GENERATIONS THE FIGHTERS GENERATION WEBMASTER FRANK JOSEPH ON CAPCOM’S FIGHTING PROWESS
How did you first encounter Capcom’s fighting games?
I grew up in Tampa, Florida, and it was a great place to be a gamer, with lots of free-standing arcades. I absolutely played Street Fighter at the arcade – I remember a regular joystick and buttons, not the one that you smashed – and then Street Fighter II changed everything, just reinvented the entire competitive scene. Every Street Fighter game after that, I played religiously.
