The Fighting Game Generation: Revival of the 90s

The Fighting Game Generation played a huge role in the 1990s. Games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat revolutionized the arcade scene. However, this generation became less popular in the 2000s, due to the popularity of home consoles and First-Person Shooters.

Why I picked the name and added the word Revival is because 2010 marked the revival of the generation. With upcoming games such as Mortal Kombat 9, Marvel vs. Capcom 3, and Street Fighter x Tekken, fighting games revived the 90s in all of us. This generation is alive and well, just not as popular as it was in the 1990s.
