    A collection of some of Capcom's best fighting games, which are still incredibly fun to play today. Only HD remasters or remakes are better than this, but you won't be able to stop playing and wanting to share with friends.

    Overall this compilation is a fantastic package, it’s really hard to find flaws in it. Although I did wish in offline mode there was a way to quickly reset the game instead of having to go back to the game selection to restart. It’s certainly a minor nitpick. With a Capcom Fighting Collection 2 already set for 2025, let’s hope we’ll get other Quality of Life changes and this might be a pipedream, but perhaps Capcom can take a page out of Jackbox’s playbook and put out a single launcher for their various collections. I mean the company sure has a lot of retro compilations (I’m counting 3, Arcade Stadium, Fighting Collection and Beat’em Up Bundle).

    Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics brings us six great fighting games from one of the best crossovers in this genre, including a beat 'em up that not all of us enjoyed back then. This is the way collections should be released: Additional enhancements, Gallery Mode, and tweaks to online options. What else could you ask for?

    Capcom is doing an excellent job with its collections dedicated to classic fighting games, and this Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is another gem that brings together seven titles that have made history in the genre. Marvel vs. Capcom 2 alone is a must-play for all enthusiasts, but all the other games included are also very interesting, especially because they show how the tag team formula introduced in Capcom games has evolved over time. Lastly, the inclusion of an online multiplayer mode with rollback netcode and many other options makes these old fighting games more accessible to a younger audience.

    A lovingly and carefully ported collection of classic fighting games that are still worth playing today, with new life breathed into them through online functionalities. Video game history is successfully preserved here.

    MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is one of the great surprises for all those veterans of the arcades during the 90s and early 2000s. Despite everything, it can be just as enjoyable for those people who, like me, didn't have the chance to live in that era. However, I think some new modes would have been perfect, but the online mode will give it more life in the competitive aspect.
