Chick Adee

A strange little side quest

Before the next round of Chick Adee, here is a piece of the bigger picture. Boxing entered the modern Olympic Games in 1904 at St. Louis. It also connects to a different milestone: Street Fighter II, released in 1991, turned head-to-head arcade fighting into a worldwide phenomenon and helped define the modern fighting-game genre. The screen is modern; the urge to test skill, pattern and timing definitely is not.
