    Yeah I cannot get how to really play those games. Even when I lookup moves, how the hell can i remember them, and how in the world do you do L R updown AB while getting bicycle kicked in the face? Never got it. A shame becuase I love how they look (street fighter 2 etc)

      When Street Fighter and MK came out, I had an EGM copy that listed all the moves. I’d start two player vs by myself and then just spend hours practicing and building up the muscle memory. Then when I had some moves down, play against CPU to get better. I’ve since moved away, but that’s how I did it.

      In later games, most seemed to have a practice mode showing each move list at your own pace. I’ve since moved on from fighting games, but I’ll bet most have a good training mode.

      Oh that’s a good move, I’m gonna press that again. Hmm, it’s a completely different move now.

      Every time.
