SF5 has no excuse whatsoever other than 3D game making being piss cheap, but SF4 at least has the excuse that it was a wild card since SF and fighters in general were dead. 2D peaked with 3rd Strike and BoF4, and it was all downhill from there, not only for Capcom but for the industry.

SF4 wasn't bad looking, it at least had a consistent and relatively innovative style.

SF5 however is just horrible, it looks like 4 except with the cartoonish shading replaced with some horrible glow.

The Sega Genesis version of Aladdin had pretty advanced animation techniques for 1993. Donkey Kong Country was specifically made to compete with this game after Nintendo saw what Virgin and Disney were able to do with the Sega Genesis.

It did look pretty bad i remember when it came out. But it was interesting at the same time. I admit I played the game heavily. Sf5 didn't even have the game play going for it. Yes even this year. The game slowed down and I felt I mastered my characters with ease. 4 was faster and had more possibilities due to more combos and speed increase

Technology. To make it look the best.
Play good too.
Imagine if all the devs and companies didnt jump to 3d so fast.
Imagine the capableities of 2d side scrolling or top down view that have never been created.
Adding a 3d background is still 2d if its a side scroller.

Imagine how awesome these types of games could have gotten if people hadn't fallen for the polygon meme.

This one is crazy impressive for having released in the 1980s, but some scalers form the early 90s look even better.

Sega did decent ports of super scaler games on the Saturn didn't they? Afterburner and Space Harrier on the 32x were pretty darn close.

They did, but they are just that, ports, and of the first generation of super scalers from the 80s. Not moving the tech forward (because the Saturn doesn't have the power to do that). However, the Saturn's port of that particular game runs at lower framerate. The only 90s scaler on the Saturn that I know of, Gale Racer, is absolutely awful. Many of the sprites were replaced with primitive polygons, the draw distance is lowered to nearly right in front of the car, and there's lower resolution assets.
Not shitting on the Saturn, it was the first time we got perfect ports of Space Harrier, Outrun, and Afterburner 2. But that was the limit of the Saturn, or any home console's, ability.
