What is the greatest 2.5D belt-scrolling fighting game of all time?

No such thing.

It's a thing. Basically is a side-scroller that has some z-depth to it, so you can move up and down a bit.

What is it about the term belt-scroller that triggers the autism of anti-weebs and jokers so much? I prefer the term beat-'em-ups myself (since I don't give a shit about belt-scrolling shooters like Aliens and NARC), but I don't mind the term itself.

When will you burgers learn? It's called a crabwalking punch'n'move with power-up elements.

D&D shadow over mystara

>> No.3803493

>>3803030
For me its usually Turtles in Time or Streets of Rage 2


Both have responsive and good controls, stylized graphics, and great music.

While games like Chronicles of Mystara are great and have much better combat systems, I just didn't play them as much.

The same could be said for Fantastic Four. If it wasn't for the awful controls that use every button for what should be a simple beat em up the game would be just bad and ugly, not awful.

Never heard of the term till a year ago on this board. Super Mario Bros is a belt scroller. Every 16bit game.

2.5D is supposed to be a 2d game with 3d rendered graphics. So Nights into Dreams is a belt scroller now.

Super Mario Bros has a orthogonal side view.
Belt scrollers don't.

Violent Storm by Konami is just a complete fucking riot to play. I don't have a single bad thing to say about it. Here's the first stage song if you need a little push.
