Cheats, Tricks and Bugs

TRICK: Perform the following to play as different characters:

    SATSUI NO HADO METAZE RYU (EVIL RYU): (Note: this trick does not work in Street Fighter Zero 2).

  • WINNING POSE SELECT: Win a round, press and hold Start and any one of the buttons (Punch or Kick) once the word KO appears.

    FIGHT AGAINST SECRET OPPONENT: (NOTE: every character has one secret opponent or mid-boss. They will appear and say something before fighting your character in the stage of the next opponent you're supposed to fight.

    Win any five rounds with either a Super or Custom Combo. The Secret Opponent appears to take over the next opponent after the opponent with the 5th/6th Super/Custom Combo Finish).

  • FIGHT AGAINST SUPER AKUMA: Start a normal game. Before reaching your last boss, get three PERFECTs, three Super (or Custom) Finishes and do not lose a round until the last boss. Super Akuma will appear before the fight with the last boss. After him, you will fight the last boss.

VAPS Arcade Census

GAMES OWNED, WANTED, or FOR SALE BY MEMBERS OF THE VIDEO ARCADE PRESERVATION SOCIETY

Common - There are 31 known instances of Street Fighter Alpha 2 owned by one of our 900 members. Of these, 2 of them are original dedicated machines, 4 of them are conversions in which game circuit boards (and possibly cabinet graphics) have been placed in (and on) another game cabinet, and 25 of them are only circuit boards which a collector could put into a generic case if desired.

Of the 57,098 video games (3,420 unique) tracked by the Video Game Preservation Society, this game ranks a 10 on a scale out of 100 (100 = most commonly seen, 1=least common) in popularity based on ownership records.

Wanted - There is one VAPS member currently looking for Street Fighter Alpha 2. There is one VAPS member looking for a Street Fighter Alpha 2 circuit board set.

For Sale - There is one VAPS member with a Street Fighter Alpha 2 machine for sale. There is one VAPS member with an extra Street Fighter Alpha 2 circuit board for sale. VAPS members are totally independent of VAPS and the International Arcade Museum, and we are unable to recommend, endorce, or guarantee any person or company selling games or game parts.

Rarity is NOT necessarily an indication of value. Some common games show up as very rare here because collectors don't want them (they are common because arcade operators might be sitting on tons of them in warehouses), while some fairly scarce games are grabbed by collectors every time they show up. Additionally, some games made in the last 5 years are still making money for operators and are thus not yet affordable to the typical collector. For a clue to value, compare how many people have this game vs. how many people want this game and then click on the eBay links to help determine an accurate price range.

Trivia

Many characters from Final Fight make cameo appearences in this game, three of which are playable: Sodom, Guy and Rolento. One of the characters is called Nash in Japan, but his name was changed to Charlie for the US version.

In Japan, the Street Fighter Alpha: Warriors' Dreams games are called Street Fighter Zero and the Alpha Counters are called Zero Counters. An upgraded version of Street Fighter Alpha 2, called Street Fighter Zero 2 Alpha, was released in Japan and a few places in Asia. The game has extra moves that were only available in the US "Alpha 2" version, certain characters from Street Fighter II' - Champion Edition along with a special version of Sakura. This version also has a Survival Mode and a Dramatic Battle Mode that pits two players against a computer controlled opponent.

The character Evil Ryu comes from a Japanese Manga (comic book) based on Street Fighter Zero by Masahiko Nakahira, published in Gamest (a Japanese arcade-only video game magazine published by Shueisha that includes manga based on arcade games).
