    Episode Notes:
    1. Captured on real hardware.
    2. Arcade footage via MAME.
    3. The Japanese version of this was called Street Fighter Real Battle on Film.
    4. There is also a FMV game on the Saturn called Street Fighter II Movie which is mostly based on the animated film around the same time.
    5. The arcade version of Street Fighter The Movie has never been ported to anything.
    6. The console version has never been reissued for anything.
    7. Though the actual film was considered a huge disappointment, it still made nearly 100 million dollars on a 35 million dollar budget.
    8. The guy that did the screenplay, Steven E. de Souza, also directed it.

    While it is unfortunate that the movie was not good, it was a sweet gesture on Raul Julia's part, upon learning he was terminal, signing up for the movie as a final gift to his kids because they loved the game.

    It looks like they took the arcade sprites and scaled them down bilinearly in a computer application, making them extremely soft. It would've looked much better had they had redigitized the assets at the new size to begin with.

    And, how ironic, the "EX moves" mechanic from this game would be a staple in future SF games.

    Never played the home version of this, but I remember being mesmerized by how good the arcade version looked.

Considering what modders have been doing with other 2D fighters, ripping their sprites to run in Mame fan projects, it seems possible.

      It's a shame too if they just taken the arcade and tweaked the gameplay instead of throwing everything out and trying to make a brand new game (quickly and cheaply I might add) it probably would have turned out much better.

    For the arcade version, even though it's rough in gameplay it has that special kind of brokenness that makes a person want to keep trying to beat it if you're willing to actually have fun with it. Once you stop comparing it to other Street Fighters and start learning things about it you'll see it's actually fun and shouldn't be ignored just because a certain group of people don't like it because of their standards.

    Just to clarify some of the points in the video description:
    The home version of the game is just a slightly jankier Super Turbo with digitized assets made in-house by Capcom. It's not great, but it's a better playing game than most people give it credit for. Playing a reskinned Super Turbo absolutely has its appeal. Live action Akuma is also... silly.
    The arcade version of the game is actually a wholly different game that only resembles ST. It's made by another developer (Incredible Technologies, that mostly just makes casino games now) with minimal oversight from Capcom. It has multiple supers per character, which is neat. That's about all that's neat, though, the game is terrible other than the spectacle of playing a video game of a movie about a video game.

    Edit: Ok, make it one of the first rather than the first. My mistake on that one. I’ll be the first to say I have little experience in the fighting game genre or much knowledge on their history. Sorry about that.
    This was featured on Digital Foundry’s look at the PlayStation launch (in this game’s case, North American), and they made a point about how this may actually be the first fighting game to feature a story mode. Thinking about that and the many fighting games after it that would feature story elements, including future Street Fighter entries, I’d say this game may have been influential than its given credit for. It’s true that games like Tekken did the story especially better, but this game did plant the seed for a significant development for the fighting genre, and for that alone it is a noteworthy entry in fighting games and the Street Fighter series.

      Ehhh, i don't know about that. I'd much more credit Art of Fighting 1 or Fatal Fury 1 as the first fighting game to feature story elements in it's arcade mode. AOF 1 especially was pretty heavy story wise for the time.

      @@orlanzo2621 ​ Yeah plenty of fighting games had a story mode, or a cinematic story. Especially SNK fighters. Even one of the sequels to Fighter's History that was released on the super famicon was basically nothing but a story mode with battles. I can't say I'm a fan of the idea because you're always limited to 1-3 characters in story-focused fighters.

      That is false cause both Shaq Fu and Double Dragon V had a Story Mode and both came out in 1994 for the Super NES and Sega Genesis, one year before this game got release. All the SNK Neo Geo fighting games had story in them except for the so call dream match titles which doesn't had story (and even if they do, those are not canon to the actual saga of that series) cause those brought back dead characters from past games against new and current characters on the roster. Games like Samurai Shodown 5 Special, Samurai Shodown 6, Fatal Fury Special, Real Bout Fatal Fury 2, KOF 94, KOF98, and KOF12 all doesn't had story as those were just dream match titles.

    I dont think capcom was able to do better animation.. the game uses the Original Super Street Fighter 2 turbo engine in the background. The game Is the SSFT2 with some tweaks. So the game must be limited to the animation and speed of the original.
    To quote fightersgeneration
    "Capcom copy-pasted the digitized character sprites over to the Super Street Fighter II Turbo engine, but completely reworked the visuals and audio. Dee Jay and Blanka were added to the roster, as footage by the actors was recorded earlier but the team didn't have time to put the data into the arcade version"

The Arcade game looked Really Good for the time but played Horribly. Got the Saturn version when it dropped and it played a LOT better but looked like crap. If the Saturn version had the Arcade's Graphics or close to it or Capcom had done the Controls on the Arcade version it would be remembered a LOT more fondly than it is now.

    Not too good graphically (it almost looks like just a 32X cartridge, with the characters suffering from reduced sprite size and detail), but it does play better than the arcade. You don't get Bison's troopers such as F7 and Blade, but Dee Jay and Blanka are back. I wonder if PS1, being less friendly to RAM hungry 2D fighting games, was the lead platform instead of Saturn.

    One of the few games I own for my Saturn lol.

This game made more of an impression than the 3 EX games did, for instance.

      It's just a shame we didn't get something much closer to the arcade with this at least visually. I think if they had been able to bring the visuals of the arcade but the changes in gameplay they did for the console at the very least it would have been a good more memorable game.

  • @TheJoeDavis

    To be honest, i kinda like this game. I equate it to SF Turbo crossed with MK digitized characters. At the time, no SF home console game looked like it. The soundtrack was and still is very cool in an quirky way. It had an almost immersive feel to it. The movie battle mode was cool in that it let you pick your path based on events in the movie. I still like playing a few rounds of it even today.

  • @ravagingwolverine
    @ravagingwolverine 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I had the game when it was new too. I got it for similar reasons. I was able to get a new game at that point, and there wasn't a great selection, so I ended up with it. And it was a holdover until the holiday season, as you say. I enjoyed it for what it was at the time, but it was hard to go back after I had my fill. One thing I've learned over the years seeing these digitized fighting games is that Midway was way ahead of everyone else in making those graphics work. Not only did their stuff tend to have enough animation, they also understood what movements worked and what didn't. For The arcade version of SF the Movie, there's better color and animation, but it still looks ugly and stiff to me, with goofy moves. Whoever directed the motion capture didn't understand how to make some of the frames look good. Looking at Sagat, he's got awful key frames for a number of things, such as his crouching. It looks unnatural. Blanka looks awful in every way, from design to animation. Bison has a terrible flying stomp move. It was a sign of the times and developers and players had to learn what worked and what didn't. Considering how much animation was cut and how they took color out of the sprites for the home version, I suspect the game assets took up more space than one would expect for whatever reason.
    Whoever chose the font either didn't know what they were doing, or knew exactly what they were doing, as "5 hit super combo" looks like "Shit super combo finish" and that's pretty funny.
