Super Street Fighter II

Post by ob1 » Tue Feb 03, 2009 2:23 pm

Hey you all.
I finally bought a cheap version of Super Street Fighter II (SSF2) : 5€. I cas quite happy with it since every other cart I saw on eBay were muche more expensive : 25-50€.
So, me happy ?
Well quite but ...
I mean, I'm happy I haven't paid any more expensive for this. Basically, it's mere a Street Fighter II' Champion Edition (SF2CE) with 4 extra characters. With horrible sound. I mean, back there, sound was mean, but graphics save the thing. But sound was mean. By today standards, sounds are horrible, let's face it. But moreover, SSF2 is SF2CE ... without turbo. I say it once more : without turbo.
It's slow.
Terribly slow.
It's still fluid, you don't get any choppiness, but it's slow. Indeed.
That remind me some things we say in this topic : http://www.spritesmind.net/_GenDev/foru ... c.php?t=95
Is this game doing some kind of 30 fps ?
I thought I had forgotten how the 16bitters were slow, so, I put a Sonic cartridge in my beloved Genesis and ... OMG. Now this is fast !
So yeas, SSF2 is slow, and may not reach 60 fps.
Basically, just what sega-16 already said.

... Yes, I know. I turned 32 and still playing with a 15-years old game.

Hey, first of all, happy birthday!!(since you turned 32). I am not sure whether you are referring to SSF2 or SFCE, but both games don't do something like 30 FPS.

I have a SF2CE cart and I remember that it played fine. I didn't notice any slowness with it. Then again, since my MD busted up, I haven't played it for a long time.
