Play Street Fighter Alpha 3 (U)(Independent) Online
Pulling off Chun-Li’s lightning kicks on the GBA feels surprisingly good—three fighting styles, a packed roster, and that same fast-paced Alpha chaos squeezed into your pocket. The tiny buttons take getting used to, but it’s worth it when you land a perfect combo on the bus.
Capcom released Street Fighter Alpha 3 for the Game Boy Advance in 2002, bringing a surprisingly complete version of the arcade fighter to a handheld. It arrived during a time when portable systems were just starting to handle complex, fast-paced action games with any real fidelity. This wasn't a simple demake; it felt like a genuine effort to carry the Alpha experience on the go.
You control one of many fighters, like Ryu or Sakura, and battle through a series of one-on-one matches to complete each character's story. The game includes three distinct fighting styles, or ISMs, which change how your super meter builds and what special moves are available. Matches are fast and demand quick reactions, though pulling off complex combos on the small hardware can be tricky. It feels rewarding to land a well-timed super move and turn the tide of a match.
