Many years ago, we had got our hands on a Street Fighter III: 2nd Impact board. However, when anyone who was into Street Fighter III (SF3 from here on out), they wanted the superior 3rd Strike (3S). The trouble was finding a working board at a reasonable price, which didn’t really come along when we made a search.

Fast forward to 2024, and local Arcade Hero Lemony Vengeance was involved with the 3rd Strike tournament at EVO 2024. The goal was to set a new world record by bringing together the most SF33S boards together in the same room. Lemony not just borrowed our board, but gave it an upgrade to 3S; the record was set and there was an awesome tournament to accompany the feat.

What else ya got besides 3rd Strike?
