Released in celebration of the 35th Anniversary of the Street Fighter series, Capcom Fighting Collection takes the original arcade versions of classic Capcom games like Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix and Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo, Hyper Street Fighter II, Cyberbots: Fullmetal Madness, and all five Darkstalkers games and places them all into one compilation. It's also notable for having Red Earth being ported to consoles for the first time, and for also having a very original hip-hop soundtrack for its menus.
Similar to Darkstalkers Resurrection, this collection doesn't have the extra/boss playable characters featured from the home console versions of the games, unlike the Japan-only Vampire: Darkstalkers Collection.
