{{sub-stub}}'''''{{PAGENAME}}''''' is an 8-bit version of [[Capcom]]'s revolutionary arcade fighting game ''[[Street Fighter II]]'' to the [[Sega Master System]] by [[Tec Toy]] in 1997. It is not a port of any specific version of ''Street Fighter II'', but rather it is a mix between the Mega Drive versions of ''[[Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition]]'' and ''[[Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers]]'', mixing elements from both. The title itself, ''Street Fighter II′'', features the same blue fonts as the ''Champion Edition'' logo, as well as the prime symbol (′) next to the numeral, which is pronounced ''Dash'' in Japan, but is usually unspoken overseas.

The leader of the Shadaloo organization, M. Bison, sets up a world fighting tournament as part of his global domination plan to select the best fighters to work in his Shadaloo organization through brainwashing.

{{ScreenThumb|Street Fighter II SMS, Character Select.png|width=200|Character select}}
 +
The game is a one-on-one fighting game. Two fighters try to drain each other's health bars with a variety of attacks and special moves, played in a best of three round format. Health bars only update with every other attack. Rounds are timed, and the player with the most health remaining wins if time runs out.
 +
 
 +
Characters move with {{left}} and {{right}} and crouch with {{down}}. They jump with {{up}} and flip back and forth with {{upleft}} and {{upright}}. They punch with {{1}} and kick with {{2}}. The attacks generally correspond to the strong attacks from the original arcade game. Special moves can be performed by combining these attack buttons with directions on the D-Pad. Characters block by holding in the direction away from the opponent, with special moves still doing a small amount of "chip damage" if blocked. There are no throws or grabs.
 +
 
 +
When playing a single-player game, a second player can challenge the other player by pressing any button on the second control pad. There is no dedicated two-player versus mode.
 +
 
 +
The game has three difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, and Hard). There is a single ending for all characters, which is only shown when the game is beaten on the highest difficulty.

Tectoy planned to develop ''{{PAGENAME}}'' way earlier than they did, but [[Sega]] didn't approve the idea alleging it was an impossible task. After insisting for quite a while to no avail, Tectoy developers extracted some "arts" (sprites/backgrounds) from the Mega Drive version using emulators, adapted them and created a "movements' prototype" to show Sega, who still didn't approve it. At that point they decided to continue development even without approval. Development took between 5 to 7 months - 4 to 5 months of actual development, after 1 to 2 months extracting images and adapting them{{ref|http://blogtectoy.com.br/entrevista-com-heriberto-martinez-gerente-de-engenharia-da-tectoy/}}.

Though severely watered down due to the weaker hardware of the SMS, this version of ''Street Fighter II'' is still a reasonably faithful rendition of the game. It also features the announcer's vocals which the Mega Drive's ''Special Champion Edition'' lacked. However, the game is held back by a lack of moves (the Master System only has two buttons on its controller, as opposed to the six used in the arcade game) and character voice samples, and the framerate is low. The music has also been tweaked in places.

Non-Sega versions

Street Fighter II' is an 8-bit version of Capcom's revolutionary arcade fighting game Street Fighter II. It was developed for the Sega Master System by Tec Toy and released in 1997.

It is not a port of any specific version of Street Fighter II, but rather it mixes elements from the Mega Drive versions of Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition and Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers. The title itself, Street Fighter II′, features the same blue fonts as the Champion Edition logo, as well as the prime symbol (′) next to the numeral, which is pronounced Dash in Japan, but is usually unspoken overseas.

Story

The leader of the Shadaloo organization, M. Bison, sets up a world fighting tournament as part of his global domination plan to select the best fighters to work in his Shadaloo organization through brainwashing.

Gameplay

Street Fighter II SMS, Character Select.png

Character select

The game is a one-on-one fighting game. Two fighters try to drain each other's health bars with a variety of attacks and special moves, played in a best of three round format. Health bars only update with every other attack. Rounds are timed, and the player with the most health remaining wins if time runs out.

Characters move with Left and Right and crouch with Down. They jump with Up and flip back and forth with Up-left and Up-right. They punch with 1 and kick with 2. The attacks generally correspond to the strong attacks from the original arcade game. Special moves can be performed by combining these attack buttons with directions on the D-Pad. Characters block by holding in the direction away from the opponent, with special moves still doing a small amount of "chip damage" if blocked. There are no throws or grabs.

When playing a single-player game, a second player can challenge the other player by pressing any button on the second control pad. There is no dedicated two-player versus mode.

The game has three difficulty levels (Easy, Normal, and Hard). There is a single ending for all characters, which is only shown when the game is beaten on the highest difficulty.

Characters

Note: Move lists assume that the character is facing right. When facing left, Left and Right should be reversed.

P Punch
K Kick

The game features most of the fighters from Street Fighter II but omits E. Honda, Zangief, Dhalsim, and Vega.

History

Development

Tec Toy planned to develop Street Fighter II' way earlier than they did, but Sega did not approve the idea, alleging it was an impossible task. After insisting for quite a while to no avail, Tec Toy developers extracted some "arts" (sprites/backgrounds) from the Mega Drive version using emulators, adapted them and created a "movements' prototype" to show Sega, who still did not approve it. At that point they decided to continue development even without approval. Development took between 5 to 7 months: 4 to 5 months of actual development, after 1 to 2 months extracting images and adapting them[1].

Versions

Though severely watered down due to the weaker hardware of the SMS, this version of Street Fighter II is still a reasonably faithful rendition of the game. It also features the announcer's vocals which the Mega Drive's Special Champion Edition lacked. However, the game is held back by a lack of moves (the Master System only has two buttons on its controller, as opposed to the six used in the arcade game) and character voice samples, and the frame rate is low. The music has also been tweaked in places.

The Master System version only retains 8 fighters out of the 12 character roster from Special Champion Edition. E. Honda, Zangief, Dhalsim, and Vega (Claw) are the four fighters who did not made the cut. None of the additional fighters from New Challengers (Cammy, T. Hawk, Fei-Long, and Dee-Jay) are present either, despite the use of character portraits from that version.

The character-specific endings are also not present in this version either: instead the ending screen consists of portraits of Balrog, Sagat, and M. Bison (the same ones used in Special Champion Edition when the player clears the game using a boss character) with a generic message underneath. The staff roll is also lifted straight from Special Champion Edition, but with the addition of people who worked specifically on this version.
