**Please note: This is for the Japanese PS1 console or region free mod consoles!
Capcom's first original Street Fighter game since 1991, Street Fighter Alpha distinguishes itself with an animé-influenced visual style and younger versions of Street Fighter II's cast. Known as Street Fighter Zero in Japan, Alpha serves as a prequel to 1991's game and introduces three new playable characters: U.S.A.F. lieutenant Charlie, Italian fortune-teller Rose, and Hong Kong martial artist Dan Ribicki. The remainder of the cast includes a mix of characters featured in previous Capcom games, such as Guy from 1989's Final Fight and Birdie from 1987's Street Fighter.
The PlayStation version of the arcade game offers three play modes: "Arcade," "Versus," and "Training." Arcade involves selecting one of ten initially available characters and battling a series of seven opponents until an eventual showdown with M. Bison or another boss. Versus lets you challenge a friend to a one-on-one fight, while Training involves practicing each character's varied moves. Street Fighter Alpha's gameplay once again relies on mastering character-specific combos. Characters can also perform multiple levels of "super" moves by maxing out a meter, block in the air, initiate counter attacks, taunt, and more.
The new moves available for each fighter, called Super moves, allow them to fire off very powerful moves. A bar at the bottom of the screen represents the power that you have to use for the moves. You start the first round on 0, and each attack that you make adds power to the bar. Once you reach level 3, you can unleash the special attacks, that can sometimes KO the opponant.
The other major change over the Street Fighter 2 series are the Alpha counters. These can be used to counter an on-coming attack after blocking.
Manufacturer's description:
DARE TO WALK ON THE DANGEROUS SIDE OF THE STREET
Intense. Brutal. Combat. The world has never encountered such a powerful collection of fighters in one tournament. Until now…
Armed with an arsenal of new moves, super combos and deadly secrets, the legendary Street Fighters collide with a lethal new combination of fierce opponents.
Now Charlie, Sodom, Birdie and Guy show they play for keeps when they battle on the street. New contenders Rose and Adon draw powers of the soul and nature to annihilate opponents and secure fame, power and prestige.
Bring this old friend from the arcade days home to set your PlayStation on fire with stunning graphics and dynamic gameplay. The timing, control, and character design are all superb and just the way you remember them. STREET FIGHTER ALPHA also brings some exciting new characters to the game, along with some special moves that are called Super moves. The Super moves are powered up by repeatedly landing blows on your opponent. Another exciting addition is the Alpha Counter, which can reverse an attack with a quick block and counter strike. You’ve seen plenty of fighting games that have come and gone since STREET FIGHTER ALPHA, but few have been remembered as fondly. Another fun aspect of this game is the ability to mix and match members of the STREET FIGHTER games who have never met and see how they do in battle.
The most extreme one-on-one warfare ever!
