So I found the option to turn the speed down to normal. Tried Arcade mode again. Won my first fight and then got my face beaten off in the second. I can’t even remember who by.

Then I, foolishly really, tried a Reverse Dramatic Battle. My Ryu took on Ryu and Ken and I beat them both. Then I had to face Guy and Maki, who beat my face off in double quick time.

Ah well. I’m losing and I’m rubbish and my fun hurts, but this is great. And the PSP screen makes the graphics look beautiful. (I have, of course, turned widescreen mode off so the fighters don’t look like they’ve been hitting the pies.)
