There's new Capcom Arcade Classics coming our way, which is always good news in my book. I have and treasure some of the Japan-only, multi-disc Sega Saturn Capcom classics set (they also released these for the PlayStation), but these new classics releases are even handier as they'll be Wii Virtual Arcade games. This means I can use a wireless controller and see them in a less blurry fashion.
A small sign on the New York Comic-Con show floor says that these classics are coming in 2011:
- Son Son
- Exed Exes [say that three times fast!]
- Wolf of the Battlefield: COMMANDO
- 1942
- Ghosts 'n Goblins
- Black Dragon
I saw that Son Son was playable on the floor but I couldn't make my way over to it. Capcom's booth is really crowded. I'll try again today.
What other arcade classics could Capcom be forgetting?

Any SF Alpha game. No current gen console has a decent port of an Alpha game :(
You know, like every version of Street Fighter II across Genesis, SNES and TG16 ever.
Hot.
I don't have a PS2. Only last-gen console lying around is Dreamcast and that only has Alpha 3 with no online. Gadz.
