Free Play Friday - Hyper Street Fighter 2

Starting something new - Free Play Friday. Where I find an arcade game I'm interested in and play thru it. Today we have, Hyper Street Fighter 2 Street Fighter, is a world-wide IP that had an atomic boom when Street Fighter 2 hit arcades in 1991. Street fighter originally came out in 1987, and was considered by most to be an awful game which high difficulty. But at the core of it, was a game that was high damage high reward and once you unlock the secret of how to perform special moves, it opened the game up a bit that makes it more palatable. We may play that on the channel just because. But when Street Fighter 2 came out, the whole world was trying to stay on the game as soon as possible, which lead to many knockoffs, and copy-cats. To answer back, Capcom updated the game with Champion edition, which allowed for the Boss characters to be playable and mirror matches. Turbo, which added speed and more moves to most of the cast. Super Street fighter 2, which added 4 characters, various color palettes but reduced the speed. Then Super turbo, a game that is still played today - added the speed back, added more moves and a super meter for whole playable cast. They added a mysterious character Akuma or Gouki in Japan, his intent was unknown at the time and seemed like a rumor on how to fight him. Spoiler: it was getting to the final fight with M. Bison (dictator) without continuing. At the 15th year anniversary of street fighter, capcom put out a variant of super Turbo, called Hyper Street Fighter 2. Which allowed you to play the variations of the playable characters, which some limitations (you couldn't play the SF 2 variants of boss characters) and you can see which version of your character was the best! This game had various amounts of success and ports. Playstation 2 had the Street fighter anniversary collection, this game was paired up with Street Fighter 3: Third Strike. Game is also playable online via modern hardware either on pc, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, or Playstation 4 via the Capcom Fighting Collection. Hyper Street Fighter 2 is on permanent display to represent Street fighter as a whole at the Museum of Modern Art!
