Arena fighters CAN be good, but people have forgotten the history

Didn't recognise this at first but looked up a video and I played the shit out of this game.

I forgot about it for like 2 decades before it resurfaced for no apparent reason. I only rented it for a few evenings, but me an my friend played the shit out of it. Remembering it and Power Stone made me think of how we're in a fighting game renaissance, but the arena fighter has been left behind, or even dismissed as fodder for lisenced game purgatory. The only successful remnant still kicking is the platform fighter, which is really just the arena fighter put on its side
