10 Retro Marvel Video Games You Forgot Existed

10. X-Men Vs Street Fighter

Marvel Vs Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds, a crossover of searing colour explosions, juggle combos, and cool ass characters fighting one another that you never thought you'd ever see. Nemesis Vs Ryu, check. Cyclops Vs Dante, check. Deadpool Vs Viewtiful Joe... what the blazes?

Now have you ever looked past the combo rainbow and wondered, where did this all start? It wasn't quite the simpler, but no less difficult, Marvel Vs Capcom 2. We have to go back further than that, all the way back to 1996. Before MvC was even a thing, we had X-Men Vs Street Fighter.

What started as an arcade game was soon ported to the short lived SEGA Saturn and a certain PlayStation 1 thereafter. It even featured the likes of Dhalsim and Charlie Nash on the Street Fighter side, and Sabretooth and Juggernaut appeared on the X-Men side. These are characters we sadly haven't seen in the most recent entries in the franchise.

From the lush character sprites, to the tag team gameplay, this was the game that started a fighting crossover revolution.
