If you choose a character, the CPU will select your partner unless a second player joins in. That partner selected by the CPU will always be the same depending on which character you chose, as indicated below:
For a two on one battle, select "Dramatic Battle" and choose either "1P and Com Vs. Com" or "Original Dramatic Battle" and select the normal course. Player 2 can join in fight together against the CPU opponent.
Select Chun-Li with X-ISM, to get her original outfit and her Spinning Bird Kick. Select Sagat with X-ISM to have his Tiger Uppercut instead of the Tiger Blow. Select Sodom with X-ISM for his original weapon, a deadly katana blade. With X-ISM, your character cannot Air Block and can only perform one super combo (marked red in the manual). You will play as in "Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo" and your character will also be more powerful and cannot Zero Counter.
The features of Shadowlaw ISM are: your character is much stronger, zero Counters only take one level but super moves take 3, and your character can charge quicker.
The Z-ISM features are like in "Street Fighter Alpha 2": Three levels; can perform Zero Counters and Air Blocking. Note: Press
for level 1 supers, for level 2, and for level 3.The features of V-ISM are: your character can only perform original combos (custom combos in "Street Fighter Alpha 2"), can Air Block and Zero Counter . Press
and together to do your short range attack. Dhalsim can perform this in V-ISM and Z-ISM.In arcade mode, your opponents will always be different, except for the boss and mid-boss. Unlike "Street Fighter Alpha 2", you must always fight your mid-boss. A special pre-fight or post-fight sequence may appear. An ending sequence will appear after the final boss. Note: The special versions of characters (Final Vega ,Extra M.Bison and Shin Gouki) have the same story line as their originals. The final boss is always Final Vega. Some characters have Juli/Juni or M.Bison as a boss, but they will have an extra stage against Final Vega.

The game will often award two levels instead of one whenever a perfect victory is achieved in world tour mode. Another way to gain two levels is to get super combo or original combo finishes. This will affect your Z, V, or X-ISM levels. You will have to get a master ranking on each ISM to get to level 32. The master ranking is level 6. You can try to finish with a good time (or with a perfect, super, or original combo finish).
The options screen contains a "Mode Select" option. Press
at the selection screen to choose a mode. This includes Normal (standard, select ISM, etc.), Saikyou (low guard meter, no change for the rest), Mazi (opponent does more damage, you do less; you must win two rounds, opponent only one in a two round match).When fighting as Vega/Balrog, he can lose his claw if he blocks too often This makes his attacks weaker and shortens his reach. He can also lose his mask after his claw is gone. If this happens, his defence will be weaker and he can get dizzy easier.
Press
with any button to use a short range attack. When fighting as Dhalsim, this can be done in any ISM except for X-ISM.Copyright © 2000 - 2025 Base Media. All Rights Reserved.
