Streets of Rage 4 - clip 2 - SUHS

Finally, with a machine capable of handling what was envisaged for the game, development on Streets of Rage 4 by Ancient & Sega started in 1999 for the Dreamcast. A small demo (with tunes from Yuzo Koshiro) was made and shown to Sega. However, executives from Sega of America, unaware of the series' history, shot the idea down on the basis of its genre alone. The side-scrolling beat'em up had rapidly gone out of fashion in the mid-1990s, and attempts to bring the genre into 3D (such as Fighting Force) had been unsuccessful. This meant that Sega were unwilling to commit to a game that in their eyes had little chance of making a good financial return (despite the fact that a Streets of Rage sequel would pretty much sell itself).

I wouldn't mind seeing SOR4 made as an actual new 16-BIT game for download on XBLA. Much like MM9 was 8-bit.

I thought so too. There wasn't much to them, but they were great for the time period.
