Street Fighter II HD wins our love with Karate Kid homage

Watch out, '80s child. At the 40-second mark in the above Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix video, you might just experience a flashback to that time you wore your dad's bathrobe belt on your head, begged to take karate classes and ended up breaking your best friend's nose while attempting the crane kick. By using Joe Esposito's "You're the Best" theme from The Karate Kid, this trailer grips the nostalgia angle harder than Chun-Li's thighs ever could.

For those who have never seen (!!!!) The Karate Kid, check out a montage of the film's tournament scene, which uses the full version of "You're the Best," after the break.
