My guess is that this was a feature that was intended to be in the game but they didn't have time to complete it. The elaborate code to access it was likely just so that they could test it and then like many cheat/debug codes they just didn't remove it from the final game as they figured no one would find it. To be fair, they were mostly right; 25 years after the fact it wasn't discovered just by experimentation or anything. It literally had to be reverse-engineered to be discovered.

The SNES version of Shin Akuma has the frame data changed to crouching weak kick and standing medium punch. They can combo into each other after hit confirm fairly easily. Something that the Arcade version doesn't have. His teleport recovers a few frames faster but is still vulnerable due to the games slow speed of rendering shadows on teleporting.

SFA2 on the SNES was super compressed and what seems to have slowed it down of all things was the music, MSU-1 hacks have actually made it play without the pausing at the start of matches on actual hardware.

@@hereyougo3075 Cartridge based consoles don't suffer performance degradation like that. They will run at 100% of the speed they did when new until the day the chips rot. The main problem with old consoles is the electrolytic capacitors bursting which leads to them just not firing up, or becoming very unstable or the audio not working. Provided you clean them up before the goo eats through the board they'll go back to 100%. Until the CPU dies. And that unfortunately happens to the SNES more than other consoles. On PC the perceived performance loss comes from updates to the OS/drivers. As more and more updates that fix bugs get piled on file sizes bloat, more stuff needs loading, formerly small drivers become big drivers taking more RAM and even your mechanical HD or SSD can suffer performance drops as they reach the end of their lifespan. The SNES can't be updated and there are no moving parts related to the game to slowly wear out so performance doesn't change.

This is actually suuuuuuuuper old news, back in the day when blockbuster video was around they’d sell little guide books for different platforms and one of them had a special code for the Saturn version of Street Fighter Alpha 2 and gold that would unlock this character. He was SoooOOOooooOOoooO severely broken that when me and my nephews would play I literally never lost because of his faster double air fireballs and just overall faster than the reg Akuma. We loved it!!!!

I get the feeling that the reason the unlock method was so obscure was because they tried to add him, but found it unfeasible, but just left him in as is. The Snes was not ready for SFA2 indeed.

@complexacious

Those pauses come from reloading the sound sample memory. They used high(er) quality samples for the Round X and KO messages so they have to turf them out of RAM and reload the sound effects for the match. But their sound handling code is not well written so they just do the most basic freeze of the game while they transfer the new samples the least clever way possible. Much of this port seems more "lazy" than "achievement" in this way. Well, this discovery comes from the work of someone trying to fix the game so we'll find out for sure when he's done.

Hey Max, Professor Beef here from Era. I actually found Shin Akuma back in the day in the late 90s, by accident. I had written in to Nintendo after fighting him and wondered if it was possible to play him! They had written back and confirmed that Shin Akuma was available to fight against, but they (for likely obvious reasons) didn't know it was possible to actually play as him, and therefore told me that there was no way. Clearly the game play counselor wasn't aware of this modding method (not that I blame them), but this is very cool to see!

My dad got this version of SFA2 on Wii U Virtual Console, and I never quite really understood it. Now that I'm a tad older, I learned about how to play a "conventional" fighting game. (i.e. not Smash) I had no idea other versions of the game existed until a couple days ago. Wild.

Actually owned and played the hell out of this version because I didn't get a PSX until much later on and was playing the SNES version of the SF2 series from when they released. The jank is obvious now but if you don't know any better, it's actually a pretty solid and playable version of the game. Even now it's impressive that they even were able to get a working and very playable version of SFA2 on the SNES considering that it was a struggle to get the Alpha games running on the PSX.

I searched for years for the game back when it came out. But could never find it locally. Only options were to import it and it was going to be something like 3x the cost. Just couldn't manage it back in the day. I am glad I have so many other ways to play Alpha 2 now.
