The Virtua Fighter series has been Sega AM2's crown achievement. The first game not only had at its time the most advanced graphics (of course, they were quickly outdated soon after), but it was the first 3D fighter.

I love Treasure. And for good reason. They come up with interesting game concepts, have some of the most amazing boss encounters, and their games are very arcadey in structure.

Already 10 years have passed, and it's still the best. If you think this is gonna be more of a praise than a review, then I'll start talking about the different aspects right now. Story: Link is greeted one morning by a fairy named Navi (oh, how so many…
