I’m certain most everybody has a narrative about this recreation, and right here’s mine: my household couldn’t afford a babysitter, even if my dad and mom labored from dawn to properly past the sundown. My older brother was usually positioned answerable for me rising up, however when he wasn’t out there (as a result of he had his personal life) I’d accompany my of us to the laundry they operated. All through the 90s and early-to-mid aughts, their enterprise ceaselessly featured one or two arcade cupboards. Marvel vs. Capcom 2 was the one which I occupied most, and it turned every little thing to me. To my data, it was the primary recreation I ever tried to grasp. I need to’ve hopped on the sticks twenty instances a day every time I discovered myself at that laundry, and in flip MvC2 has by no means fairly left me. In all places I am going, I hear that tune nonetheless, and each preventing recreation I play, I merely yearn for the great ol’ days. – Moises Taveras Learn Extra
