The Street Fighter video game franchise that dominated arcade markets and home consoles of the 1990s endures today with a new fan base and a fresh generation of young players. When it was first released on Capcomโs arcade machines, online gaming was almost unheard of, so young people in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan instead found companionship in arcade halls. Few people today know that a mysterious group of Street Fighter fans from that environment would play a surprising role in the development of the series, by helping to make the franchise into a worldwide pop culture phenomenon.
