Play Street Smart (Japan, USA) Online – SEGA Genesis Game

Game Overview

"Street Smart" for the SEGA Genesis/Mega Drive is a rough-and-tumble 2D fighting game that throws you straight into the gritty back alleys of brawling action. Think of it as a scrappy cousin to Street Fighter II, but with a raw, unpolished charm all its own. You pick from a roster of street fighters—each with their own wild, exaggerated moves—and duke it out in urban locales that feel ripped from a late-night action flick. The controls might feel a bit stiff compared to today’s fighters, but there’s something oddly satisfying about its punchy, no-frills combat and over-the-top animations.

Originally an arcade hit, this port brought the chaos home, and while it didn’t dethrone the heavyweights of the genre, it’s a nostalgic time capsule for fans of old-school beat-’em-ups. If you love retro fighters with personality (and maybe a few janky quirks), Street Smart is a blast from the past worth revisiting—just don’t expect a fair fight!
