The old Street Fighter II Turbo game for SNES is back on GBA! it includes chalangers like Balrog, Blanka, Cammy, Chun-Li, Dee Jay, Dhalisim, E. Honda, Fei-Long, Guile, Ken, M. Bison, Ryu, Sagat, T. Hawk, Wega, and Zangief. Sagat, Balrog, and Ryu are my personal favorite and have done me well, but I recimend Using them all and see who you like the best. If you are a Street Fighter fan and you like this game buy Street Fighter Alpha 3 for GBA when it comes out in April 2002.

This is the best handheld fighting game I have ever played!This game has great graphics.This game has the characters from the old school streetfighter games played in our SNES and arcade days.I don't know about the Akuma glich that everyone is talking about since that I haven't fought him in Arcade Mode yet, but i did manage to defeat him in time attack mode.The buttons won't affect people's gameplay that much having to hold the A and B buttons down to puch or kick hard.But it's even harder to use the weak attacks since you have to tap the A and B buttons which I dont usually do.The gameplay of this game kicks butt, and you can pick the speed of the fighting like in the SNES version.The music is the only downside of this game is the music.So all the parts of this game deserve a 4.0 or better.I'd put music a 4.0, graphics a 4.5, fun factor a 5.0, and gameplay a 5.0.So ...

KAPOW!!!!

There is no denying how fun it is to play a good SF2 on a portable game system and this GBA version is truly enjoyable! That being said, us Nintendo fans are sorely missing out when you compare this game to the newer and far superior SF Alpha Max for PSP. What we need is a new updated version for the NDS with serious controller enhancements! Why the game limits your ability to customize the controller is baffling to me. And the sound is a little dreadfull as well. Thankfully the graphics are surprisingly well done and the animation is good as well. Overall I would give the game a 3.5 on graphics and content. I love the redone anime style character screens and placeholders and if you can get used to the forced control schemes that limit you to only 4 button, then game plays quite well...But the burning question is if PSP can deliver a perfect translation of Darkstalkers or SF Alpha, then where is the love from Capcom and Nntendo? Where is the new SF release for the more robust, powerful, and capable DS? And how bout some nice innovative enhancements that utilize the DS second screen such as character bios or match/rank info while in battle...Let's get creative and revitalize SF for the DS generation! Until then...if you can find this game it is a worthy pickup to satisfy the SF gamers on the go like myself!

Classic revamted

If it were just like the original I would still love it. Same game with enhanced graphics and sound.

Could have been a lot better.

This game is a gba port of Street Fighter II, so i'll only note differences between it and the original game. This game is slow as s-word, turbo 3 is the fastest it goes and it's seriously world warrior speed. if you put it on turbo 1 or God forbid NORMAL speed you're in for a fight in slow motion. You can unlock Akuma and Shin Akuma which is cool but the thrill of that fades. Overall worth getting but only because it's portable.

Really fun... but for a limited time.

This game is really fun for someone like me who hasn't played Street Fighter II since it came out on SNES (and I'm not even talking about the Turbo version). The graphics are nice and the gameplay is fun. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 for the following reasons:

1 - Once you get the hang of your favorite character and you play through the game a time or two, it'll be fun to beat the crap out of people for awhile but the game will certainly start getting old... especially after you unlock the Akuma dressed in blue and you can absolutely pummel the crap out of everyone.

2 - I went from playing the game on the default difficulty the first time through up to level 8 on the next. Call me crazy, but there wasn't much of a noticable difference in difficulty to me outside of a few characters: Blanka, Guile, and Vega.

3 - This game has some MAJOR glitches that really take away from the experience for me. First, unless I'm missing something like a combination of buttons you have to press, there's no way to reset your progress. In other words, once you unlock characters and get so far with your scores and best times with all the other challenges, you're stuck with those... but that's not the end of the glitches! Many of the numbers for your best times show up all jumbled, the button menu no longer works (just freezes the game), and sometimes, when I beat M. Bison, the game either glitches to a jumbled screen and freezes or glitches to a screen with a silhouette of Akira's big noggin and - you guessed it - freezes.

So... if I want to start this game over from scratch, it looks like I'm going to have to buy it (new, since other used ones will be somewhere in the same state, I guess) again. Outside of the things mentioned above, I still love playing this game from time to time. I've had it for well over a year now. Overall, it's a great game but easy to master and glitchy after a certain point.
