Why did AvP on SNES have to suck so much?

I really want GOG to secure the rights to AVP2 eventually. It was one of those stories that did Alien/Predator crossovers right.
Fuck this legal limbo bullshit.

AVP the arcade game is a god-tier beat-em-up.

That game throws so much shit at you, it's so fun. Definitely the best game in the franchise.

The arcade game fucking rules.
One of the best Capcom Beat 'em ups

The only thing I liked about that version is the idea that it was the Predator's first encounter with the xenomorphs.

Have we seen that idea anywhere else?

What even is this game anyway? It feels very much like a poor man's reimagining of the arcade game even sharing similar moves and animations but it came out before the arcade version. Was the arcade version actually inspired by this piece of shit, or was it some quick cash grab based on in-development info for AvP arcade or something?

I installed it on my homemade arcade machine after distant memories of a machine in a pizza parlor as a kid.

It was spectacular.

Capcom had the arcade license for the franchise, while Activision had the console license for it. Same thing happened with The Simpsons and X-Men, where Konami had the rights to make the arcade games and other companies had exclusive rights for the console games.

Interesting game, not terrible i.mo
Why the hell did they change a nightclub into some generic cave though?

AvP also had an acceptable Game Boy version.
