Street Fighter II & Street Fighter II Championship Edition / Dash Japanese Packaging and Box Art Translations

 Street Fighter II (Super Famicom / SNES) (10.10.92)

Featuring striking artwork and a rousing description, Street Fighter II was one of the most remarkable arcade to console ports seen yet. Despite just a month's wait for the American version, hardcore gamers of the early 90s were eager to pay a premium and import it early.

To lose the prestige of a true Street Fighter...

My body has been trained to the limits, my spirit sharpened! In a fight where victory is all that matters...now, that flame has been lit!

Street Fighter II: Champion Edition (11.12.93)

An excellent port of SFII: CE. Unfortunately, it was a Japanese exclusive and didn't make it to North America where the PC Engine / TurboGrafx-16 was turning into an obscurity at the time.

In the name of fate, they continue fighting. Playing before your eyes, is either glory or defeat...

Street Fighter II (Game Boy) (9.11.95)

Street Fighter II is one of those games that was pretty much impossible to replicate on the Game Boy, but you just know they were going to try anyway. The forgotten port of Street Fighter Alpha on the Game Boy Color faired better.

A burning hot fight, at any time!
