Capcom’s massive exposure during the early late ’80s and ’90s is the result of the hard work by Capcom’s marketing division, which was run by Sr. Vice President Joe Morici. During his tenure, Street Fighter II exploded onto the scene, Strider took arcades by storm, and a certain blue robot made his debut.

Cadillacs & Dinosaurs
Dinosaurs always make things better, don’t they? What can be better than giant lizards smashing stuff? Well, pair them with fast cars, and you have the makings of the comic book classic Cadillacs and Dinosaurs. Capcom gave it the arcade treatment, and Rocket Science Games brought a FMV perspective to the series on the Sega CD. Wait! Come back! It’s not as bad as it sounds! Aside from being repetitive, the game’s not that bad, and the FMV gameplay is actually not at fault.
Great Circus Mystery Starring Mickey & Minnie
Mickey Mouse and the Genesis have quite a storied history together. Beginning with the grandeur of Castle of Illusion and continuing on to the great World of Illusion and Mickey Mania, the famous mouse has made a home of the 16-bit wonder. Sure, there have been some hiccups along the way (read: Fantasia), but the majority of Mickey’s outings have been highly playable and fun. Capcom’s foray into the Disney rodent arena, The Great Circus Mystery Starring Mickey and Minnie not only has one long title, it’s also a great little two-player romp.
Super Street Fighter II
Super Street Fighter II saw a release on several consoles, and the Genesis verion ranks among the best. Packed with just about everything the arcade original had to offer, there are few fighting experiences better on the console, giving players a wonderful game to enjoy alone or with friends.
Saturday Night Slam Masters
When the working day is done, it’s time to crack some heads! In the ring of course, and there are fewer ways to go about it than with Capcom’s Saturday Night Slam Masters. A big arcade brawler squeezed onto a Genesis cart, it has more than enough action to keep you playing.
