Though restricted by the 64 color palette and an on-screen limit of four enemies at a time (in contrast to the arcade's whopping ten enemies on-screen), the game offers an enhanced CD soundtrack, voice acted cutscenes and an exclusive time attack mode. Content-wise, the Mega-CD version is a more complete port of the game than the earlier [[Super NES]] version published by Capcom in 1990, as it contains all three playable fighters and all six stages, as well as retaining the 2-player co-op mode from the arcade.

The PAL version has one less credit than the Japanese version, health restoring items seem to appear less frequently, a short dialogue between Cody and Guy during the ending was cut, a palette bug can happen in the bar in stage 4, causing people and the barkeeper to have a brownish tone. The PAL version was partially speed optimized as forcing the game into 60Hz mode makes it run too fast.

Final Fight CD (ファイナルファイトＣＤ) is a Sega Mega-CD beat-'em-up game developed by A-Wave and published by Sega. An enhanced port of the titular 1989 Capcom arcade game Final Fight, it was first released in Japan in April 1993[2] to critical and commercial success. It has since developed a reputation as one of the best games for the Mega-CD.
The game is set in the metropolis of Metro City, a town constantly plagued by crime and violence. When the mayor, Mike Haggar, promises to clean up the city, the Mad Gear Gang kidnaps his daughter Jessica and warns him not to interfere. Haggar responds going on a battle across the city to free her, bringing along her boyfriend Cody, and the ninjitsu master Guy to assist him.
Gameplay
Gameplay consists of continually moving to the right, defeating any enemies that appear on the way to each stage's boss with a variety of hand-to-hand attacks, such as punches, kicks, and throws. Player chooses between three main characters, each with his own fighting style and attributes. Health gauges are displayed for both player and enemy characters. Barrels, trash cans, and other objects can be broken to reveal food to restore health, items which increase the player's score, and weapons, such as knives, pipes, and swords. Weapons have limited uses and will disappear if the player is disarmed by an enemy too much or when the player moves to a new area.
Characters are moved by pressing the D-pad in any direction, and or jumps. Characters attack with . Each character has a basic combo that can performed by rapidly hitting the attack button, several attacks that can be performed while in the air, and the ability to grapple opponents by walking close to them. While grappling an enemy, the character can either attack an enemy three times before letting them go or throw them in another direction. Enemies can be thrown at each other for additional damage. All three characters also have a special attack, performed with + or +, that knocks away all opponents surrounding them. This attack costs a small amount of health if it connects and cannot be performed if the player does not have enough health.
