This is a really rough port man. Not only did we get the very vanilla arcade ports and not the best editions for each game, meaning that we're missing SO much content that was added onto other versions of the game, but fighting the CPU on arcade mode feels like you're fighting pro players each time. Even if the difficulty is set to the lowest setting, whatever satanic programming went into the AI for the single player is so unfair to play against and becomes so quickly frustrating to deal with that the only fun to be had with these ports is the ability to play with friends.

I'll give props though, this does make the entire series more accessible for people who don't know how to emulate with a PC. The bonus art, character profiles and seeing how the series evolves by trial and error with each game is definitely some dope stuff to keep in mind and track.
