It ended up being sort of an underdog favorite within our office walls, but I don't think our audience ever got into it. I actually got into this game, believe it or not. I wouldn't personally recommend it or anything, but I have a habit of firing it up if I'm ever in the vicinity of an Ultracade cabinet (usually followed up by a round of Rod Land!). It's not a great game, but it does reward you for taking the time to get good at it. I hadn’t heard of SonSon until I was forced to somehow promote it as a desirable game at GameTap.

At least SonSon's descendant later got a role in Marvel vs Capcom (2?).
