Capcom reveal Street Fighter 2 is being re-released on the SNES

Naturally however it has already SOLD OUT.

As a Street Fighter 30th Anniversary surprise, Capcom & iam8bit fistbumped to create this ultra premium throwback relic - a brand-new, freshly manufactured limited edition of Street Fighter II for Super Nintendo Entertainment System compatible hardware. Featuring one of two colored cartridges, each housing the original game code and fully playable on NTSC consoles - but that’s just the beginning! The “Legacy Cartridge Collection” embodies retro-inspired luxury, amplifying the core SNES box design with a glistening foil sheen, delicately embossed texture, chic spot varnish and an innovative tri-fold cover that opens to reveal bonus vintage art. Inside, we’re keeping it old-school by restoring the contents of the original instruction booklet, complete with a new archival cover print + secret pack-ins (to be revealed when you crack that shrink-wrap seal).

Brand-New Playable SNES Cartridge*

I was just gonna say. I guess that's why it's available in flame red. :lol:

This has got AndyXL's name all over it.

Now where is the SF collection for modern consoles?

They probably see the insane prices retro collectors are willing to pay for games they've probably owned/played before and so won't touch, except hey we can have 100% of that money instead of 0. Makes sense.

Although I'm sure it does cost a ridiculous amount to manufacture a short run of cartridges - it was a problem on a mass scale so it's probably even worse on a small one.

You can buy them now apparently.

Anybody that gives iambit money is a strawberry floating moron, they're massively overpriced, their customer service is gooseberry fool, and going by their Twitter they're often a bunch of cocky assholes.

Pft. I have the original and also Super Street Fighter 2.

Think I'll stick with SNES mini
