Nice collection.

Some these are absolutely amazing from a technical perspective.

http://www.conceptart.org/davi/2d/spiral-stancer.gif

What game is this from? It's hardcore.

[davi]

that's shiva from i believe street fighter vs xmen by capcom

[J Wilson]

Wow, these are amazing. I recognize a lot of these from playing the games, but it's another thing to have them on your computer where you can more easily see just how brilliant they are. These have it all. Great character designs, great poses, and fantastic animation.

I've never really been especially drawn to wanting to do animation myself, but these do give me an itch to want to give it a try.

[Anid Maro]

Ah yeah, good times there. Later when I get home I'll see if I can dig anything out of my hard drive, but in the meantime here are some 2D fighters worth looking up for their art.

SNK:

Last Blade
Garou: Mark of the Wolves
Art of Fighting

Capcom:

Street Fighter III
Capcom versus SNK (nice remakes of the SNK sprites)
Darkstalkers

Sammy:

Guilty Gear
____________

Oh, and I can't resist this one...

This one is mesmerisingly gorgeous! :D

[chriskot]

The Metal Slug series has some of my all-time favourite sprites. MS3 in particular seems to have the best sprites in the series.

The bosses (especially the first one) are some of the most elaborate sprites I know of. You can see them here (http://www.bogleech.com/arcade-ms3.html). If someone can find an animated sprite of the hermit crab boss, I really suggest that you upload it.
