Battle Circuit [Arcade] Longplay (1997)

What a fun game that I just can’t seem remember. it was late in Capcom’s beat em up run.

A four-player simultaneous side-scrolling fighter. Collect coins in each level to purchase new moves. Battle Circuit is the last of the Capcom 2-D “beat-em-up” side-scroller games. This game is unique in that characters could collect coins and buy upgrades for existing moves after each level. The campy presentation and wacky character designs appear to be inspired by classic Silver Age comic books.
