FAQ
- This is basically Super Street Fighter II Turbo, right?
Not quite. This game is missing a couple of features from Super Turbo that expert players might be looking for. There are no "Old" characters, speed is locked to Turbo1, and there have been some balance changes made. They have also added throw techs in lieu of throw softening.
- Balance changes? What has changed?

- Damage and stun values have been adjusted.
- What does Gallery Mode have in it?
Gallery mode is filled with images from Street Fighter II artbooks. Some of them have been brought over from Udon publishing, but some of them have not.
- Will this be coming out on *insert system here*?
Nobody knows yet. For the time being, this is a Switch exclusive.
- How is the netcode?
All reports that have come in say that the netcode is great.
- $40 for this..?
Some people won't mind spending $40 for some nostalgia, but for the competitive player, this won't really have legs.
