Checking modes, options, & secrets in Super Street Fighter II X for Matching Service: Grand Master Challenge for Dreamcast, dumped & run in Flycast for tasty 1 frame input delay.
SSF2X is the Japanese name for Super Street Fighter II Turbo.

Auto Save (last yes/no toggle in OPTION - GAME; On is the two-character setting) seems to work but is highly disconcerting as it never gives any indication that it is saving. Don't think I've ever played another DC game that didn't always tell you on the game screen when it was saving. Ah! I can work around this w/ Flycast's "Video - Show VMU In-game" option, sweet.
Used Kao_Megura's guide ( https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/dreamcast/458569-super-street-fighter-ii-x-for-matching-service/faqs/13811 ). But the Cheats page ( https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/dreamcast/458569-super-street-fighter-ii-x-for-matching-service/cheats ) had a clearer explanation of button inputs to pick Gouki (HOLD Start, THEN hit other buttons), & correctly named the dips for enabling Ten Gouki (Ten Akuma) (3rd row, 8th & 9th switches); FAQ gets that wrong in 1 of 2 spots.
VERSUS doesn't show on the main menu until there's a 2nd controller (which in Flycast means having a DC controller type set for that port (ie Device B: ASCII Stick)). (My capture didn't capture Flycast's menu captions, so you can't really see what I'm setting in the emulator.)
(1P v 2P challenge matches if for instance 1P presses Start while 2P plays Arcade are 1-off, don't get VS-mode-specific dip settings (COM can't fill in for 2P, etc), & go back to Arcade after (it's an old way to bypass a tough Arcade fight, although apparently not when "Survival" is enabled in dips).)
VERSUS w/ 2P as COM (in EX OPTION menu: highlight OPTION, hold HP, press START) varies in difficulty per opponent: Ken whiffs uppercuts & is often easy to beat, but T.Hawk still murdered me. Finally SF2 VS CPU mode!! (They say SF Collection 2 on PS1 has it but you have to 1cc to unlock. : p)
SECRET OPTION (beat game w/ all chars & Super chars--or DL save from GameFAQs like I did--then highlight OPTION on main menu, hold MP (maybe for a few seconds 1st), press START) AUTO SETTING:
"1993/10/05 ver":
SSF2, I think. Still have to use codes to select Super versions of the characters, & set Turbo 1 in the OPTION-GAME menu (Turbo O here is an extra-slow one w/ "all the frames," apparently)--& CPU always plays as ST/SX.
"1994/02/23 ver":
Super Turbo / Super X settings, I think.
"1994/05/29 ver":
Tweak of ST/SX adding charge option to two Chun & Honda specials. Huh.
"2000/12/22 ver":
Default settings for this Dreamcast version--lots of probably fix/balance tweaks to specific moves & other tiny fixes.
"????/??/?? ver":
??? Lots of unknown settings, & swapping specific move HP/MP SFX or Arcade point values. ???
I'm using the ST/SX preset, then enabling Shin Gouki & Ten Gouki (3-8, 3-9), & English game text (3-11), fixing characters freezing if they try a SC in attract mode (4-1), letting you skip the "pause on 4 chars" part of picking Gouki (4-2), & enabling SX colors for the character display in the 1cc ending I'll never reach (1-5).
"Survival" Arcade mode (dip 2-15) throws the 4 Kings in randomly w/ the other chars: I got Claw in match 2. No continues.
Slowdown off (dip 2-10) used to interest me but I'll original speed now.
Difficulty 8/8 feels at least as hard as 4/8 US ST.
I couldn't get CPU to play Ten Gouki in VERSUS--Ten Gouki select resulted in CPU Shin Gouki (no super).
"Ten" is the symbol that appears after his "Raging Demon" Super Combo (SC) KOs, says https://streetfighter.fandom.com/wiki/Ten_Akuma#Trivia .
Gouki: 3P+Start (3P+K for blue?)
Shin Gouki: dip 3-9, Hold Start, 3K (3K+P for blue?)
Ten Gouki: dips 3-8 & 3-9, Hold Start, 2M+2H (MP+HP+3K for blue?)
