Looking for fourth to sixth generation console games, and old arcade and X68000 games. Saturn is out though.

Currently have and enjoy Smash Remix and Fighting Vipers 2.

Killer Instinct, arcade and SNES Killer Instinct 2 (arcade) which was kind of ported as Killer Instinct Gold (N64)

Those are my top tier without a doubt.

Bloody Roar : Primal Fury was absolutely excellent as well.

You really should get Saturn emulation running, because as far as fighting games went, the sheer variety of games on the Saturn were STUNNING.

Battle Arena Toshinden Remix
Dead or Alive
Fighters Megamix
King of Fighters ('95 and '97)
Last Bronx
Marvel Super Heroes
Night Warriors: Darkstalkers Revenge
Samurai Showdown IV
A bunch of Street Fighter games
Toshinden S
Toshinden Ultimate Revenge Attack
Virtua Fighter
Virtua Fighter Remix

Fighters Megamix is a classic. I love the weird old games with big rosters and a cheerful vibe. I don’t think any other game lets you pit a Daytona car against a giant mascot sculpture.

SF Zero 3 (called Alpha 3 in the West) is my favorite. Zero 2’ (Alpha 2 Gold in the West) is also very good.

SF Collection has a great port of Super Turbo along with the aforementioned Zero 2’.

Marvel Super Heroes vs Street Fighter and X-Men vs. Street Fighter are also well worth a play.

Capcom vs SNK 2 ate more of my fighting game hours than any other game, with the possible exception of SF2/Turbo/Super combined. It had everything I could ever want at the time.

Soul Caliber and it’s predecessor which I’ve forgotten the name of. Especially the predecessor, being my absolute favorite arcade fighter.

Older than that would probably be Capcom vs Marvel.

That’d be Soul Edge(which was renamed Soul Blade for the PlayStation port).
