A playthrough of Capcom's 1993 beat 'em up for the Super Nintendo, Final Fight 2.

Played through as Haggar on the expert difficulty level to show the best ending.

Responsible for establishing the formula that defined the 90's beat 'em up, Capcom's Final Fight (   • Final Fight (Arcade) Playthrough - Ni...  ) was an immediate hit when it came out in late 1989, and it's still celebrated as a classic genre cornerstone today.

Despite its cutbacks, the Super Nintendo version (   • Final Fight (SNES) Playthrough  ) was likewise an incredibly popular game when it was released in the fall of 1991, selling around 1.5 million copies. This success inevitably led Capcom to develop a direct sequel, the SNES-exclusive Final Fight 2, which shipped worldwide in 1993.

In Final Fight 2, Mike Haggar once again stars as the ex-professional wrestler turned head-busting vigilante mayor of Metro City. Guy's girlfriend Rena and her father, Genryusai, have been kidnapped by the new leader of the Mad Gear gang, and Rena's sister Maki calls Haggar asking for help. Haggar and his buddy Carlos then head to Hong Kong to meet up with Maki and begin the search.

The gameplay feels much the same as Final Fight's, but the sequel addresses all the complaints that were leveled at the port of the original game. There are three selectable characters who each have their own distinctive fighting styles and movesets, the game features a 2P simultaneous co-op mode, and the slowdown that plagued the first game is nowhere to be found.

It was clear that Capcom had a much better handle on the SNES hardware this time around. The game's larger cart size and the fact that it was designed specifically with the limits of the SNES in mind resulted in a game that felt far less compromised than the first one. The animation is better, the controls are more consistent thanks to the game's improved performance, and there's more content overall - six lengthy stages, in total.

(I did have one complaint, though. The soundtrack was such a disappointment for me. I hated it! The songs aren't memorable, the instruments are grating, and there's way too much reverb.)

It didn't fare quite as well critically as the first game did, but it was a huge success for Capcom with sales once again topping the million mark. The main takeaway from the reviews was that it was essentially a redressed copy of the first Final Fight with all of the kinks ironed out, and I'd say they were pretty spot-on.

If you hated Final Fight, there isn't much on offer here that would change your mind. But, for fans of the original, Final Fight 2 provides more of the same great gameplay with a whole lot more polish.
