Same Street Fighter 2 Intro But Different Versions
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 มิ.ย. 2024
- Street Fighter II is a classic fighting game that was released in 1991 and has since been released in several different versions and on various platforms. Street Fighter II features iconic characters such as Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, and Guile, as well as the memorable theme music composed by Yoko Shimomura.
The intro for Street Fighter II has remained largely the same across all versions of the game, but there are some slight differences between the various releases. For example, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) version of Street Fighter II has a slightly different intro than the arcade version, with slightly different graphics and a different arrangement of the theme music. The Street Fighter II Turbo edition, which was released for the SNES in 1993, also features a slightly different intro than the original Street Fighter II. The Sega Genesis/Mega Drive version of Street Fighter II also featured some changes to the intro sequence in order to remove references to racial stereotypes.
In addition to the differences in the intro graphics and music quality, there are also some slight variations in the character designs and backgrounds between the different versions of Street Fighter II. However, the core gameplay and overall feel of the game remains largely the same across all versions.

I was always confused by the intro. The intro was two regular guys in a street fight, and the game was called Street Fighter. I got that far. But the actual game was superhumans fighting each other with supernatural/magic powers, and not the kind of thing you would see in an actual street fight.
I guess most people don't have powers.
I see hadukens used in the streets all the time. Flying sumo's, stretching limbs and electric demons are all common.
@@Yor1908 he's NOT a Demon....you're a demon 🥺
In the original concept was street fighting (the now forgotten street fighter)
@@augustoortiz1254 I think that’s what they’re aiming to fix with SF6, making every person capable of magic like in dragon ball.
*MAX:* "How many times am I gonna get punched in the face?"
*SCOTT:* "Yes."
Max knows his place.
Poor Max 😢
@@samsami607 And people celebrating 😆
SJW: "That's racist!"
Who is the other guy if it’s not max on Genesis? A faker to Scott?
For anyone who doesn’t know, the guys in the intro have official names now as of SF5’s release. The white guy’s name is Scott and the black guy’s name is Max. Max even made an appearance in one of the SF5 stages, I believe during the story mode.
I thought that the white guy was cody
@Pomegranate There is actually 3 different versions of this scene.
The 3 characters are just generic fighters:
-Max: The black guy & Max 2: much lighter hair & skin.
-Scott: The white guy on the right.
-Nameless White Guy: The white guy on the left that replaced Max due to racist claims in later releases.
More info here:
th-cam.com/video/TrITRLr780A/w-d-xo.html
@ThunderFist1978 I'm surprised that they didn't also name the white dude that replaced Max in later versions due to racist claims.
th-cam.com/video/TrITRLr780A/w-d-xo.html
@@mexicanbox420 People have also thought that the white guy was Joe and the black guy was Mike from SF1. For years that has been the persistent theory, and that’s probably why Capcom gave them their own profiles. Incidentally, their profiles say they are both boxers, and if Capcom wants to put a boxer in SF6 at some point, I would have no objection to Max being a boxer for SF6. He’s already come back in one of SF5’s backgrounds, and none of the currently announced SF6 characters seems to be a boxer.
@@alexisjohnson
They fixed that fighter for punching a minority
It never fails for MS-DOS to make every game music seem like a fantasy adventure game soundtrack.
ken's theme Is a fantasy adventure game soundtrack?
I know right? it wouldnt feel out of place if you had game footage from like Ys with that music playing over it.
@@giuannde That particular arrangment of it gives me those vibes, yeah.
If the game comes in floppy disks, the sound is terrible.
@@redacted2275True, had it on Commodore Amiga 500 on 8 Floppies. Greek Café down the street had a brand new "Super" machine. Seeing the ryu intro blew my mind compared to the Amiga.
Played the hell out of this on SNES! Thumb blisters and all!
Good times!
Hell yeah!!!
So did I. I had the original that came with the system, but also got the turbo version in a steel tin at the same time as I got the system. Needless to say I was very happy for a good while lmao.
Same! The turbo version was awesome. I still remember the code to get more stars and make it faster. "Down, R, up, L, Y, B"
@@jamesromero1733 Yes! That's how I played it!
Imagine a game being made with that intro today.
They switched Max’s race in the Sega version.
Super Hate Crime II: Arcade Edition
@@HisNameWasCrazy🤣🤣🤣
Super Street Fighter 2: Based Edition
This game was the only clip of white on black violence that the liberals could find... Sega Genesis fixed that. 😃
That opening theme. Man. Memories of going to the gas station down the road to play this with my friends.
Definitely the super Nintendo version is the most nostalgic to me it really makes me feel good hearing it
Doesn’t even have the intro animation. That’s dissappointing.
@@DNGMaestro what about the graphics?
@@DNGMaestro If the snes version of street fighter 2 was a bad and disappointing port, then why did it get scored 94 as the second best snes game? huh? that's why there's so many fans of the snes version.
@@scm64entertainment44 it’s just the intro screen that’s dissapointing, which is the theme of this video. The game itself is awesome on the snes.
@@DNGMaestro The NES version does though, they probably either forgot or got lazy with the intro part but yeah the game is amazing itself.
I grew up listening to the intro cycle in the arcades - finally got to try the amiga version and mega drive later after years of pumping the coins into the arcade. Its fascinating seeing/hearing the different versions all trying to tap into the original artwork/midi soundtrack but coming away with slightly different and sometimes wholly original versions! Still a great game.
Love hearing the theme in so many different styles! Wonderful showcase!
"Winners don't use drugs"
I love how the ZX spectrum version started off with "yeah my bad" then proceeds to play a song that's not even the title song.
Ryu replacing scott and max with his
Pose.
Yeah that's balrog's theme.
Guess nobody down there knew how
To do the streetfighter theme.
@@nehemiahpouncey3607 Wrong. Balrog's theme.
@@TallSilentGuy you know your version
Of streetfighter 2 is doomed if
It don't have the two guy's fighting
Or the actual theme.
@@TallSilentGuy thanks.
It's long overdue for Scott, & Max as Playable Characters in SF6.
Yeah Capcom what are y'all
Waiting for?
@@nehemiahpouncey3607 the Better Question should be Street Fighter should have an "Everybody is Here" type of Rpster, instead of Catering to the Esports Crowd.
They should have rotated the characters 😢
But I’m down with using Max and Scott as playable characters
Weren't they in Street Fighter?
@@wesleymcneese8554 You mean Mike in SF1?
All of these variations of the intro theme is a trip, clearly inspired by various styles
I got the anniversary edition and playing it on my 65"4K Nanocell T.V in my bedroom is cool. I'm enjoying all nostalgic sounds. You earned yourself a new suscriber ☝️
Some notes:
* The ZX Spectrum intro is from a bootleg copy of the game.
* In both the Japanese and International Genesis versions, Scott’s sprite was redrawn with higher quality more akin to the Champion Edition portraits, being somewhere between the level of those and the portraits in Super SF2. It is possible Scott and Max would have appeared again in Super, and the updated sprites on the Genesis version are all that remains of the idea. Or maybe the redrawn sprites would have been in Hyper Fighting, but they ran out of time to add them.
I ❤ Octavious!
You forgot the streeet fighter 2 hyper fighting for the arcade and his turbo version, but nothing i like to say, great video!
Here's a fun thought, what would happen if Street Fighter's back story were like Fight Club
The white guy is just in the black guy’s imagination the whole time?
Lots of nostalgia from my childhood. THX
the sound track to my childhood. GOD do I miss the Arcade! Not just the Arcades, back then, every video store every fish and chip shop... Been struggling for years now even to find a pinball machine 😞 I know they still have them at bowling alleys but still...
Hearing that music gets me hyped up every time. Just take my quarters.
I played ARCADE when i was a kid but the 1992 Super Nintendo Intro makes me goosebumps. nostalgia from my past childhood
There is actually a story behind Scott and Max. Back in the 90s, someone actually wrote a letter to developers in Japam concerning the black fighter getting clocked by the white fighter in front of a crowd of white onlookers. I personally never thought of anything of it back then and they didn't either in a response letter. From then on every version had 2 white fighters with a more diverse crowd of on lookers. I can speak much on the Oscar Fighter version with Will Smith and Chis Rock though.
That's because it literally had nothing to do with race. Racial obsession does not look like "anti-racism" to me.
The intro was cut entirely starting in Super, replaced with one of Ryu. The sprites done for the Genesis version may be a remnant of the Scott and Max intro being planned for Super.
@@snarkasticdouche3863 I imagine that you can understand how something can be a bad look, even if unintentionally, right?
@@NounOzlosimagine being that sensitive? So weak and pathetic. Grow up
I like how in the MS DOS version, his fist doesn't reach, yet he still gets knocked out
They move like they're drunk, too lol
He’s so used to getting clocked, he just anticipates it and goes down anyway
My brother has the SNES version, we played that and played the arcade game version as well. We loved playing the arcade version be it at bowling alleys, pizzerias, fun centers, amusement parks, or anywhere we could find one.
7:16 Poor M Bison. Completely snuffed out of that cast photo! Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
Had to double check myself, he's beside Sagat in the back. Merry Xmas 🎅
Mega Drive just inching arcade perfection as always
That Amiga 500 music was rockin'!!! 1:00
Yep, cooler than even the original arcade music in a way 🤘😎
Holy cow, that Amiga one hits!
The amiga 500 theme is awesome.
The best one for sure!
The sega megadrive one was amazingly accurate.
The megadrive, console of the 'cool' kids. Main focus on bad arcade ports with poor sound and color. Surpassed by the much older Amiga with the greatest of ease. 0 effort in creating their own decent lib. The fan base even worse than the console itself 😂
Oh im sorry! Im not educated enough to see the whole picture and my 2G internet doesnt allow me to see the entire video. Thank you thankful gamer for illustrate me with your wisdom... head of chota.
@@elprofedebiovicio9124 you needed to edit your post (fix typo's) because you got triggered 😂
correct,gameplay is also far superior than snes,and the sound is faithful to the arcade as well,what's the use with better soundchip than megadrive but the soundtrack went far off
Yep, the genesis was way better. Amazing for a weak console.
The Amiga one rips so hard! Perfect breakdance beat
Really nostalgic. Remember playing in my cousin house.
The drums in megadrive version is amazing
Arcade Champion Edition was released in 1992 and later the same year the Hyper Fighting/Turbo which you forgot to include.
Don't forget the one where Will Smith slaps Chris Rock 😆
Seriously lol????
@@garystinten9339 LmMFaol yeah seriously
ROTFLMAO 🤣
Gotta love them 8-bit midi synths.
Oh btw I had the SNES version, and yeah,. I've been playing street fighter for approximately 30 years.
First! You are cranking out the content here. Well done!
Always!
excelente amigo !
Watching this video I realize how ironically in the 90's the consoles where the kings of videogames because computers were too weak compared to consoles, but nowadays the tables are turned and the PC is the king of videogames, while today are lot of great consoles to choose from, no one can come close to replicate the power of a PC, and this video where all kind of street fighter 2 intros are compared is just a perfect example of this
Thats completely nonsense
@@primus711 I know it sounds like nonsense, and I understand you don't believe me, but you don't have to believe me, just check the history of gaming for yourself
@@danielkun616 guy its nonsense because of what you said computers were not weaker the reason is because consoles were waaaaaaay cheaper and affordable gaming for kids
@@primus711 well, I don't have anything else to say, I don't wanna fight with another random guy on the internet so I will just let this way, have a nice day
@@danielkun616 its not a fight its just the truth
I remember a hacked SF2 where one of the punchers was Balrog (Boxer).
Dunno if they are still around.
Thanks!!! I have just discovered a lot of differences I would never imagine! Like for example: The crowd in the background in Sega Genesis/Mega drive "Special champion edition" has 3 frames of animation even thou in the CPS1 Arcade version only had two frames!!! I have played my entire life and never noticed this LOL thanks again ;) Love SF2CE(J) (or SF2SPC) The indisputable perfect fighting game! Never again a game would be made with such heart&passion, graphics, music, stages, creativity and BALANCE ... The absolute perfection!
The Genesis port was released one year late, that's why it's upgraded... the 32 bit also have three frames, a less clunky animation and Mike's still bIack, not white like in the Genesis' version.
Ms dos music is cool, a lot of the limited hardware ones are surprisingly good.
Trying to wrap my head around Street Fighter II on the Atari ST ...
Also, Street Fighter II on the Commadore 64. Have heard of it being a disk-swapping, slow-loading nightmare with the 80s computer.
@@ggn3 I'm not sold if that is correct. C64 release was on a tape as they were the commonly used media rather than disks. However if there was a floppy release as well, I would rather assume it was a single disk and hence it would need just Side A to Side B swap at best. But please correct me if I'm wrong, this is just my assumption as I had Atari 65XE with floppy around C64 era and already the Amiga 500 when SF2 came out.
Amiga sounds and feels epic
What's peculiar to me is the X68000 seems to be missing a few instruments from the arcade version, despite the CPS-1 arcade board and the Sharp X68000 sharing comparable hardware and even the same assets. Are the sound capabilities of both machines different ?
I think, I could be wrong, the sharp computer had different sound chips available that you could buy and place in the machine. I’m guessing they were variants of the Yamaha YM fm synthesis line of chips but I don’t really know because I never had one, just an educated guess. So there may have been some incompatibilities. I remember the msdos port being quite decent!
Great memories with the MD/GEN love it 👍
Thanks for this video 👍
i like that the DOS version just uses a slightly edited version of Ken's Theme
I remember playing it growing up
I don't know why you would include the Playstation and Saturn Japanese Capcom Generations 5 intro and not include the arcade openings for Hyper Fighting and the Japanese Turbo Hyper Fighting intro?
Props to the black guy for sacrificing his face 20 times.
I wanted to see some version, or a hack rom where the black guy hits the white guy in the opening, it would be pretty funny.
I want capcom to put that as for sf6
You could probably just palette swap the rom
@@zachw2538 It's because the story of this opening of Street Fighter II got funny over time, the black guy just gets beaten up. There was even a console version that, in order not to cause trouble, put two white guys, one of them to replace the black guy. So it would be pretty funny if they had the black guy hitting the white guy. It would be a kind of revenge for the black guy, since he was always beaten in the face over time in the opening of Street Fighter II. Revenge is a dish best served cold.🤣
why would that be funny exactly not getting the punch line
@@zachw2538
I doubt it would be difficult at all for a simple color swap, but it would be hilarious if the punch actually comes from black on the left side of the screen. It would be like watching water drain in the opposite direction or seeing someone drive on the wrong side of the road.
2:52 the best of the best, it is the best opening song of street fighter 2
Arcade versions were always the best.
When life was good....
The PSOne/Saturn tune was used in the PS2 5th Anniversary Collection ooening.
I grew up with nes version that time arcade and SNES version was too expensive to play in my country 🇵🇭 I didn't knew that the other version excist
I have the Gameboy version too...
Qué bárbaro amigo no descansas. Y de ribete me traes Street fighter en un vídeo, es como un regalito para navidad que es mi videojuego favorito.
En la versión de MS-DOS el tipo de blanco es tan poderoso que noqueó al otro tipo sin necesidad de sacar el puño 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣👊
Me creerías si te dijera que no sabía que había una versión para NES D:
Para mí las mejores versiones serán las de SNES
El de la NES era una versión piratilla y sin licencia! Pero tiene su punto de interés.
Todo bien, espero que por allá igual. Felices fiestas!
@@BitsBeats Ya decía yo xDDDD yo ví un Street fighter de NES tenía 26 peleadores, pero de esos "26" había como 4 blankas con diferente color de pelo y cara, pero eran lo mismo y 2 bison creo, era para morirse de la risa 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣👌
Felices fiestas para ti también.
X68K is the best version of all for 16-bit home PC.
But the definitive version is the Arcade.
And SS and PS1 for 32-bit home console
3:22 gotta love it lol
Remember that time when the OG Gameboy had better music than PC? 😂
I got the arcade one up version that has all three of them. Love this game.
Booting this game up on my Amiga as a kid at home, gaming Heaven.
DOS ken's theme is hilarious
Genesis was like, that’s racist 😂
That ear achin', head splittin' music!
Iconic gaming Punch!
Ryu supposedly only weighing 150 pounds despite obviously being roided up to the gills is one of the funniest bits of game comedy ever.
His muscles are hollow.
色んなバージョンのスト2オープニング聴けてよかったー❤ ありがとう
I wish they didn’t do things like that back then.they should have had them both punching eachother to a ko and called it the day. They knew what they was doin 😂
Master System version is the pinnacle of Brazilian gaming industry.
An instant classic!!
1:58 got to give the props to ZX SPECTRUM wich was aware of itself
For each time I watch this intro it makes me wanna get out my soapbox and my bow tie lol
I wonder if I have any of these versions in my emulation station. It's pretty cool to see the old crappy versions lol.
Zx spectrum:scott and Max couldn't
Make it today or tonight so we'll
Just show Ryu posing for your enjoyment.😂
1:58
Love the one hit ko of the fake tough guy, on the right.
Never had paid attention to the "prime" symbol (apostrophe) on versions with blue letters in the title, starting up with the MD/Genesis one.
Street Fighter II PRIME HYPER FIGHTING.
While Nintendo got the Street Fighter II Turbo HYPER FIGHTING.
🤔
You forgot the arcade version of the Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting intro
Sega Genesis = Sega Mega Drive. Actually, it was named Genesis only on USA, and Mega Drive on the rest of the world. (Japan, Europe, South America, Asia, Middle East...)
the Dos version opening sounds like the chorus from Daft Punk's instant crush lol. poor old max must have a glass of pure stone after all the times he get took that punch from scott haha
Did I miss the Turbo CD port?
Man, i love the mega drive conversion 😍
If this video shows any thing is that that modern game developers & programmers don't have the creative drive to figure out how to make something work on something with limited capabilities.
I never understood why the intro with the blonde guy and black guy had anything related to street fighter, unless it was about random citizens fighting on the street? Hence the name street fighter?
well they are fighting, on the street. so, street fighter.
Mega Drive version so good they had to ‘Play it again, Sam’.
The character on the street fighter 2 intro is Cody from Final Fight.
Once when I was a kid I swear that I saw the black man hitting the white one. Please someone tells me that it wasn't a dream!
Nintendo was one of the least racist versions
That Atari ST midi beat is actually kinda 🔥
2:34 those are magical punches.
PC engine was soo unique and had many interesting games. I miss it soo much.
Agreed. I've been playing it on my MisTer and loving it.
The SNES version was mind blowing, but the Mega Drive/Genesis version was a serious triumph considering its limited hardware.
Super Nintendo and GAMEBOY are massive nostalgia rushes! SFII on GAMEBOY is something that IMO was severely under appreciated
How about they have a cheat code or a new version where Scott gets an uppercut by Max after he perfectly times the telegraph punch ?
Finally world tour got this right.
🤣 Funny. I was playing SF2 Special Champion Edition Last Night again on my Sega Megadrive. Love that game. I have not seen 99% of these intros, thanks for showing them.
Amiga had a legendary sound-board
2:00 Oh, man! I was tricked again by those s3xy artworks.
On the SNES, I don't get why it doesn't have the part where the man knocks out another man
Hardware limitations
@@hoodmistressreloaded Really? Then why does the Sega Genesis have that in it? Does the Genesis have more memory than the SNES does?
@@jaydenrodriguez8562 You're right. The Genesis cartridge actually has more megs than SNES
