This thumbnail picture of James and David is so wholesome

[@ColtSteele]

OMG the memories. I wouldn't attempt timestamps for this kind of format even if I wanted to. This is all 10/10 solid gold for '91ers, I hope you can make this happen with other elder statesmen of the FGC.

[@PAPALIKO]

Amazing episode! So much rich history from back in the no internet/slow internet days.

[@yoyochan6668]

As a young man(just turned 18 4 days ago) who is new to the FGC, learning its history is great

[@UserX03]

I really appreciate the talk about how getting good at fighting games applies to other parts of life at around

Awesome episode guys love this type of content the early days of arcades the stories and the history I find it very fascinating

[@Oneframesensei]

[@Anton0915]

THIS GUYS...THIS! was freaking awesome! THANKS ULTRACHEN!

[@zhaf]

You have to do this again for the alpha games and sf3/cvs era.

[@Oneframesensei]

Waited forever for this. Thanks guys! Amazing story's.

[@Elsim]

Great stuff. I only wish we had that type of dedicated arcade scene in my region. I remember playing Alpha 2&3 and KI on consoles in the 90s with a small group of friends but arcades were really only at amusement parks and maybe a handful of pizza joints.

[@jacob-spring]

This was awesome

[@tehRealChazzzy]

This is Charles. I created and ran the World's Finest Street Fighter tournaments, and organized the OG So Cal Street Fighter FGC.

[@therudesociety5373]

I dont think people understand how dangerous it was traveling to other neighborhoods just to play street fighter.....you might end up on gang territory. All too familiar for me living in NY. I'm sure Yipes has plenty of stories being from the Heights .

[@yoyochan6668]

I love highscore girl

[@streetfighterx1571]

Master Chen, Blanka likes your Tigercats =)

Love this history thanks for the content, but damn James let Akira talk, there were many times you talked over Akira and would completely changed the conversation from what he was saying, and always talking about yourself it got pretty annoying. Love you James of course but it really made some parts unwatchable and I couldn’t watch straight through.
