Beating Final Fight Cost Me... 29 Credits (Arcade Longplay / Death Count)

In the arcade era, difficulty wasn't measured in lives. It was measured in how many quarters you had in your pocket.

Today, I went to find out the exact cost of cleaning up the streets of Metro City in one of the greatest coin-eaters of all time: Capcom's Final Fight.

The journey was brutal. The Mad Gear gang showed no mercy. But after a long fight, Haggar's revenge was complete. The final cost? It's in the title.

Here is the full journey, uncut. Every punch, every special move, every painful "CONTINUE?". Just the real experience of trying to survive an arcade classic.

Nos fliperamas, a dificuldade não era medida em vidas. Era medida em quantas fichas você tinha no bolso.

Hoje, fui descobrir o custo exato para limpar as ruas de Metro City em um dos maiores "comedores de ficha" de todos os tempos: Final Fight, da Capcom.

A jornada foi brutal. A gangue Mad Gear não deu trégua. Mas depois de muita luta, a vingança de Haggar foi completa. O resultado? Está no título.

Aqui está a jornada completa, sem cortes. Cada soco, cada especial, cada continue doloroso. Apenas a experiência real de tentar sobreviver a um clássico do arcade.
