Under Consoletation: The Video Game Television Podcast

Ash & Cliff have a deep dive into one of the most important fighters of the 7th generation. We look back at Street Fighter II, then to how everyone else stepped to the challenge, Capcom's dividing Street Fighter III, the internet game changer and finally Street Fighter IV and if it's punches land.Join the conversation on Discord!Theme song by Other ChrisFollow Under Consoletation on TwitterFollow Under Consoletation on InstagramSend your thoughts to feedback@underconsoletation.com Hosted on Acast.

Ash, Cliff and Luke take a thumb through a copy of GamePro Magazine from April 1992, picking out news, previews, reviews and adverts that tickle their particular fancies.
