It's funny how I often say my favorite Street Fighter II is Super Turbo. But I almost never play the arcade version. Why? I love the mechanics, but the difficulty level borders on MK2 levels of cheating.

The Japanese version, however, plays more like the other SF2 versions, while maintaining the mechanics of Super Turbo. And the Japanese difficulty is what most of the home versions are based off of. So instead of the arcade version, I'll play the Playstation, or 3DO or PC versions (the PC is the most nostalgic, but the 3DO music is the best).

This post brought to you by Jenn attempting to play Super Turbo on MAME and getting her ass handed to her by Ken. Again. And again again.

(I swear I was good at the arcade version back in the day, I swear it....)

Last boost: We're all friends here, right? Yeah? Cause I've managed a few drops myself.

I literally danced with joy when I did it.

Thinking of Henry B a lot these last few days.

"In principle González believed in working within the system to effect change, but in practice he pulled no punches."
"...Never had a conflict of interest. . . . His only special interest was his constituents. He never let them down."

One of the few politicians I've ever respected unconditionally. Ever heard of the Castro Brothers? Spiritual and literal successors to Henry B.

I dunno what's going on with the local grocery store sushi (don't judge, it scratches the itch), but they're now PILING on the rice. Like triple the amount of rice as usual.
They haven't raised the price, or shrunk the fish....they just...put it on a wall of rice.
