That's the daftest thing I've ever heard. FF1 has more D&D roots than Dragon Quest does, even. And I'm only saying THAT because I'm entertaining your inaccurate personal definition of CRPG. Every vidya RPG is a 'CRPG', you dope on a rope. The term only exists to differenciate from tabletop games.

Nope. Special moves through direction/presses or charge moves, combos, normal cancels into specials, hell different outfits for the same characters with different button presses, the ability to jump over your opponent to reverse position, shit like that.

SFII codified the main rules for 2D fighters for decades, up to the fucking present. Only the VF/Tekken 3D ecosystem actually managed to change things (into an entirely different genre).

There's a difference between "inventing" a genre and codifying it. Street Fighter II is clearly not the first fighting game. The "II" kind of gives that away. But it established the standards of the genre so that the games before SFII are noticeably shittier than the ones after.
