Trivia

The game was released only in Japan and Asia. Versions for North America and Europe were released only for home consoles (see Ports section below). The core of the game is based on "Super Street Fighter II X - Grand Master Challenge" ("Super Street Fighter II Turbo" outside of Japan), but now players have up to 5 different versions of each character to choose from.

The arcade intro has reverted back to the one found in "Super Street Fighter II - The New Challengers" with the new addition being the title screens from the previous Street Fighter II games alternating between lightning flashes.

The title screens for the CPS I games "Street Fighter II - The World Warrior", "Street Fighter II' - Champion Edition", and "Street Fighter II' Turbo - Hyper Fighting" are presented for the first time on the CPS II hardware via this game's intro.

Though the character select screen layout is the same as the one found in "Super Street Fighter II Turbo", its music has changed back to the character select music found in "Super Street Fighter II - The New Challengers," which itself is a remixed version of the character select music from "Street Fighter II - The World Warrior".

The version of the character corresponds to the Street Fighter II game that they were playable in : Normal ("Street Fighter II - The World Warrior"), Dash ("Street Fighter II' - Champion Edition"), Turbo ("Street Fighter II' Turbo - Hyper Fighting"), Super ("Super Street Fighter II - The New Challengers") and Super X ("Super Street Fighter II X - Grand Master Challenge").

The background music playback format has changed since it was introduced in Super Street Fighter II - The New Challengers. Previously, the background music will change to the 'KO version' of the music on the second round onward when one of the character loses enough health to cause the KO sign to flash. In this game, the 'KO version' of the music will play on the second round onward only when the character who loses enough health to cause the KO sign to flash is in danger of losing not only the round, but the match as well.

Color schemes for the stage backgrounds are still the same as for "Super Street Fighter II - The New Challengers" and "Super Street Fighter II X - Grand Master Challenge". However, a few background elements originally seen exclusively in "Street Fighter II - The World Warrior" have returned :

  1. The dual barrels and stack of boxes in Ken's stage (from "Champion Edition" to 'Super X' there was just a single barrel).
  2. The breakable 'Fuurinkazan' signs in Ryu's stage.
  3. The lantern on the left side of E. Honda's stage.

Conversely, background elements that were present since Super Street Fighter II - The New Challengers are now missing, for instance, the toucan that flies away at round's end in DeeJay's stage.

Tips And Tricks

Holding Start while selecting 'Super' for the version of your character will select the secret 'Super' version of the character as found in "Super Street Fighter II X - Grand Master Challenge".

Pressing the Start button to select your character when using the Normal, Super, or old Super version of the character will select them in an alternate classic outfit, used originally when two players simultaneously used the old version of the same character in "Super Street Fighter II X - Grand Master Challenge".
