slowly disappeared.. The only older cabinets I see around in my area are Time Crisis & 3rd Strike at a classic video game store. While this is a "fighting game" thread.. I have to mention the older House of the Dead cabinets (2 being my favorite) and NFL Blitz 2000.

Good times.

Seems like 3rd Strike makes people go nuts about the game everywhere. I sufered the same decease :P

AND, I remember your ELF, we played a few times against my Dictator. You were annoying as hell :/ (it's ELF after all)

well my first fighting game experince was MVC 1 at some resturant whose name I dont recall, and then SF 2 dont remember which, back then I was crazy about MVC too the point when my pops used too ask me where do you want to eat I would pick the resturant whose I dont recall even though I hated the food there.
My first team was Capcom and Wolvie and then later SF3 Third Strike cabinet came out I easily forgot about MVC and played the game so much the owner of the resturant whose name I dont recall once told me to have mercy on the game lol. Since then and now I'm obbessed (spelling?) about anything SF3 to the art, music everything.
Thus Buddha Sakyamuni was born a prince, but voluntarily took to the mendicant's staff; and Francis of Assisi, the founder of the mendicant orders who, as a youngster at a ball, where the daughters of all the notabilities were sitting together, was asked:
"Now Francis, will you not soon make your choice from these beauties?"
 and who replied: "I have made a far more beautiful choice!"
 "Whom?"
 "La povertà (poverty)":
 whereupon he abandoned every thing shortly afterwards and wandered through the land as a mendicant.
