Street Fighter: The Movie (disambiguation)

Street Fighter: The Movie is a 1995 fighting game based on the 1994 movie based on the hugely popular Street Fighter fighting game series by Capcom. The game used realistic, digitized graphics, trying to capitalize on the success of Mortal Kombat. The original arcade version of Street Fighter: The Movie was developed by Incredible Technologies. A drastically different home version was developed in-house by Capcom and published by Acclaim outside Japan.

The game was retitled Street Fighter: Real Battle on Film for its Japanese console release. Presumably this was done to disambiguate it from the similarly titled Street Fighter II: Movie console game in Japan based on the animated movie.

Gameplay
The game came in two forms, the arcade version and the home version released for the Sega Saturn and the PlayStation. Both games used digitized graphics, a bulk of the same characters and many of the special moves from Street Fighter II. The similarities would end there.

Arcade version
While Capcom put their name on the cabinet, they had virtually nothing to do with creation of this game. Incredible Technologies designed all the animation and stages and created all the music and sounds. Controls for special moves are modeled after both Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. For example some moves are used by doing down, down/forward and forward (D, DF, F) and punch or kick on the control stick. Other moves are done by just doing forward and forward (F, F) on the control stick as done in Mortal Kombat. The special moves and super moves are added to familiar characters with the MK style of activation. Some of the moves involve characters using weapons that were not featured in the movies or original games. There are also three types of super moves, Blue Super Combos which are the original super moves, Red Super Combos, more damaging moves that usually are activated with Mortal Kombat style moments on the control stick and finally ReGen, a move that recharges the player's life bar. This was the first Street Fighter game to have more than one super combo. The game's cast is Ryu, Vega, Guile, Sagat, Ken, E. Honda, Chun-Li, Cammy, Sawada, Balrog, Blade, Bison, Akuma and Zangief. Arkane, F7 and Khyber appear as secret characters. Super Bison is also a secret character, but cannot be selected without modifying the game's code in some way.

Home Version
Capcom developed the PlayStation and Saturn versions internally, drastically changing the game from what it appeared as in its arcade counterpart, including music and stages. They also used Japanese voice actors that sounded like the voices of the original characters. Capcom also reprogrammed the game engine making it very similar to Super Street Fighter II Turbo. The home versions were published in North America and Europe by Acclaim.

Differences in the character roster include:


 * Blade and the palette-swap Bison troopers are gone.
