This game was released publicly in Japan. Here in the states, if you wanted to get the game, you had to rent it from the recently disestablished Blockbuster Video.
Man, I remember renting this game from Blockbuster while staying at my Grandma's in the summer of 1994. For some reason I was under the false impression that this would be a "fixed" version of Final Fight. In other words, not only would it have Guy, but it would have Cody and Haggar, 2 player mode and the missing level. I was a bit disappointed. Still a ton of fun to play though.
i don't understand why they didn't put them together and made an another version.. it's so funny guy saying "cody is still in japan!! i must save jessica!!"
tantrumania I guess Guy got jealous of Cody and decided “Hey Capcom! Replace me over him!”, after he wasn’t featured in the SNES version of Final Fight.
Kind of wondering why half the sound effects are missing... sounds like someone recorded in surround audio, but then when it got upped to RU-vid, those channels simply got cut.
They were in the Japanese version(s) of Final Fight on Super Nintendo, but yeah. That along their still being no blood effects in both N.T.S.C. editions on the S.N.E.S., or even in the vastly superior Sega CD port for that matter also. Billy and Sid were even in the Game Boy Advance conversion of F.F., (with still no blood) which was a bit of a surprise by that time too.
I could understand the original Final Fight having things cut due to it being an early SNES release and the programmers didn't know the system yet (as evidenced by the sequels). But yes, this was a lazy port as it came out later than the original version of the same game.
It wasn't an exact copy. It had the code tidied up a bit so there was less slowdown and a few tiny animation fixes, and some of the backgrounds have their layers and animations present now. Not nearly enough to warrant a full new game though. If they had included the Industrial Zone or the Two player mode then it'd be a decent buy.
is something off about the sound? i love how they replaced poison with some random skinny dude in the home release. was she too provocative? or is it wrong to beat up hot ladies.
It's due to a silly footnote that got blown way out of proportion and now Capcom is milking it. Poison and Roxy were originally intended to be women (Roxy remained that way) but Capcom Japan feared a backlash and legal action so they mentioned in the arcade concept art that poison is a 'newhalf' which means transgender (Could also mean mixed ancestry). It was all just a saftey net in case they got heat for beating up women as no arcade goers would have had access to that concept art in 1989 there was no indication while playing the game that Poison was trans or anything else. In other words she was always meant to be a woman. Due to the controversy regarding the US releases of Final Fight which was heavily censored they considered making both Poison AND Roxy transvestites but ended up just making them guys. Even Final Fight designer Akira Nishitana said they were always girls but they just put it in the notes that Poison was trans just in case.
@mitzibishi Poison and Roxy were replaced because capcom didn't want a feminist group sueing them and rolento wasn't added for unknown reason thus altering the storyline and G.Andore was also scrapped for unknow reasons
Final Fighters guy era mi favorito por qué es increíble asombroso y además sabe artes marciales además por qué se parece a Gokú pero lo principal es de qué es cool.
+jgfjgfify Or better yet, get Capcom Classics Collection Volume 1 on either PS2 or X-Box and play the emulated version there. Never was too high on the SCD version as the music was remixed, and the terrible voice acting added a layer of cheese the game didn't need.
One of the few poor decisions made by Capcom at that time. Final Fight Guy was released two full years after the first one and by that time they could have easily incorporated a two player mode and swapped out Bay Area for the Industrial Area therefore giving us a truly complimentary game to the first one. Instead we got just Guy, a few folk standing at the bar in Westside who weren't there before and a couple of new power ups which weren't in the arcade game. I feel that Capcom thought if they put too many enhancements in the new game then people might not buy both. Sheer greed and a poor show from Capcom mind you they way they milked the poor Street Fighter II series to death with all the new versions I'm actually not that surprised.
It was never released in the US except for Blockbuster rental exclusive so I don't know what the fuck you're bitching about lol no less you're complaining about it how many goddamn years later lol fucking hilarious!
@@trappedintime8273 What makes you automatically assume that the OP is from the US? Also, have you never heard of grey imports? You're a walking American stereotype mate! Arrogant, stupid, and you know fuck all about the world outside your own country.
No they didn't want you to pay full price because it was never released in the United States except for a rental only exclusive at Blockbuster you dumb son of a bitch
Disappointed just like the other one. Still no two player co-op, missing the best level and boss, couldn't keep Cody too. Sega probably would've made a better port, too bad Capcom was exclusive to SNES at the time
Not so. Look at the specs for a SNES and then look at the specs for a CPS-1 arcade board. The SNES is dwarfed in terms of sheer power. The port could have been better, no one is disagreeing with that, but it was never going to be exactly the same with the reduced resolution and inferior sound capabilities not to mention the incredibly slow SNES CPU which even the older Megadrive outdid in terms of speed.
@@Syklonus This - I always laugh at fanboys who don't seem to have to learned anything about tech since their childhood arguments on the playground. The SNES/Genesis were no match for $1000+ arcade hardware with much better sprite manipulation hardware. That you would expect your $100-$150 (90's dollars) console to ever really complete with an arcade board is lunacy.
Poison is the original character that got replaced with Sid. Roxy got replaced with the other character with the mohawk, Billy. The Japanese version replaced no one.
Why does all the music on most SNES games sound like meowing robotic cats that the batteries are dying on, or a bad 80's/90's pórn movie? Such an overrated sound chip imo. 😂
