Only KOF and maybe Yatagarasu play somewhat like SF though. To me, Arcsys/Marvel/Skullgirls feels like an entirely different genre, lol. I do love Tekken and MK, but not in place of SF.
I loved Rival Schools back in the day, but not anymore. First because as opposed to before, the Japanese school setting doesn't feel fresh - I actually avoid it in 2017, we've had enough games with that setting for generations to come. Second, because I played it recently and I didn't enjoy the gameplay that much. Jeez, I guess the highschool setting is what makes it prime for a return in 2017.
Eh, I think if Capcom gave a damn it could still be fresh even if the concept isn't new.
The school setting along with its wacky nature and colorful characters was appealing.
