Game Play

Choose any of the 15 fighters (eleven main fighters, two hidden fighters, two bosses) and win two matches to advance to the next round. What was innovative about this game is your fighter's ability to evade attacks by Side-stepping, or dodging, them. Each fighter has two types of super attacks: the "OVERDRIVE" super, which is unleashed by pressing all four attack buttons when your "Overdrive" meter is full, and the "DESPERATION" super, which is unleashed when your life meter is at critical and you're about to be KO'd.
