Technically, 2012 marked the 25th anniversary of Street Fighter, the classic Capcom fighting game franchise that’s made a comeback over the past few years. This weekend, however, Capcom has made “I Am Street Fighter,” a 72-minute documentary film, available to stream free on YouTube. Originally only available as part of the $149.99 Street Fighter 25th Anniversary Collection, the film traces Street Fighter all the way back to its roots, through the glory days of the arcade, and finally to today’s tournament scene, where pro players can make a name for themselves internationally.
