I remember the original Street Fighter very well because I played this game a lot in the arcades. But the last time I played this particular Street Fighter game was back in July 1995 in a small Newfoundland town called St. Alban’s. I never played this game ever again because I couldn’t find another video arcade especially in Sudbury, ON that hosted this game. I’m certain that this game is gone forever which is sad.

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

[@fruitsalad5802]

old Japanese arcade game devs had a weird thing where they'd go by pseudonyms in the credits of games they worked on. I'm not 100% sure but I've heard they did it because the companies that employed them were afraid if they actually gave the full names, other companies would hire or "steal" them away. in this one it seems a lot of them went with a fighting/boxing theme for the names, hence Punch Kubozo and shit like that. fun fact: we still have basically no idea who made all the beautiful sprites for the Metal Slug games because of this!

The dragonpunch/shoryuken is heavily powerful (especially when it makes a bullseye hit). A classic one on one arcade game.

[@Royameadow]

Street Fighter (I987) would serve as a forefront for many elements that still remain in place today: ~ The concept of having different languages for different characters that was made popular in Street Fighter IV first debuted here; Ryu says English versions of all of his specials in the International release, while the Japanese version has the native cues for Hadouken, Shoryuken, and what I jokingly call "Tekbakisprilliyukyen" ("Tehk~Bahki~Sprillee~Youk~Yen"; in reference to Peter Griffin's take on Tatsumaki in his fight against Washee~Washee); other games did this on consoles at the time, but I cannot remember a notable enough title from the '80s that did this in the Arcade space and thus I commend Street Fighter for being one of the early leaders on this front. ~ OHKO (One Hit Knockout) scenarios are incredibly rare in the Street Fighter series unless a player intentionally increases the Damage Handicap, something that would become mainstream thanks to future integrations by Sega (Virtua Fighter and Sonic the Fighters), Namco/Bandai (Narutimate Hero series), and Mugen (030% Health Cap), among others; while an OHKO Shoryuken is very much unlikely in today's entries, the concept that you could do ludicrous amounts of damage in one hit is why Handicap systems exist today, it can either be used to challenge the player or even be used for Blitz Matches and Speedrunning to make play a bit more concise. ~ Street Fighter '87 suffers from the same issues that Guitar Hero 0I and II endured when they were released, and it is a matter of the Method of Input Execution, rather than solely Input Precision: To do any Special in this title, not only do you have to be fast, you have to make sure that a Diagonal is not pressed in the sequence, otherwise you'll just have Ryu and Ken throwing punches and kicks the whole time; this made the title and its PC Engine CD port (Fighting Street) very friendly for Keyboard users to pick up in the era of Emulation, it was less likely that you would do a Diagonal on a Keyboard when compared to a controller's Directional Pad and the issues with this is part of why I feel Street Fighter II allowed for a more relaxed way to execute Specials while also loosening the Time Window for it too; this would be addressed with the first game in the form of the Mugen port Street Fighter One, it helped finally bring it into the Modern Era with many elements of Super Turbo that it can live a healthy life among current players in a better spotlight. ~ Minigames to serve as Interludes and also a way to relax the hands from the major action proved essential and existed at least up to Third Strike; if this didn't exist, I suspect that Repetitive Motion Injury would've become more of a problem for players back then, it was smart for Capcom's devs to let the player take a bit of a breather so their hands wouldn't get damaged or outright fail on them and it pretty much became and industry standard for the genre in some form or another. There's obviously more elements that I could mention but these are the ones that I feel made the biggest differences on the series and genre outright; while I feel more needs to be done with the first entry (a Definitive Version with SF++'s features and also an attempt to finally bring the remainder of its roster into a new entry, for example; if not for VI, then it must be done in VII or later), it will forever be important to the franchise because it served as a learning point for Capcom in how to make a Two Dimensional Fighting title feel more responsive and also become successful, this title truly does have a charm that every future entry from II to VI ultimately lack and wishfully more will give it some good attention in the years to come.
