Gameplay
Super Street Fighter II and Super Street Fighter II Turbo
The first disc contains ports of Super Street Fighter II and Super Street Fighter II Turbo.
Super Street Fighter II was the first game on Capcom's CPS-2 arcade board, with more sophisticated graphics and audio over the original CPS-1 board used in previous versions of Street Fighter II. All twelve World Warriors from the previous entries return, many with basic and special techniques refined to adjust the overall balance, and four new characters are introduced. Some of the returning characters received new special techniques such as the Shakunetsu Hadouken for Ryu, a flaming Shouryuuken for Ken, the Flying Powerbomb for Zangief, and the Devil Reverse for M. Bison. The game also features a new scoring system that tracks combos, first attacks, reversals, and recoveries made by the player and awards bonus points accordingly. However, the faster game speed introduced in Hyper Fighting was reduced to the same speed level as Champion Edition.
Super Street Fighter II Turbo was a revision of Super Street Fighter II that notably reintroduced faster game speeds, as well as introducing Super Combos, air combos, and throw recovery. The cast of playable characters returns with new moves and animations, and old moves received many balance changes. It is also the first appearance of Akuma, a hidden character who would become a staple of the series.
Characters move with and and crouch with . They jump with and flip back and forth with and . Punches are done with (jab), (medium), and (fierce) and kicks are done with (short), (medium), and (roundhouse). Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button.
Throws and grabs are done by holding or when next to an opponent and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button. Different characters have different throws available to them, and some characters can throw in midair. Throws cannot be blocked. Super Street Fighter II Turbo adds the ability to recover from a throw in the air and reduce the damage taken by likewise holding or and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button.
Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent, with special moves still doing a small amount of "chip damage" if blocked. Characters can become dizzy from being attacked repeatedly; they are uncontrollable and vulnerable in this state but can recover more quickly by rapidly pressing back and forth on the D-Pad along with the attack buttons. It is also possible to escape grabs in this way.
Super Street Fighter II Turbo introduces a Super meter that fills when the player performs a special move or lands an attack (other than a throw or a grab) on an opponent. When the meter fills, it changes to read "SUPER," indicating that the player can perform a Super Combo, which is a more powerful version of a special attack, using a button combination that is slightly more complex than those used by special moves. The Super meter is reset after every round. If the opponent is defeated by a Super move at the end of the round, the background changes to a burst of light to indicate it was used as the final move.
Modes
The Arcade Mode is a single-player mode consisting of twelve matches against randomly chosen computer-controlled opponents, always concluding with the four Shadaloo bosses Balrog, Vega, Sagat, and M. Bison. If certain conditions are met, Akuma appears before the fight with Vega, pummels him, and fights the player instead. A second player can enter at any time to challenge the first by pressing START , with the victor continuing in the tournament. There are eight different difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents. Super Street Fighter II contains bonus stages after every three matches, but these are absent in Super Street Fighter II Turbo.
There is also a dedicated two-player Versus Mode where players can choose a handicap and pick any stage to play.
Characters
Move lists assume the player is facing right. If facing left, and should be reversed. P refers to any of the punch buttons, while K refers to any of the kick buttons. For moves that require pressing all three P or K buttons, pressing any two buttons also works.
All of the characters from previous versions of Street Fighter II return, with some receiving new moves. Four "New Challengers" have been added: T. Hawk, a Native American warrior from Mexico whose ancestral homeland was taken from him by Shadaloo; Fei Long, a Hong Kong movie star who wishes to test his martial arts against real opponents; Dee Jay, a kickboxing musician from Jamaica seeking inspiration for his next song; and Cammy, a 19-year-old female special forces agent from England with a mysterious past tied to M. Bison.
Players choose one of eight character color schemes: the character's default color scheme with LP , their color scheme from Champion Edition with MP , their color scheme from Hyper Fighting with HP , or one of five new color schemes (with any of the kick buttons or START , with one additional color scheme available by continuing to hold any button after choosing a character). In Super Street Fighter II Turbo, each character has received a new color scheme that replaced their original color scheme.
Bosses
The four Shadaloo bosses gained unique endings in Super Street Fighter II.
Balrog (M. Bison) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Date of birth: 1968-09-04 Height: 6'5" Weight: 252 lbs. Blood type: A | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
A former heavyweight champion who was banned from professional boxing for ignoring the rules of the ring and hired by M. Bison. Since he is a boxer, all of his attacks, even those executed with a kick button, are performed with his upper body (punches, elbow strikes, headbutts, and so forth).
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Vega (Balrog) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Date of birth: 1967-01-27 Height: 6'0" Weight: 208lbs Blood type: O | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
A vain and egotistical fighter who has blended the Japanese art of Ninjitsu with his matador skills, earning him the nickname of the "Spanish Ninja." He fights with a claw on one hand, which can be broken from blocking too many hits, reducing the damage of his punches. In Super Turbo, he can collect his claw after it breaks off and reattach it.
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Sagat | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Date of birth: 1955-07-02 Height: 7'4" Weight: 283 lbs. Blood type: B | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Once the original "King of the Street Fighters" and a master of the Muay Thai fighting style, Sagat has sworn to defeat Ryu and regain his title.
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
M. Bison (Vega) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Date of birth: Unknown Height: 5'11" Weight: 254 lbs. Blood type: A | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The leader of the crime syndicate Shadaloo. M. Bison rules over his empire with an iron fist, and he possesses a mysterious negative psychic power.
|
Hidden
- Main article: Street Fighter Collection/Hidden content.
Akuma only appears in Super Street Fighter II Turbo.
Akuma (Gouki) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
An emotionless and powerful warrior who fights with the dark energy of Satsui no Hadou. He does not have a Super meter, so he cannot perform Super Combos.
|
Stages
- Main article: Street Fighter Collection/Comparisons.
Each character has his or her own stage where matches are hosted (with the exception of Akuma, who is fought in M. Bison's stage). The stage can be manually chosen in the two-player mode.
Bonus stages
Super Street Fighter II contains a bonus stage in the Arcade Mode after every three matches won, but they were removed for Super Street Fighter II Turbo. Characters destroy inanimate objects within a time limit by attacking them for bonus points.
Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold
- Main article: Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold.
The second disc of the set contains Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold, an enhanced version of the original Street Fighter Alpha 2 (based on Street Fighter Zero 2 Alpha, an arcade-only upgrade released in Japan, Asia, and South America). All of the game modes and features from the previous port are featured, with the exception of the Saturn-exclusive Illustrations gallery. A new Akuma Mode has been added, where the player can fight Shin Akuma directly without needing to satisfy the conditions to make him appear as a foe in the Arcade Mode. Some characters have new moves and Super Combos. Champion Edition-style renditions of all the Street Fighter II characters have been added, alongside Cammy as a hidden character (as she previously appeared in X-Men vs. Street Fighter).
History
Development
In North America, the game was originally announced at E3 1997 as Super Street Fighter Collection[5].
Release
This collection was significant at the time as it provided the first wide release of Super Street Fighter II Turbo, originally released to arcades in 1994, in the West. Though it is now considered the definitive version of Street Fighter II, it was difficult to find in Western regions until the release of this compilation for the Saturn and the PlayStation since the only previous console port it received was for the comparatively obscure 3DO and since the Western release of the arcade game was unpopular because of the notoriously high difficulty of its computer-controlled opponents (which was corrected in Street Fighter Collection).
Even though the packaging for the PAL version does not mention Virgin Interactive, their logo still appears in-game.
Legacy
Capcom would later release Capcom Generation: Dai 5 Shuu Kakutouka-tachi for the Saturn and the PlayStation, which collects the three other arcade versions of Street Fighter II. The PlayStation version was released internationally as Street Fighter Collection 2.
Versions
Compared to the previous Sega Mega Drive and Super NES ports of Super Street Fighter II, the visuals and sounds of the Saturn and PlayStation versions are much more faithful to the arcade original. The 16-bit ports have extra modes and speed settings. They also replace the flaming oil drums of the third bonus stage with a pyramid-shaped brick wall.
The ports of Super Street Fighter II and Super Street Fighter II Turbo in Street Fighter Collection use the arcade soundtracks rather than the arranged soundtracks used in the FM Towns version of Super Street Fighter II and the 3DO version of Super Street Fighter II Turbo.
