Wrong about champion and turbo on the consoles. Championship is Turbo, but Nintendo had a deal with Cap to get the only Turbo. So Capcom gave it a different name, but its still Turbo on the Gen/MD

Other versions of all 16 main characters are playable by entering a simple code at the player select screen (jab up down down up jab for Sagat). Some of these characters are very good.

Too bad it doesn't have the stage variations from previous SF2 games.

2:38 WRONG! The Mega Drive also got SF2T. When Sega heard that Capcom intended to release SF2T for the SNES, they had Capcom delay the release of SF2CE so they can add "Exciting Mode" ("Hyper Mode" in the Western releases) to the Mega Drive version... which was basically "SF2T mode." They thus renamed the game SF2 Special Champion Edition, with the default "Champion/Dash Mode" being SF2CE, and "Hyper/Exciting Mode" being SF2T. On the SNES front, "Turbo Mode" is the default which is SF2T... while "Normal Mode" is SF2CE. 20:00 Prior to the Digital Eclipse garbage you mentioned for the PS2 and XBox, you also forgot that Hyper SF2 was released for the aforementioned consoles. HSF2 is essentially SSF2T with the OPTION to play as the older SF2 version characters, as well as option for 3 different sets of BGM tracks (CPS1,CPS2, Redbook Audio)... making it the definitive official SF2 game to date.

@@TechRyze That's right. In addition, the Mega Drive version of SF2T (Hyper/Exciting Mode) features 10 speeds by default, whereas the in SNES the latter 5 speeds must be accessed thru cheat code input. The Mega Drive version of SF2CE (Champion/Dash Mode) features 5 speeds via cheat code, which to date is the only version of SF2CE you are given the option to up the gameplay speed. The SNES version of SF2CE (Normal Mode) does not give the option of faster speed at all. Also, Group Battle Mode was added for the Mega Drive version, which was not present in the SNES version. The SNES version also had missing frames in the character animations (i.e. Chunli's time over animation) from the arcade that were present in the Mega Drive version. Moreover, on the continue screen, the character portraits for the 8 World Warriors are animated in the Mega Drive version just like in the arcade. The SNES version has static portraits during the continue countdown. The Mega Drive version has the HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER message pop up flashing in the middle of the screen like the arcade. The SNES version is just a boring marquee of the message scrolling along the top of the screen. Finally, the SNES version uses the remixed soundtrack, while the Mega Drive version use the original soundtrack. So as you can see, the Mega Drive version (Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition/Street Fighter II' PLUS) is actually the more faithful version to the arcade and overall the more superior deal than the SNES version.

Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo could NOT be run on any of the mainstream 16-bit systems available at the time. Not enough memory, they couldn't compress the game to fit on the carts of the time (which at $85 on the high were NOT cheap; a quality SSF2T port could have cost as much as a Neo Geo cart, $200!), and they simply could not replicate the QSound of the CPS-2 board on either the SNES or Sega Genesis. Super SF2 was the first Capcom fighting game to use the CPS-2 system and QSound; the ports to the Genesis and SNES while fair had to have their audio redone and the music on the SNES sounded nothing like the arcade. The SNES audio was just awful. Oddly enough, the Genesis's music audio sounded bit more like the arcade original SSF2 but the Sega systems seemed to handle MIDI better. The first home console that could run SSF2T relatively well was the 3DO and that version had its problems. I know because I owned it! Wonky stock control pad -- absolutely one of THE WORST system controllers I've ever used! -- and aside from the awkward Capcom 3DO Soldier Pad there was no proper 6-button pad controller for the 3DO. The 3DO Soldier Pad had the same awful D-pad the Sega Genesis version had. In this case, the SNES edition of that controller was better with a superior D-pad. Otherwise a decent port but the audio was reworked a bit. SSF2T on the 3DO was easily the best fighting game that system ever got. The PS1 and Saturn ports of SSF2T were fair but had their own issues. CPS-2 games in general didn't run that well on the PS1 and the PS1 version had some character animations cut. The Saturn version of SSF2T had some slowdowns (-- not quite enough memory to handle the game; it would have been a perfect port with the 4MB RAM extension cart but that came over a year later after SSF2T's release on the SF2 Collection). I say this as someone who owns that version and has owned or still owns 3 other ports of SSF2T for consoles! The best SSF2T port outside of MAME is the Sega Dreamcast version. They re-rendered the sprites to run at 640 X 480 and it was fantastic. Very little load time, no slowdown, true to arcade audio reproduction, and dip switches which no other home version had. You could customize it so you could select Akuma without running through hoops AND get English in the onscreen cinemas I believe or leave it in default mode. It also supported Netplay on Capcom's purpose built tournament service in Japan. Still ran fine on the American Dreamcase provided you have a mod chip or GameShark CD device to bypass the region lock security. Obviously, Netplay on the American Dreamcast was not available and you have to import the game; the Dreamcast was basically dead in North America by the time SSF2T was released in Japan for the Dreamcast. The Capcom Ages versions of the SF2 games ported to PS2 were generally poor because they were handled by a third party company with less than great care. They messed up audio and the games just didn't "feel" like the arcade as in the control response was off. Eventually, we got SSF2T HD Remix (PS3, XBox 360) but it's really not the original SSF2T game. For one, there's no scoring system. Secondly, the redone sprites are semi-awkward and don't resemble the drawn art style of the animation studio that did the CPS-2 games for Capcom since HD Remix was done by Udon artists working 13 years after the original SSF2T release so these guys had a different art style! I never liked the fact they got rid of the scoring system in HD Remix or that the original sprites hadn't been reworked like they were for the Dreamcast. I think the Dreamcast port of SSF2T was better because it WAS done by Capcom, not a third party company like all their CPS-1 and -2 ports have been contracted to for various consoles since 2002! In house ports to consoles done by Capcom of their arcade games were always superior to any ports done by third party companies.

Amazing video as are the rest of your Capcom history videos!

Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo was actually always called Super Street Fighter 2 X in Japan, and I wouldn't call the Dreamcast version ("for Matching Services") a new rearranged version as there aren't any changes to this version besides Akuma changes you mentioned.

Absolutely loving these Street Fighter uploads, please keep them coming!

Great video, but I noticed 2 errors until 6 minutes into the video: The first Genesis game is called Special Champion Edition, but it's actually just the Street Fighter 2 Turbo, not Champion Edition (actually, you can choose which version on menu screen, but Turbo is the main mode). And the new frames were added in Super Street Fighter 2, not Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (except for the new special moves of some characters, like Cammy's Cannon Ball or Ken's new fierce kick).

Something to note: SCE for the MegaDrive and SF2 Turbo for SNES were around the same timeframe, and had the other's featured modes as well. MD had the "Hyper" mode (which lets you play SF2 Hyper Fighting), while SNES just called the CE mode "Normal".

Just remembered I have a poster for the arcade release as well.

cool episode. Please feature all shmups on GB, gbc, and other handhelds...from best to worst. thanks

I love the video keep up the good work

One limitation of the PC version was that the statues in the last stage were not breakable as they were in the arcade. I remember reading somewhere that this was because the developers didn't have access to all the graphics necessary to do this.

08:54 that kiss ... made me pull out my two 3DOs & kiss them too in pure appreciation!

Hmmm, I had that EGM issue. I think their reviewers used the SNES controller adapter for the 3D0, and they only seemed willing to praise the game if you had the right controller setup. I seem to recall they were not fond of the pack-in controller for the 3D0.

I've got both the Saturn and Dreamcast versions of Super Turbo. The controller alone brings me to the Saturn version every time. I cannot play Street Fighter on a Dreamcast controller. I even got 6 button controller, but the added C and Z buttons don't mirror the L and R triggers like they should, they mirror the B and Y buttons for no reason. Maybe the official DC 6 button controller is better, but good luck finding one for a fair price. I'll just stick with my Saturn.

@D core I want a Saturn adapter. They're hard to get now. Haven't seen the arcade pad. Really just want a 6 button controller.

of the ports mentioned here, i own 3do, ps1 and dc....i also possess the arcade1up one... very similiar to the one in the recent sf collection ^^

I remember 'Street Fighter' and then 'Street Fighter 2: World Warrior' first hit Arcades. They became VERY popular REALLY QUICKLY. 'Street Fighter 2: World Warrior' was as big a technological leap over 'Street Fighter' as 1991's 'Terminator 2: Judgement Day' was over 1984's 'The Terminator' (and 'Mortal Kombat 2' was over 'Mortal Kombat'). 😉 👌🏾

Great video as always. One note tough. I think one version was missed. Hyper Street Fighter II. Which was released on arcades and was part of the Street Fighter anniversary collection for PS2 and Xbox.

The Mega Drive version of Champion Edition gave you the option to play Hyper Fighting so you had both games in one! It may have sounded bad, but it clearly played the best out of the two with the 6-button pad. The SNES version was a bit lazy but still fun to play!!

I've watched your videos here and there but your Capcom videos made me a subscriber and checking out your entire backlog of videos. But what the hell is that super large GBA SP looking device??

I love that the original game clips of ryu was what all players did. Jump hk then crouch hk. My brothers in his 40s does the same in sfv 😂

i do love the PC IBM MS-DOS version, despite the fact that i notice some glitches in the AI while playing. And if you ask me, the Soundtrack from the CD version of it is just as good as the one from both the FM-Towns and 3DO version.

I know you will talk about the HD remix and hyper in a later video but I felt they would've been appropriate for this video as well . Despite it's length

You just made it all more confusing. A simple timeline with box arts and plataforms would've been much, much more comprehensive.

I love my 3DO and my 3DO version!

I ended up grabbing the 30th anniversary edition for the NSW for 19.99 USD and it's so totally worth it. There's also a ton of concept art in the cart connected to all of the games.

michael 4 yes, she had a fireball in SF2 Hyper fighting, but that used her fierce standing palm strike as the animation for it. Super Street Fighter 2 was the first to use Capcom’s new CPS2 board and so the game received new animations, portrait pictures, characters and aural improvements.

LOL I ran the MS dos version on a stream for shits and giggles a few years ago. Aas a competitive player it was extremely broken and funny. You're always at essentially "close range" compared to the arcade port. I love that you've included it! It is definitely a version that needs to be mentioned more because other than that, it is surprisingly accurate. I was extremely impressed too. The only versions suitable for tournaments is the original arcade and Dreamcast -- with the correct dipswitches is the only *arcade perfect* port. I really wish capcom would release a version without input lag and arcade perfect. but All of us given up hope years ago. The dreamcast is all we're going to get. Even 30th anniversary is only "good enough" to introduce players to the game, but not good enough for the upper echelons of tournament play. It's still a great deal, as the other games don't have any issues for tournament play. CCC2 was complete garbage. and a nightmare for tournaments. Buttons would remap randomly due to a glitch. Strange, again you mentioned cammy being added to the roster in Alpha 2 gold, but then showed her in gameplay for Super Turbo. Great video covering my absolute favourite game since I discovered it!

Mega Drive / Genesis received the SPECIAL Champion Edition that included a speedup option that was even faster than the one in the Turbo Edition, making it virtually similar to the Turbo in the SNES, feature-wise. Also I never heard that 1 year exclusivity, in fact the story I knew is that Capcom signed exclusivity for Street Fighter II The World Warrior and Capcom then created Champion Edition, with this different title, to avoid this exclusivity.

There was also an anniversary collection for ps2 and Xbox that had ssf2t on it along with 3rd strike where you could take any version of the character. I'm guessing you didn't include it as not a straight port? Didn't know it was on Capcom collection 2 though. Nice vid.

A lot of the things you said were new to this game were introduced in the game previous

I almost bought a 3D0 back un the day because of this game ...thank god I didn't tho:)

I did. And it was awesome. I remember buying two of the six button controllers. I stayed on SSF2T, Samurai Showdown, Starblade, and Road Rash. Etc.

OK video but with a few hiccups. Failure to mention that Super Turbo was ALWAYS called Super X Grand Master Challenge in Japan, that Champion Edition was called Dash in Japan and the fact that New Challengers was ported onto the SNES and Mega Drive albeit briefly.

I remember getting the 3DO back in 94-95 on the sole purpose of Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo And Samurai shodown.

HD Remix (2008) was redesigned by David Sirlin, a top notch game designer. Its lack of lasting popularity is a very sad tale: It was never released in Japan, so many top players continued to prefer the arcade edition. Also, the hardware turned out to have (4 frames) input lag, which made enthusiasts upset. It's such a shame, since HD Remix featured many nice improvements, and I wish it was still played online.

SF II Special Champions edition on the Megadrive IS Champions and Hyper/Turbo Edition combined. It came after the Snes version of Turbo. I'm sure this comments section already mentioned this.

The megadrive version had turbo option as well, hence the Special in the title for Champion Edition, with the hyper settings in the main menu, so wasn't exactly crushed, especially as the megadrive version also got support for the far better 6 button pad, which is why I bought that version instead of SNES hyper fighting even though I had the original on my SNES. Shoulder buttons for street fighter sucks even to this day on modern controllers.

Genesis was far more accurate to the arcade as well. The simple fact that the Genesis version had cps chains left intact from the arcade version is a pretty big deal for advanced players. Snes does not have them

@@SabreAZ Thank you. I always hate reading comments on comparison videos of ports because people always say the SNES had the better Street Fighter ports. In terms of accuracy the Genesis was much closer (the sound is also closer since the sound chips are both FM synth). The 6 Button pads are amazing too. There are still slight differences from the arcade (Guile's neutral jumping punches have the same animation as the diagonal versions), but the two Genesis ports are simply fantastic.

@@dallas2314 exactly. People are too wound up on nicer color pallete and the fsct that capcom just made a bad voice sample audio driver. But like you said, similar sound chip to cps1. So all the sounds and music are directly ported from the arcade. The music straight up slaughters the SNES version in accuracy, and while the bitrate wuality on voices is really low, its still the arcade voices. Snes dont have that. All the little details are present, but not on snes Cps chains is, however the biggest deal. The fact that snes does not have this feature is big. It doesnt surprise me tho, the arcade team are the ones that made the genesis version. A separate team did the snes ports, and it shows. People can favor the snes version for any reason and thats fine. But facts is facts

@@dallas2314 i cannot stand fightcade. Cesspool of asshats. I was actually one of the original team that tested the GGPO client before it was released, back in 2005. Fightcade is hacking the ggpo client, so it has issues. And the fba emulator used is terrible. It only worked well if you are on a winXP machine and a crt monitor. Other wise, the emulator is laggy, and the game is visually choppy and drops frames, and this is just offline with the emulator. Hopefully with ggpo being open source now, we can finally see true implementation on modern, better emulators.

If you haven't done it yet, you need to look at the Arcade 1ups. particularly the Streetfighter consoles.
