How to play Street Fighter II' - Champion Edition online

Getting started: When you boot the game, the title screen appears in Japanese. Press Start to reach the main menu. You'll see options like 'Game Start' (likely the first option), 'Options' for settings, and maybe 'VS Mode' for two-player battles. Navigate with the D-Pad and confirm with X (A button). Choose 'Game Start' to begin.

In single-player mode, you select a fighter from the roster of eight original characters plus the four grand masters (all playable in this version). Each match is a best-of-three rounds fight. Your goal is to defeat all opponents to become champion. The core loop involves spacing, using special moves (like fireballs and dragon punches), and blocking to counter attacks. The TurboGrafx-16 version retains the arcade gameplay but with slightly simplified graphics and sound.

If you're playing with a friend, pick 'VS Mode' for head-to-head matches. Thanks to Champion Edition, both players can now choose the same character, even the final bosses. This opens up mirror matches and new strategies. The game does not save progress, so you'll need to play through in one sitting or use save states in emulation.
