No actual link to ROM sites (though maybe in the subcategories), but there's a wealth of classic RPGs there for you.![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Also Samurai Showdown FTW! Good old days right there. And it actually got better as the series progressed too. SS V Tenka was the pinnacle of the series.
Also if you can get a copy of Virtua Fighter 5 dirt cheap, do so. If there's one thing I prefer over the Tekken series in terms of fighting mechanics, its the VF series. Sure the game's characters are pretty dull, but the mechanics of this game is the heart of the series. Almost everything you do can result in a split second guessing game that you'll need to think full strategy to gain victory. If anything, it's the fighting game closest to actual real life fighting.![Flex :flex: :flex:](http://www.sevenstring.org/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/flex.gif)
But I do agree with you Phi, the longevity of fighting games can vary. IMO, what really makes a fighting game last long is the competition and the community that keeps it lasting. You can only play and practice combos by yourself for so long.
