Last weekend I accidentally deleted Ys Oath of Felgania off my PSP memory stick. After I looked at what the price was for a physical copy, I spent the rest of the weekend trying to get it back. The psp would not let me download my backup copy from my PS3, and the psp was too primitive for my modem. It took me having to use my mobile phone as a hot spot, having to reset my psp password most 27 times, and then re-download it from the store at dial-up speeds, and thankfully I got it back.
The only capcom arcade games I can think of that were missing from the first release were the Mega Man games, and the capcom x marvel games, and I don't think we'll be seeing them any time soon.
I've found switch online has given me a great opportunity to try before I buy. And honestly, the online play ability has never been a deal maker for me.
My biggest complaint about the game, aside from getting lost and having no idea where to go next, was the in game economics- I could never afford to keep my characters properly equipped, at least not without hours of tedious grinding.
There were a whole bunch of other games I was excited to name drop that I've gotten for my wii u over the years, only to remind myself that they're still available on either the switch or ps4. Off hand, there's the shantae games, axiom Verge, freedom planet, shovel knight, severed, citizens of earth....
@ThomasBW84 I was worried that it might have gotten de-listed. Glad to know it's still there! There were quite a few games I discovered to be de-listed as I was going through my wishlist.... mostly from the TG16 library
I made sure to buy pushmo world and affordable space adventures today. Now I'm starting to be concerned if my wii u will have enough memory to get everything I need to get before its gone forever
At least people get to keep the games they buy after eshop closes. They same cannot be said for the inevitable day that switch online is taken down and closes....
My top three: hyrule warriors, xenoblade chronicles x, and, surprisingly, final fantasy tactics Advance. I would have figured axiom Verge, wind waker HD or mario maker would have ranked....
Eshop might be closing, but at least you get to keep the games you purchased there. The same cannot be said for when the inevitable day comes in the far future when switch online closes down.
In the past year, I've used my wii u to play: Xenoblade Chronicles x Wind waker HD Twilight Princess HD Final Fantasy tactics Advance Metroid Zero Metroid Fusion Mario & Luigi partners in time Minish cap Majoras mask Donkey Kong 64 Mighty final fight Gargoyles quest ii
I may not play it every day, but the wii u still has an excellent library of exclusive or near-exclusive titles. And honestly, I am considering buying a 3ds to fill the gap on what's not available on the wii u....

Re: Review: Rival Turf! - Jaleco's Brawler Is No Match For Final Fight, Two-Player Or Not
I've played worse.... but not many. The play control is responsive if basic. Music isn't terrible. Hit detection is presentable. It's just so boring.
