Final Fight 3 [Slowdown Patch] (SNES - US) Longplay (Auto 2P Play)

About the Game:
Final Fight 3, released in Japan as Final Fight Tough (Japanese: ファイナルファイト タフ, Hepburn: Fainaru Faito Tafu), is a 1995 beat 'em up video game developed and published by Capcom for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It is the second sequel to Final Fight released for the Super NES, following Final Fight 2. Like its predecessor, it was produced by Capcom's consumer division with no preceding arcade version released.

The game features the return of the protagonist Guy along with Haggar and also introduces new characters Lucia and Dean. The game's plot takes them through their efforts to rid Metro City of the new Skull Cross gang. Final Fight 3 introduced new moves, as well as branching paths during gameplay and multiple endings. Also available is the option to fight alongside a CPU-controlled partner. However, most critics felt these changes did too little in the way of expanding and improving upon the original Final Fight, and the game was released to little fanfare.

The next Final Fight game, Final Fight Revenge, eschewed the beat 'em up gameplay in favor of a 3D one-on-one fighting format.

Final Fight 3 received a 21.2/30 score in a readers' poll conducted by Super Famicom Magazine.[22] The game also received average reviews from critics.[23][24]

GamePro's The Axe Grinder approved the addition of Lucia, but felt that Dean's movement was slow and the bosses were little more than large, standard enemies. He praised the graphics and branching stages, but felt the repetitive gameplay outweighed these.[25] Next Generation similarly felt that the new features were not enough to make the game a significant step up from the original Final Fight, stating that "It's not dull, but it's not all that exciting either".[13] Electronic Gaming Monthly's four editors felt too that despite the improved graphics and new features, the game felt like simply "more of the same" with overly repetitive gameplay.[8]

In 2018, Complex included the game on their best Super Nintendo games of all time list, writing that "The third and final game in the Final Fight trilogy is the best out of the litter".[26] In 2023, Time Extension included the game on their best beat 'em ups of all time list, calling it the best in the Final Fight series.[27]
