YouTube video by The Electric Underground Fighting Games Are NOT Products. (Internalized Marketing)

“Fighting games are not a product, they’re an art form.”

Finally. Thank you!

I find this conversation about “fighting games as products” very tiresome. All the talking points are essentially to defang what is unique about fighting games to appeal to larger audiences when I think they should do the opposite.

They’re a niche genre. Embrace it. Make rad games.

And the robots in that Czech play immediately decided to kill their creators.

It’s so easy not to use substack but people are out here trying to get a piece of that ever shrinking pie.

Fighting games have always felt punk rock to me, but now it’s time to double double down on that.

In the name of all that is holy, put Blade on Ghost Rider’s team. I’m begging you.

I want more original, new, fighting games, but the genre is well suited for IP fighters. Since they won’t make the ones I want I’ll have to do it myself, with art, at least.

Happy first of THREE Friday the 13ths this year, and the first of this art series of mine.

For the love of all that’s holy, this is the perfect opportunity to add Blade, who is custom made for a fighting game.

I’m never going to be able to pick a main in this game.

I feel like this bears repeating:

Marvel Tokon is not a Marvel vs Capcom game.
