Two attempts to revive the series in 3D were made by Capcom USA: Final Fight: Revenge, a 3D fighting game featuring characters from the original game (including a zombie version of Belger) for the Sega Titan hardware (which saw a Japan only home port for the Sega Saturn as Capcom's final game for the system) and Final Fight: Streetwise, a Darker and Edgier attempt to cater to the Grand Theft Auto crowd that is probably better known for its gratuitous use of the 'F word' than any genuine quality it might had. While Capcom produced several beat 'em ups for the arcade after Final Fight, the game itself was only followed by two straight-to-home console sequels for the SNES before fading out completely. The Final Fight universe was later folded over into the Street Fighter canon when characters from Final Fight started to appear in the Street Fighter series beginning with Guy and Sodom's appearance in the first Street Fighter Alpha and up to Cody and Guy's return in Super Street Fighter IV.

As such, the game was originally known as Street Fighter '89, but had its name change before release when the game ended up becoming a side-scrolling beat 'em up and not a competitive Fighting Game. The game's development contains some interesting titbits: the people in charge of Capcom at the time requested a sequel to Street Fighter (this was more than a year before Street Fighter II). The game has life meters not only for the heroes, but also for the villains. Haggar teams up with Jessica's martial artist boyfriend Cody, and his sparring partner Guy, a ninjutsu master seeking to test his skills, so that they can save the city and Jessica. In the original game, the Mad Gear gang kidnaps Jessica, the daughter of Mike Haggar, former pro wrestler and current mayor of Metro City, because Haggar would not turn a blind eye to their dominance of the city's underworld, as the previous mayor had. It was ported to a variety of gaming platforms such as the SNES (in two different versions), the Sega CD, and the Game Boy Advance among others. As one of the earliest games for Capcom's CPS hardware, Final Fight helped popularized the beat em' up genre during the early-to-mid 1990s that was previously established with the likes of Irem's Kung Fu Master and Technos Japan's Renegade and Double Dragon.

Final Fight is a belt-scrolling beat 'em up by Capcom originally released for the arcades during the very end of 1989.
