I feel like it was one of those second tier series, very popular, but not super popular like Street Fighter was. It was maybe as popular as Mortal Kombat. Why did it not become more popular? Also, how popular do you think it is now?

Which fighting game series have you played?

I legitimately never heard of it until like 10 years ago, and I was pretty sure at that time that it was just some kind of fan made anime game. Imagine my surprise when, years later and pretty recently, I learned that it was actually an old school fighting franchise.

My first introduction to Darkstalkers characters was in Super Puzzle Fighters II Turbo on the original Playstation.

They were again present in Marvel Vs. Capcom 2.

Aside from that, I had no idea it was a separate fighting game franchise until 2003 or so when Pyron and Dmitri started showing up in the Outskirts Battledome.
