like the mm3,4,5,6 run and the new ff5,6 run I got the idea of playing three street fighter games with one input. Unfortunately doesn't look like it's possible except possibly for games using the same system. Like kof94,95,96,97,98,99,00 might be possible but sf2,sfa isn't because one uses cps-1 and one uses cps-2 and they map the button presses completely differently

How exactly does that make it impossible?

You can't use the same input file.
You're just fucking stupid, everyone hates you, sorry to tell you the truth. no one likes you, you're someone pretentious and TASes only to be on speed game, but don't have any hope, you won't get there.

...But you could always just press two buttons at a time. Annoying, but possible.
GONNA DO THIS SOMETIME LATER

If you come up with a consistent and sensible mapping from one game to the other then I don't see why you couldn't do it. I mean, you could theoretically map a Gamecube controller onto a PS2 controller and all you'd lose is L2, L3, R3, and Select. You wouldn't be using the exact same input file, but you'd be getting as close as you could.
