The overall consensus is that sure, you are going to buy Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection solely because of Marvel vs. Capcom 2, and it sure has been remastered to perfection, but I’m glad that this package features every single Marvel-themed Capcom title developed and released prior to their 2000 magnum opus. It’s a phenomenal collection I never thought would ever be released, a magnificent piece of gaming preservation and mindless arcade fun. In short, grab it, have fun with it, and rejoice.

Even with fewer games than the previous collection, we must recognize that MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics contains six titles that have a huge impact on the history of fighting games. The aura they exude from the first play is absurd, to the point of giving goosebumps to the most ardent fan. It's something that other more current names in the genre seem to have lost; that mix of charm and dynamism that ends up leading whoever is in control to always play just one more game after the "last one". If you've never played any of these gems, now is the time. If you were already a fan, feel blessed with the best collection of fighting games currently available.

Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is as stellar as it gets when it comes to classic rereleases. Not only are these some of the best fighting games out there, but they’ve been revived with such excellence that it’s worth applauding. I hope this leads to more Marvel vs. Capcom games, as this collection serves as the perfect reminder that there’s no crossover quite like it.

"The MARVEL vs. CAPCOM Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics feels like a love letter to longtime fans, with nostalgic music, sound effects, and retro graphics reminiscent of the '90s. Thanks to the Switch, these classic games can now be played anywhere, although the screen's sidebars could have been omitted. The gameplay is fast and accessible, perfect for newcomers, while offering enough depth for experienced players to master combos and counters. However, the price tag of fifty euros may feel steep, especially for new players, considering the games appear somewhat dated and similar to each other."

Overall, Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classic brings a pleasant experience of these old titles to fans of the series, which is mostly designed for multiplayer players. If you're looking to pick up this collection just to experience the single-player, you may be somewhat disappointed.
