Street Fighter II Turbo (Sega Genesis vs SNES) Side by Side Comparison

Street Fighter II Turbo: Hyper Fighting Comparison - Sega Genesis/ Mega Drive vs Super Nintendo/ Snes (Super Famicom)

[@UttRConcrete]

The sega version wasn’t censored and had the missing characters from guile’s stage, the snes sounded better and had better colors.

[@ouwat4life]

The speech is more clear on the snes because capcom messed up the sound on the genesis but as for the sounds when landing a punch or a kick the sound is better on the genesis

@@DontKnowDontCare6.9 Not really, real players were in the arcades from 91. We all know the MD version is superior in the gameplay department, and that's what counts most. Negligibly better colours on Snes and cleaner but shortened samples, doesn't really matter.

[@risefm001]

Both were great ports IMO. I played more on the SNES than the Genesis as I had an arcade stick for the SNES which really helped in cutting my teeth to play in the arcades. Felt like at home with SNES and that old stick was where I practiced so I could go to the Arcades and not have my lunch money taken.

[@greensun1334]

There is a new SNES arcade stick aviable, since one or two years, with mirco switched buttons and stick, the best home arcade stick ever. But I've forgotten his name 😅 you will find it if you search. Maybe I buy one or two!

It's interesting to see the subtle tricks the developers used on the Genesis. The character sprites are just a tad smaller and the stage sizes are reduced but I never would have noticed if I didn't see the non-compressed version side by side.

@AntonelloartieriRohaldos I've ripped the sprites from both games to see the differences. They are using the same 8x8 pixel tiles sets for both games. Graphically the Mega drives backgrounds use less colours but all the tiles are the same.

GENESIS: ótima jogabilidade, abertura, cenários um pouco mais detalhados, trilha sonora próxima à do Arcade, assim como as vozes, que mesmo sendo "roucas", são mais fiéis às vozes da versão Arcade, algo que quase ninguém comenta...

Yesterday, I played the arcade SF2 - Hyper Fighting (not CE because I want to do hurricane kicks in air!) and both 16bit versions, all with the same controller and button layout. The 16bit versions have even better gameplay than the arcade original, much smoother and faster. Beside of that, they are quite indentical to play. The main difference is the sound and graphics (both better on SNES) and you can do more crouch LP/LK attacks in a row in the Genesis version (but that's just a small detail, you don't win with this tactic), also the stun times are a little different timed. Both are worthy ports of a timeless classic. 10/10 for both ports.

[@D3Vlicious]

That's because the Genesis version had the CPS1 chains for lights from the arcade version.

[@greensun1334]

Clouds move in blanka stage on the snes

[@happyspaceinvader508]

Considering the massive graphical advantage the SNES has in terms of colour, it;'s staggering to see how little difference there is. There are even a couple of areas where I think the Megadrive actually looks better (e.g the wooden floor on Blanka's stage). The samples sound cleaner in the SNES version, but I personally prefer the Megadrive's FM synth music. The Megadrive's CPU was more than twice the speed of the SNES's, which is perhaps why they were able to put more a bit more detail in some of the backgrounds.

[@brugges]

"The Megadrive's CPU was more than twice the speed of the SNES's, which is perhaps why they were able to put more a bit more detail in some of the backgrounds." Yeah that's why the clouds doesn't move in Blanka's stage and one lantern is missing in Honda's stage on megadrive.

[@happyspaceinvader508]

Rocknlive Well, ok.. there is that. And the missing elephants on Dhalsim’s stage.

[@greensun1334]

If you're looking close, there are overall less parallax scroll layers in the Sega version. That building in Ryu's background is also an independent moving scroll layer on SNES and on Genesis it's just drawn on the 2. layer. I want to mention it because nobody did it.

[@Atariatari-ky9te]

I have been playing Street Fighter 2 for the Mega Drive, SNES & PC Engine all last weekend and this week. I have changed my mind lol Here's my final take the Mega Drive port is the best and I do like the SNES version now better than the PC Engine version. The Mega Drive version has the clearest RGB image and has a bit more fluid gameplay than the SNES and PC Engine version. As a whole Music wise the Mega Drive is the best. Speech wise the PC Engine is the best. As far as stages Dhalsim - Mega Drive looks better and has a more arcade presence. RYU - Mega Drive has the moon and is more detailed. Ehonda - SNES looks better and has both of the Orange objects hanging on both sides. 1st special - Mega Drive more detailed. Blanka - Mega Drive the music is better and it has more of an arcade presence. Snes is 2nd though with the cloud moving in the background and the music is good. Brick special - A tie for the Mega Drive and SNES. (its not in the PC Engine version) Guile - Mega Drive has more people and its more detailed. The music is good too. SNES no.2 it has better music than the PC Engine and looks better than the PC Engine. Ken - Even though the PC Engine version has nothing going on in the background as far as the boat and flag. It still looks the best. SNES no. 2 as it looks good not as good as the PC Engine but better than the Mega Drive. Chun Li - A tie. The Snes and PC Engine version looks better than the Mega Drive but you have to be impressed with all that is going on on the Mega Drive version with the people on the bikes coming out more and the MD version looks good too just not as good as the other 2. Zangief - The Mega Drive looks the best. Its more detailed and has the signs on the fence. SNES no2 as it does have the fence (doesn't look as good as MD). PC Engine no3 (no fence at all). Balrog - SNES looks the best. Vega - All versions looks good but the SNES has the words moving. So SNES no1. Sagat - SNES looks the best and the music is better on this stage than the MD and PC Engine. M.Bison - PC Engine looks good and I like the music on the PC Engine version here than the MD and SNES versions. Im a SF2 nut lol NO.1 - Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition Plus (Special Champion Edition) - Mega Drive NO.2 - Street Fighter 2 Turbo - Super Famicom NO.3 - Street Fighter 2 Champion Edition - PC Engine (used to be my favorite)

[@Lauren_Tyler]

Aside from some slight color shading differences, the two versions look pretty identical. Of course, the sound quality is different between the two consoles.

[@comnexomidiadigital2129]

O fundo do cenário do Guile quase que parece que chão e céu são uma coisa só, de tão pouco detalhe! Se não fosse um pedacinho de um hangar que aparece no canto esquerdo, a gente podia jurar que só botaram um fundo degradê no cenário!

[@axelfoley20]

Genesis version appears to have better resolution and it does look more like the arcade. I thought it played excellent with the very nice 6 button controller. The snes controller was excellent too but for this game I would have preferred to have all buttons on the face of the controller. Snes wins in sound and music department but overall I enjoyed the genesis version as much if not more than the snes version. One pet peeve about the genesis version was the sound effects and voices, mostly the voices. They used some technique, probably a form of compression that made the samples very rough sounding. Overall a great port considering the age of the genesis hardware.

[@greensun1334]

The Same resolution mode (256x224) is used by both consoles in the Streetfighter games. Maybe it tricks our eyes because the Genesis has less colors to offer and because of that the graphics look sharper (color dithering); and on the SNES it looks smoother (color grading).

[@NOTHlNG]

They're very close! SNES sounds better but apart from that, I'm with the Genesis.

[@Syklonus]

I don't think they are close. The Megadrive port is very good, but there's noticeably less colours, less animation, and the sound sample are horrendously distorted.

[@kamranki]

@@Syklonus I do think that both versions feature identical animation frames. I once made sprites sheet for Ryu from both versions and all of the frame counts were exactly identical.

I own that and the Xbox Arcade ports so if I want something like an SNES controller port, I can just play the Xbox version.

[@itchyisvegeta]

Too close to call. Comes down to what system and controller a person likes and more personal preference. Did my own comparison last week. Still amazed how well the Genesis version is considering how the SNES specs are better, and I liked the SNES version more as a youth.

Oh the 90s... The time when the same Street Fighter game was rereleased almost like every year

[@autodidacticprofessor869]

As an arcade junkie, I thought the MD/Genesis and SNES were both woefully underpowered to port arcade games properly. The Genesis with its limited color palette and lack of proper PCM sound and the SNES's laughably slow CPU really hampered games like this. The letterboxing of the games was a bummer too. SNK did it right by using identical specs and direct portability from arcade to home, but due to the cost of chips in those days, the price was way out of reach. Luckily I had some rich friends that let me come over and play their NeoGeo. :)

SNES version is closer to the arcade version in terms of the size and colours of the characters, and the font type and colour of text used, so largely cosmetic differences that dont affect the overall game play. Otherwise gameplay is pretty much the same.

[@dvergara]

Better in genesis: intro, musics, game speed Better in snes: voices, stages, color pallete. Genesis got this because of the 6 button controler, wich makes gameplay better. Very close call, and this one detail makes the difference. If wasn't for that, I'll call it a tie.

[@somebody2978]

01:02 E. Honda stage: SNES version have a additional japanese lamp (left) in stage. But Arcade version only have one to right (like Genesis). So, Genesis look more faithful to Arcade. SNES look more decorated that original. 03:45 Guile stage: a couple and more details are missed in SNES version. 06:27 Ryu stage: the moon is missed in SNES version.

color/graphics shouldn't play a factor in any Genesis vs SNES game competition. Genesis came out in 1988 (JP) vs SNES 1990 (JP) = 2 god damn years in advance (BIG TIME DIFFERENCE IN TECH YAAAA'LL), its gameplay at end of the day. GENESIS DOES WHAT NINTENDON'T! Nintendo sat on the gravy train NES monopoly as long as they could and then pushed out SNES when they saw the writing on the wall that Sega Genesis was going to crush them. If you look closely at DEM GAMES archive, Genesis was giving SNES a beating up to 1993, then SEGA stopped focusing on DEM GAMES and shifted priority to try to get out front with the next updated gimmick system. For a kid in 90s, Sega was cool and had better library of games, SNES felt like a first party sequel to NES games system. MANY KIDS felt this way and parents - I just got Super Mario Bros 3, and now you want me to buy a SNES? WTF you dope Nintendo, You did me wrong ya'll. Then Sega did that shit with 32x and Sega Cd and Saturn and that's history. Yo dawg yippity kai yeah MF. I FEEL Genesis won more battles, but SNES won the war in the end by 1994 with Donkey Kong Country proving just focus on great Games and not gimmick hardware, but for the 90s war Sony destroyed both out of their misery. And now with Sega out of the way, Nintendo replaced Sega as the next gimmick console company as it can't compete against Sony on DEM GAMES!!! A true story remastered by P.D.

[@dougdfa]

the game is definitely better on SNES, but that doesn't mean the game is bad on the MEGA DRIVE. Playing currently you can see that the differences are minimal. The gameplay is better on the MD, but the sounds, music, colors and effects are much better on the SNES and more like the arcade version. We can perceive the different impacts sounds between weak, medium and strong blows, in addition to the difference between the sounds of kicks and punches. The care at this point was superior on the SNES, perhaps because the capabilities between the two consoles were different. Anyway, I have both versions and I like them both.

[@AJGaS]

I feel like I'm one of the only people who think that they're remarkably similar - especially if you consider comparisons between MK3 SNES and MK3 Genesis in terms of audio and visuals, where the SNES beats the ever lasting snot out of the poor genesis (except where AI is concerned - AI is so broken in the SNES port that it isn't worth playing at all).

Sega genesis character voice is better, and background depth from screen is closest to arcade version and few things on snes vesion is missing on backgrounds...but on sega too...other thing is not on a par with arcade in sega version are scrolling skies of some stage and music quality and resolution if it matters...overall I prefer genesis version and controller

[@DoomKid]

They're damn near identical, but the sound is just so much better on SNES... You can tell the colors are slightly better on SNES on Guile's stage for example, but the difference is so minor that it doesn't matter. That music and sound on SNES though!

[@iulianispas8634]

E.Honda theme on Genesis is my favorite of all ports

[@48hourrecordsteam45]

No one sees the snes version is blurry in many places and less detailed in a lot of areas...floor detail ,background characters detail..some of the background on snes skips out detail all together ...

[@YURIMAKERSTUDIOS]

Olha, unica coisa que eu vejo de pouco melhor em temos gráficos no Snes, são as cores, são pouquinho melhor apenas comparado, pq Snes consegue subir uns 10 cores a mais, dependendo da situação gráfica dos jogos, tudo ok aí. Mas quesito jogabilidade, pixel, frame rate, a versão de mega é o cara, fim de papo. Alias, tem um patch do Pyro que melhora muitas as cores, e outro patch que melhora o audio, tornando a versão 16 bits de Street definitivo para o Genesis.

[@ricardonunes838]

sim concordo, essa versão refeita com as cores e sons melhoradas deixaram a versão do snes pra trás, mas a comparação é com os jogos da época, e sinto muito mas o som do mega tornava o jogo irritante, mas era bom mesmo assim, mas a versão do snes era um colírio para os olhos e para os ouvidos, era o primo rico, não tem jeito, gosto do mega mas ele é inferior!!

[@sandroribeiro9491]

Snes version turbo is the best ever street fighter 2 on the consoles.

[@jlnalonso]

You say so because you didn't play SF2SCE on Genesis. By far the best SF2 port to a 16 bit console.

[@gentarofourze]

@@inceptional You do realise that later Sega models came with 6 button as standard right? It only looks "nicer" in terms of colours which are fixed in fan mods just like the sound is too. The Sega version plays better though both are good.

[@ryandiggs750]

I agree about the SNES version and it plays better than Sega too

[@admazorca]

Bom dia teria como fazer a comparação do jogo Hook de snes vs mega?

[@demonology2629]

With a better presentation and extra animations and with all the important sounds being there and decent graphics that are good enough, the winner goes to SEGA GENESIS

[@chonglee323]

Sega Genesis has an extra girl in Guile's background and moon in Ryu's stage. SNES has better sound. Sega has better controls by default. Sega wins imo.

[@totalprocall6894]

Look at the clouds in the blanka stage...md>no animation but snes>animated. The snes had a vastly superior color palette, better sound, newer revision of the game etc etc.

[@comnexomidiadigital2129]

The Genesis controls by default are a ridiculous 3 buttons gamepad, son. Please, Don't you watch the video??

[@alubaldini]

blanca stages ,, snes version cloud are moving , genesis not

[@kayus83]

Totally Agree. The 6-button controller was perfect for Street Fighter 2. Most people ignore that Nintendos Super Nintendo came after Sega Genesis, so its clear that technically were superior. Therefore Sega wins because the overall difference considering character models, sprites and gameplay weren´t significant. Sound is pure taste - Snes sound is more clear, Genesis metallic which is cooler f.e. when Ryu shouts " Shoooryuken ".

[@Nobunaga1983]

Ricardo Jaye yea the snes controller was awful for this game

[@totalprocall6894]

SNES clearly wins with better pallette, better sound, more scrolling in certain stages(blanka level clouds in baackground), and better balance based on newer game. One part i found MD had something over the SNES was on guiles stage with an extra couple of npc's in the background(lady stroking her boyfriends erm...yea anyway!).

[@michaelzoran]

Sound is significantly better on the Genesis, which is no surprise due to the fact that Genesis outputs 10 sound channel while Super Nintendo only outputs 8 sound channels. The Genesis version also displays quite a bit more pixels - it is not as "letterboxed" as the Super Nintendo version. This is is also not a surprise, because the Genesis CPU is twice as fast as the Super Nintendo CPU and the Genesis cartridge is 40MB in size, while the Super Nintendo version is 32MB in size. The graphics show the Genesis version has a "sharper" look, while the SNES version has a "smoother" (i.e., less sharp) look. During that generation of gaming, it may have actually been better to have lower resolution. George Lucas actually always turned the Sharpness of his TV sets to their minimum setting during that generation. The winner is the Genesis version. The Genesis version also plays better. The 6-button Genesis controller also had an amazing 8-way d-pad. Genesis wins.

[@yanceyboyz]

Michael Zoran Are you deaf? The sound on genesis is awful. The speech is so broken on genesis. Don’t get me wrong I love the genesis sound chip but the SNES nailed the sound.

[@Bullet122]

@Somewhere Sunday bro I am legit laughing my ass off reading these comments from Sega fans. They actually think the sega version has better graphics and sound.

[@michaelzoran]

The sound processor used in the Sega Genesis has 10 sound channels. The sound processor used in the Super Nintendo has 8 sound channels. There was no doubt this gave programmers greater resources to create superior sound in the Genesis version. There is no doubt, the Genesis version is technically more advanced in terms of sound. But, music is an "opinion," so someone might "personally" prefer an 8-bit version that sounds like Super Mario Bros. Nevertheless, the Genesis version did have superior sound hardware for music. The SNES version actually had an advantage for voices because one of the eight sound channels in the Super Nintendo included some special features for "voice" types of sound.

[@booshter9714]

The Snes is definitely the superior version but only by a margin.

[@darioxe10]

La versión de Génesis tenía 24 megas, y la SNes 20. El sonido se nota mucho mejor en SNes

[@MatthewCox-fd3cf]

Special Champion Edition is the Turbo game for the Sega Genesis.

[@valeskanascimento4455]

mas o de Mega Drive não é o Street Fighter 2 Turbo o ST2Turbo do Mega Drive em termos de som é bem diferente.

[@mrmacross]

The contrast on the Genesis version seems to be jacked up a bit. On Guile's stage, the Genesis shadow in between the fighters and the spectators kind of looks muddy, and the gradient in the sky from top to bottom of purple to red to orange is really harsh. I think this is where you see the limitations of the lesser color palette on the Genesis. And the tinny sound on Genesis is just hard on the ears. For these reasons, I'd pick the SNES version. On the other hand, there are things the Genesis version does better. It seems to be more arcade accurate with the beat up portraits. I never understood why they changed these for the SNES version of SF2:WW. Of course, the Genesis has the arcade style intro, whereas the SNES version just has boring text on a black screen. Of course, what you don't get to compare in this video is the actual gameplay...

[@PaulBlaster]

tfs, obrigado por este vs. esta e minha jogatina favorita! (^^)/

[@robertosilveirap-x8715]

Vou explicar porque a do Mega-Drive é melhor, apesar de ter alguns pontos em que perde p- Nintendo - e eu achar o SNES um videogame melhor (cumprindo com a lógica de ter sido lançado 02 anos mais tarde). O Mega tinha um processador mais espaçoso e 04x mais rápido do que o SNES. No resto - cores, pixels, memória, conectividade (...), a versão do SNES era melhor. Os joysticks de 06 botões do Mega, prá mim, ERAM MELHORES. Os joysticks do SNES eram melhores do que os do Mega somente qdo eram comparados os 06 botões contra os de 03 do Mega. Quanto ao som. No geral, os do SNES eram melhores. Mas em alguns aspectos, os do Mega levavam vantagens. Falo mais especificamente de "músicas" e não de "vozes". AS MÚSICAS DA SEGA ERAM BEM MAIS MELODIOSAS, SEM SER REPETITIVAS DE MAIS, COMO ERAM NA NINTENDO. A Nintendo gostava muito de fazer músicas de ópera e clássicas, onde , Pianos e Violinos deveriam aparecer. Priorizavam também o bazz da batida, tendo muita bateria e bajo. Priorizava-se efeitos antagônicos ao Sorrund (priorizando os elementos frontais da música). Já a Sega priorizava guitarras, violões, cornetas e sax. Aí davam mais atenção ao Sorrund (os efeitos do fundo da música são destacados). EU PREFIRO SORRUND!!! Falando em música, as músicas TODAS AS MÚSICAS DOS PERSONAGENS FICARAM BEM MELHOR QUE A DO SNES!! O som das músicas do SNES ficaram mais limpos, MAS MUITO CHATAS, PARECE QUE USARAM SOMENTE UM "INSTRUMENTO MUSICAL" - sem diversificação. A do Mega era melhor PORQUE ERA LEMBRAVA MAIS O FLIPERAMA!! A tonalidade das vozes dos personagens (até qdo são nocauteados), os sons das porradas... As cores das peles deles (no SNES parece que é todo o mundo pertencente à raça branca, parecendo um eurocentrismo, tanto na versão EUA como na JAP). Prá quem reclama que o som do Mega é ROUCO... Eu também acho isso. MAS O SOM DO FLIPERAMA TAMBÉM É UM POUCO ROUCO. Na do Mega é mais fácil fazer os combos (seguindo mais o que acontece no Arcade). Na do SNES é mais difícil pq o atacante é jogado p- trás qdo acerta o 1º golpe da sequência.

[@MegaFCKforever]

Why isnt it possible in turbo mode to have youre character with the original colours ??

[@Stealthborn]

To me both are pretty good versions to have. Although the SNES does have the better presentation it all comes down to how it controls and plays. The Genesis would have the better control more suited for the game but it still disappoints me that Sega made you have to purchase that 6 button controller separately. Overall they both are roughly the same to me. It would all come down to fanboys to decide which version is better in the end. Now if the 3DO version came into play then it would make both of these ports somewhat obsolete...

[@AtariBorn]

The 6 button controller was made for Street Fighter II Champion Edition and when I bought my Genesis Model 2, it came with a 6 button controller, so I'm sure 3 button controllers were harder to find new after this game came out. The 3DO port was Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo, even better than Super Street Fighter 2! It's a great version of it.

[@Rob55Levo]

Six button SEGA Mega Drive controller, so much better for games like this than the Snes controller with its annoying as hell shoulder buttons, couldn't pull off half the moves with that crap control pad.

[@MrBillgonzo]

Robin Levingstone I think it's just a matter of what you learn to play on. Most people say a joystick is the only way to play this game, but I played on a snes controller for years and I suck ass on arcade because of it.

[@AtariBorn]

+OutFreak28 Anyone who bought Street Fighter 2 for Genesis either had a 6 button controller or bought one. There's no way controls are an issue on Genesis. Probably the biggest advantage of the Genesis version is spot on controls.

[@hermansales9582]

Versões semelhantes, mas no SNES os cenários possuem maior resolução, degradé e elementos móveis. No Mega o jogo parece rodar mais rápido, porém abriu mão de coisas importantes pra isso.

[@greensun1334]

All 16bit Streetfighter games have the same resolution of 256x224. You can play with up to 10* game speed on SNES by just using a simple imput on the "TURBO" screen, called the "hyper-cheat", so there isn't any speed difference either.

[@240pgames4]

Junior dependendo do jogo eu não acho que o SNES leve vantagem sobre o Mega na qualudade do som . Mortal Kombat eu acho o áudio do MD muito melhor do que no SNES porque o chip dele faz as músicas ficarem mais sinistras , combinando como clima proposto pela série . Tem muitos outros games que eu na minha opinião o Mega supera mas aí vai de cada um , desde que os caras não sejam fanboyolas acéfalos

[@juniorscorpions7753]

Afro Samurai Eu concordo contigo. Outro exemplo é o Fifa Soccer 97. A música na versão do mega é bem superior. Mas na maioria dos casos, o SNES leva vantagem nos gráficos e som. Enquanto o MD leva vantagem na jogabilidade, por dois motivos: Um é o fato do processador do MD ser superior ao SNES. Outro fator é o controle de 6 botões. Já o terceiro fator é pessoal. Pra mim a maioria dos jogos exclusivos do MD são melhores que os exclusivos do SNES.

[@juniorscorpions7753]

Lembrando que tem alguns jogos do MD que supera o SNES em gráficos também. Um bom exemplo é o jogo do Aladdin.

In my opinion the MD is better. Sure, it doesnt have clear voice samples, the but MD's music is more look like the arcade and (in my opinion) just sounds more dramatic and exciting. Sega's version has better grafics. In game it is the same, but in continue screen the MD has more animations, than SNES. Also, Sega has arcade style intro (again, more animations and graphic issues). SNES port has done well, but for me the MD version is better.
