It's not just Street Fighter that's on the decline, it's Capcom fighting games period. After they crapped out Capcom Fighting Evolution and it bombed because it was nothing more then recycled sprites slapped in yet another game with no plotline as to why whatsoever, they pretty much abandoned their fighting franchises aside from repackaging old games (Darkstalkers for PSP and Alpha Anthology anyone?). I honestly don't know what they were thinking with Fighting Evolution, if you want a game that just has random characters from past games thrown into it who in their right mind would choose that small number of characters instead of Marvel vs Capcom 2 or Capcom vs SNK 2?
Years ago I would have said Street Fighter to this question, but seeing as how the Street Fighter series is pretty much staying where it is rather then releasing anything new. I'd have to say Mortal Kombat. The newer Mortal Kombat games may be no Soul Calibur 3 or Tekken, but they're not supposed to be. And if they were like Soul Calibur 3 or Tekken everyone would bash them for copying off someone else just like they do all the GTA clones.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
