Street Fighter Zero 2' (ストリートファイターZERO2′), or Street Fighter Zero 2 Dash is an updated version of Street Fighter Alpha 2. Originally released as part of Street Fighter Collection, the game was re-released separately in Japan under the Satakore label in 1998. In the West, this game is usually known as Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold.

Gameplay

The game is a one-on-one fighting game and mostly identical to Street Fighter Zero 2. It includes a new secret character, Cammy (as she appeared in X-Men vs. Street Fighter), selectable only in the Versus and Training modes. In addition to the EX characters from the base game, EX versions of Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Sagat, and Vega are present (and all EX characters have been made easier to select). A Gouki Mode has been added where the player faces Shin Gouki without needing to unlock him. However, the Saturn-exclusive Illustrations feature has been removed. Some characters have new moves and Super Combos. Original Combos are now executed by pressing a punch and kick button of the same strength simultaneously, and Zero Counters now cost one and a half levels of the Super Combo gauge. The soundtrack has been revised.

Characters move with Left and Right and crouch with Down. They jump with Up and flip back and forth with Up-left and Up-right. Punches are done with X (jab), Y (medium), and Z (fierce), and L is equivalent to holding all three punch buttons at once. Kicks are done with A (short), B (medium), and C (roundhouse), and R is equivalent to holding all three kick buttons at once. Light attacks are faster and hard attacks deal more damage. Special moves for each character are done by pairing specific directional combinations with an attack button. Characters can perform a taunt once per round with L+R, which is a short animation during which the character is vulnerable to attack.

Throws and grabs are done by holding Left or Right when next to an opponent and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button. Different characters have different throws available to them, and some characters can throw in midair. Throws cannot be blocked, but a player can reduce the damage taken from a fall by likewise holding Left or Right and pressing a medium or hard punch or kick button. It is also possible to roll on the ground after falling from a throw or other attack by pressing Down Down-left Left P (or Down Down-right Right P if facing left).

Blocking is done by holding the D-Pad away from the opponent. Characters can block in midair but cannot air block against normal attacks from an opponent that is standing on the ground and cannot air block after performing an attack in the air. Special moves still do a small amount of "chip damage" if blocked. Characters can become dizzy from being attacked repeatedly; they are uncontrollable and vulnerable in this state but can recover more quickly by rapidly pressing back and forth on the D-Pad along with the attack buttons. It is also possible to escape grabs in this way. In addition, players can perform a special counterattacking technique called a Zero Counter (Alpha Counter in the Western versions) after blocking an opponent's attack, which interrupts the blocked attack at the cost of one and a half levels of the Super Combo gauge. Each character has two Zero Counters, one executed with punch and one executed with kick.

Characters have a Super Combo gauge that fills as the character performs regular and special techniques or takes damage. When the gauge reaches level 1 or higher, the player can perform a Super Combo technique, which is a more powerful version of a special attack, using a button combination that is slightly more complex than those used by special moves. The number of punch or kick buttons pressed simultaneously when performing a Super Combo determines the strength of the attack and thus the number of levels that are consumed. The Super Combo gauge carries over between rounds (but not between battles).

If the Super Combo gauge is at least level 1, the player can initiate an Original Combo (Custom Combo in the Western versions) by pressing a punch and kick button of the same strength simultaneously. This causes the character to move faster, with attacks performed much more quickly and with much less recovery time, while the Super Combo gauge quickly drains. The player can then perform any series of basic and special moves to create an Original Combo until the Super Combo gauge is completely exhausted. The character cannot block or move backwards during the Original Combo. Charge moves can be performed without charging (for example, the player only needs to press Left Right P for a Sonic Boom). The character can be hit out of the combo early, but the Original Combo has a brief period of invulnerability when it is initiated (which is longer when the Super Combo gauge is at a higher level).

There are two game speeds, Normal and Turbo, and two playing styles that can be selected after choosing a character, Normal and Auto. Auto differs from Normal in that the character automatically guards against a limited number of attacks (provided the character is not in the middle of performing an attack). Auto also limits the player to a maximum of one Super Combo gauge level, but in turn, it allows the player to perform an instant Super Combo by pressing a punch and kick button of the same strength simultaneously (using a different Super Combo for the light, medium, and hard buttons, initiating a Original Combo if the character only has two Super Combos).

Modes

Street Fighter Zero 2 Dash, Akuma Mode.png

Gouki Mode

The following game modes are available:

  • Arcade Mode: The single-player mode consists of eight matches against computer-controlled opponents, including a final opponent whose identity depends on the player's selected character. Each character also has a secret rival that they can face during the course of the single-player mode if the player finishes at least five rounds with a Super Combo or a Custom Combo and does not lose a match before the sixth battle. When these requirements are met, the rival interrupts the player's next match and fights the player's character after a short dialogue scene. With Gouki now a regular character, a more powerful version of the character dubbed Shin Gouki replaces him as a secret opponent, fought before the final opponent if certain requirements are met.
  • Versus Mode: A two-player versus mode where two players can choose any character and a handicap and fight each other.
  • Training Mode: A practice mode where the player can select any character and any opponent. The opponent cannot be defeated, and the player's Super Combo gauge can be set to any level and automatically replenishes after it is used. The opponent can be set to stand, crouch, or jump. There is a recording feature that records the player's actions and plays them back.
  • Survival Mode: A single-player mode where the player chooses a character and tries to defeat every character in the game (besides hidden characters) with a single vitality bar. Some vitality is replenished after each round, depending on the player's score.
  • Gouki Mode: A single-player mode where the player chooses a character and fights a single match against Shin Gouki.

There are eight difficulty levels for computer-controlled opponents. The game saves high scores to the console's internal memory.

EX Vega (EX M. Bison)
A version of Vega more closely resembling his Street Fighter II moveset. He loses his Psycho Shot projectile but regains Psycho Crusher as a special move (rather than a Super Combo). He cannot air block or use Super Combos.
