Here is a music video about Final Fight 3. The singer of the song has a chalice filled with alcohol, and he appears quite serious about contemplating the many aspects of Capcom's often overlooked SNES beat 'em up. He really appreciates it. Personally, I've always had mixed feelings about the game, as it paled in comparison to some of Capcom's arcade beat 'em ups at the time like Aliens Vs. Predatorand Dungeons and Dragons. After hearing this song (again), I can't help but feel as though I was a little too hard on Final Fight 3 the first time around. A sea captain that has ass attack is something worth cherishing.
Final Fight 3 is available on the Wii's virtual console. If you play it, or have played it before, please tell me what you think of it. Have you ever encountered Wong, for instance?

I thought Final Fight 3 was pretty damn awesome. Played it again on Virtual Console recently and it still is a pretty awesome game. Actual moves, supers, and branching paths? Final Fight 3 was the first game in that series I liked more than Streets of Rage 2. And it did SoR3 better than SoR3 by not making it impossibly difficult or cutting off the back half the game in the easy mode.

I REALLY hate when the older games did that, btw.
