A "super deformed" or "chibi" take on the standard Street Fighter format featuring characters from various Capcom fighting series, such as Street Fighter 3, Street Fighter Alpha/Zero, Darkstalkers and Red Earth.

Overview

Pocket Fighter (Also known as Super Gem Fighter: Mini Mix in North America) is an arcade game released by Capcom for it's CPS-2 arcade system, and was later ported to the Wonderswan, Playstation, Sega Saturn, as well as to the Playstation 2 in Street Fighter Alpha's Anthology Collection. Pocket Fighter is a "super deformed" or "chibi" take on Capcom's fighting series, by offering a new animesque graphical style, where all the characters are dramatically shrunken in size. The game could be considered a parody or homage from Capcom to it's fighting series, due to the fact that it has a large variety of cameos/playable characters from all it's different fighting series, such as; Chun Li, Ryu and Sakura who are from Street Fighter Alpha, Ibuki from Street Fighter 3, Morrigan and Felicia, from the Darkstalkers series and Tessa from Red Earth.

Gameplay

Unlike many other fighters, Pocket Fighter has a relatively simple control scheme. In Pocket Fighter, only a punch, kick and "special" button is used, which in turn makes the game much easier and accessible to beginners. Another feature that is not included in other fighters, is the use of gems to control what special moves your character can do. These gems are dropped when you hit an opponent or a treasure chest. The more gems you collect of one color, the more powerful the special move is that relates to that color. In relation to other series that Capcom produced, each character keeps his/her own special move. Another unique feature of Pocket fighter, is the addition of power-ups - you can collect food to decrease damage on the health bar, as well as collect "orbs" that have some special function, such as a bomb that can be thrown, or turn the player into ice.
