Sega fans waited more than a year after the Super NES got Street Fighter II for a version of their own, and Capcom's Special Champion Edition arrived in 1993 with more content than Nintendo's port. It combines Champion Edition, which made the four Grand Masters playable and allowed mirror matches, with a Hyper mode based on Hyper Fighting (Turbo), which raised the speed and gave several characters new special moves.
All twelve fighters are here: Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Guile, Blanka, Zangief, Dhalsim and E. Honda plus Balrog, Vega, Sagat and M. Bison. Sega released a six-button controller around the same time, since the game uses three punches and three kicks. On a three-button pad, Start switches the buttons between punches and kicks, which is clumsy but workable, and it is how the game plays with this site's keyboard mapping. Group battle modes for friends round out the package.
Tips for Street Fighter II': Special Champion Edition
Charge characters like Guile need you to hold back for a moment before pressing forward and attack.
Use Hyper mode once you know the basics; the faster speed rewards quick reactions and combos.
