Ahead of the Tokyo Game Show later this month, Capcom has shed some light on Hyper Street Fighter II: The Anniversary Edition, which will launch for PS2 in Japan this December to celebrate 15 years of Street Fighter II.

According to reports, HSFII will use character sprites from Super Street Fighter II Turbo, but will incorporate character setups from every version of SFII in circulation, asking you to choose from World Warrior, Champion Edition, Turbo, Super and Super Turbo versions of a character.

Definitely one for the sort of purists who want to know how certain characters would fare had Capcom not upgraded their abilities, HSFII will also include a gallery mode showcasing artwork, opening/end sequences from all the SFII games, and detailed credits for every version to boot.

Even better, reports suggest that the legendary Street Fighter II Anime circa 1994 will also appear on the disc. Sceptics needn't fear though - this is no Van Damme/Kylie abomination, but a proper, Capcom-backed adaptation complete with dragon punches, Bison levitation, F-words and Chun Li getting butchered in her smalls.

Furthermore, producer Kenji Itsuno appeared at a pre-TGS press briefing this week and stated that a separate DVD showing all the different combos, tricks and quirks of the many iterations of SFII will also be released in Japan.

We only hope that some of these treats make it past the language barrier. At the moment though, there's no talk of a Western release.

ever tried it? I beat my sister (who was nifty enough using chun-li) using guile with one hand behind my back, ha ha ha.

that could be changed into a fairly dodgy quote, mods defend me.

and kdjac, would still like to try mate, i only really specialised in one character so you'd prob kick my ass using the rules in that link you gave, but a one off Guile vs whoever you like from originaly 8 chars (or boss chars for that matter) and i'd beat you down like a bad hound.

only on the SNES though, can never do as good using PS2 pads even though they are nearly identical, why like?

Hmm... they already released this on the Japanese Dreamcast, and that had freakin' online play (that would be sweet). The fact that this includes every version of Street Fighter II is nice, and it has very cool extras indeed. This may even make it to western shores, considering how popular this game was worldwide back in the day.

I'm off to sell my granny to get this. As for praetorian, I don't think Kdjac has much to worry about considering a hasbeen SF2 god (me :-) ) can kick his ass at it.

Meh, just another capcom collection. They're rereleased SF2 a ton of times already. I was hoping for new sprites (Sf3/ggx quality) and a few subtle changes to the gameplay.

2d graphics are stagnating in a horrible way these days. It's sad as there're no much more they could do with todays technology.
