It is hard to imagine that it was 25 years ago that Street Fighter was created. At that time nearly everyone on our staff wasn’t even born yet. To commemorate Street Fighter’s 25th anniversary Capcom is planning to release a large collector’s set that includes practically everything a Street Fighter fan would ever want.
The package will contain a number of games, music, movies and material goods as well. The package is set to hit stores on September 18 and will cost an understandable price of $150 when it is released for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. Considering the fact that this release also contains Street Fighter X Tekken, that means this could also be seen as a very extravagant special edition as well. The full list of everything included in the package can be seen below but it is quite obvious that the light up Ryu statue and Ryu’s belt so any fan of Ryu is going to want this package.
