===== OLD/SSFII RYU DIFFERENCES =====

As this is the old SSFII version of him, it means that he does not have the Super Combo gauge, which of course means that he does not have the Super Fireball.

Regarding Normals, he doesn't have the Overhead Punch and Charging Punch command normals. He also doesn't have the jumping forwards/backwards air uppercut, which means that he loses those juggling abilities as a result.

===== RYU STORY IN STREET FIGHTER II =====

A student of Shotokan Karate, he has developed into a pure warrior. He has devoted his entire life to the perfection of his fighting skills and has forsaken everything else in his life. Ryu has no home, no friends and no family. Instead, he wanders the globe seeking to test his skills against other fighters.
