Regional Differences

Title Screen

Japanese Version	American/European Version

The logo is different for each region on the title screen.

Main Menu

Japanese Version	American/European Version

In the main menu, the Japanese version uses the same illustrations that were used in the sales flyers promoting the original arcade versions, while the Western versions uses the art used for the American flyers. Since Alpha 2 Gold was never released for the arcades in the US, the cover artwork of Street Fighter Collection was used instead. The regional differences between the default games themselves are the same as they were in their original arcade ports.

The Japanese version, differs slightly in its content of games. Japanese versions feature each of the Street Fighter Alpha arcade games, with the Japanese arcade versions of Alpha 2 and Zero 2 Alpha as part of the default lineup. The US version of Street Fighter Alpha 2, as well as Street Fighter Zero 2 Dash (the Japanese version of Alpha 2 Gold) as secret "arranged" versions of Zero 2 and Zero 2 Alpha are featured in the Japanese version due to their additional characters (Evil Ryu in the US Alpha 2 and Cammy in Zero 2 Dash). In the North American and PAL versions, the default versions of Alpha 2 and Alpha 2 Gold are the same as their "arranged" counterparts in the Japanese version, and unlocking Hyper Alpha simply requires beating the five main games and Alpha 3 Upper.

The Japanese version of the game offers more arranged modes of play than the International version. Unlock conditions for the games are as follows;
