North American & European release. Game developed in Japan. For more information about the game itself, please see the original Japanese release entry; "Street Fighter Zero 2 [Green Board]".
TECHNICAL Runs on the "CP System II" hardware. Blue Board [USA & Europe]
TRIVIA Street Fighter Alpha 2 was released in February 1996 in Europe and in March 1996 in the USA.
In these export releases: Nash is named Charlie. Vega is named M. Bison. Gouki is named Akuma. Shin Gouki is named Shin Akuma. Satsui no Hadou ni Mezameta Ryu is named Evil Ryu.
In the original Japanese version, specific locations are displayed on the 'next stage' screen. All export versions just tell you which country the stage is in. Perhaps someone at Capcom USA was too lazy to translate the location-specific text (which is in Japanese) and just used the country name (which is in English). Below are the place names that were left out of the non-Japanese versions, translated into English... (Character: Stage location) Ryu: Suzaku Castle, Japan (Sagat vs.) Ryu: a big prairie, Australia Ken: San Francisco Bay, USA Chun-Li: Beijing, China Sagat: Ayuthaya Temple Ruins, Thailand Adon: Bank of the Chao Phraya River, Thailand Birdie: London Station Underground, England Charlie ('Nash' in Japan): Detroit Highway, USA Guy: Metro City, USA Rose: Genova City Port, Italy Sodom: Arizona Desert, USA M. Bison ('Vega' in Japan): Atop the VTOL, Brazil (Charlie vs.) M. Bison: Guiana Highlands - Great Waterfalls, Venezuela Akuma ('Gouki' in Japan): Gokuentou, Japan Dan: Temple Street, Hong Kong Dhalsim: Bank of the Ganges River, India Zangief: Bilsk Steelworks, USSR Gen: Shanghai, China Rolento: New York, USA Sakura: Setagaya-ku, 2-Choume, Tokyo, Japan
