Super Street Fighter II hit the arcades in Japan and the US in September '93, followed by Europe in November '93. Then, the SNES and Mega Drive versions dropped in June '94 (Japan), July '94 (US), and August '94 (Europe).

Comparing the two, you've got these chunky sprites, a slick HUD, and backgrounds you can actually mess with. It's not like a quantum leap from the OG SFII games, but there's some definite improvement. Super Turbo steps it up with smoother animations and cooler artwork in the HUDs and post-match screens. Now, the Mega Drive's Super is a bit more blocky and low-res. The backgrounds are kinda meh, and you'll see those black borders at the top and bottom of the screen. Oh, and heads up, the SNES version plays it safe – Nintendo style – and ditches the blood from the post-match pics.

Sound-wise, they're both rocking iconic background tunes, satisfying sound effects, and decent voiceovers. The Mega Drive's Super takes a bit of a hit, especially in the background music department, but it hangs onto more voiceovers than the SNES version

For this #shorts we do a side-by-side comparison of both versions to contrast the graphic and sound differences. #snes #genesis #megadrive #streetfighter2 #superstreetfighter2 #ssf2 #bitsandbeats #60fps
