Is it still worth playing?
Capcom's 1992 arcade fighting game, an update of Street Fighter II: Champion Edition sold as an upgrade kit for its circuit boards, and also known as Hyper Fighting. Gameplay is faster, so special moves and combos need more precise timing. Several characters gained moves: Ryu and Ken can do the Hurricane Kick in the air, E. Honda has the Super Body Slam, Blanka a vertical rolling attack, Chun-Li the Kikoken projectile and an aerial Spinning Bird Kick, Zangief the Turbo Clothesline, and Dhalsim the Yoga Teleport. Every fighter has a new default palette. The Super NES version restored the barrel bonus stage, included Champion Edition as a Normal mode, and has adjustable speed, with four settings by default. The speed setting still lets you choose the pace you want to play at, and a faster game with more special moves makes each match about timing.
