Romhacks Super Street Fighter II – The New Challengers (Arcade Edition) (Genesis) Romhack

[Romhack Plaza]

Someone had submitted a hack that used BlastoBR’s remix content that corrupted graphics. This arcade edition has that removed to provide, hopefully the definitive arcade experience on the Mega Drive. This patch uses the more detailed and better colours by Lord Hiryu and Dolsilwa and the music patch by Aeronius. It also uses the PCM sound driver fix for clearer voices by Stephane Dallongeville. There’s also an MD+ version by infinest included that would allow CD quality music to be used, including the actual arcade soundtrack, which the pack can be found over on Zeldix https://www.zeldix.net/t2322-super-street-fighter-ii-the-new-challengers-md The MD+ version can […]

yes it is ntsc version. but only with the patch there is the flickering. but i had it also only with the palette patch months ago, when i tested it.. with genesis core on my side it is blue, with pico i think, it was also orange.

After close inspection it appears to be an NTSC 60Hz only issue. I played through it from start to finish myself and it never flickered on the top but I played it in PAL 50Hz. After reading your comment I tried it on Regen in 60Hz and there was indeed flickering on the top but it wasn't blue, it was orange. Very unusual that there's artefacting on a game made for NTSC 60Hz, usually it happens on games made in Europe for PAL 50Hz and then sped up to 60Hz.

Still glad this patch kept the original Super Street Fighter II music, the other one from last year had that god-awful music that sounded much, much worse.

with the hack, there is a blue flickering on the top of the screen with retorarch and the genesis gx core while fighting. with the unmodified rom, there is no such problem. can this be fixed?

This combination of hacks works fine. You can also add High Score SRAM to this to enable your scores to persist after turning off the game. <a href="https://romhackplaza.org/romhacks/super-street-fighter-ii-hiscore-sram-genesis/" rel="ugc">https://romhackplaza.org/romhacks/super-street-fighter-ii-hiscore-sram-genesis/</a>

Nice work, I had attempted to combine a bunch of improvement patches to SSF2, to limited success. (Audio was too low). This patch looks, sounds, and plays the way l was hoping.
