Final Fight 2 (ファイナルファイト2, Fainaru Faito Tsū) is a 1993side-scrollingbeat 'em up video game released by Capcom for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (known as the Super Famicom in Japan). It is the direct sequel to the 1989coin-operated arcade gameFinal Fight, which was previously also released for the SNES. Final Fight 2 was developed by Capcom's consumer division with no preceding coin-op version. The game was re-released onto Wii's Virtual Console service in 2009 for the North American and European regions.
Unlike the SNES version of the first game, Final Fight 2 supports two-player simultaneous play and has a total of three playable characters. The only playable character from the first game to return is Mike Haggar. Two new player characters were introduced: Carlos Miyamoto and Maki Genryusai. In the game's plot, the three battle the resurgent Mad Gear gang at various locations around Asia and Europe to rescue Maki's sister and father, who are also the fiancée and teacher respectively of Guy from the first Final Fight.[1]
Capcom followed up the game with another SNES-exclusive sequel, Final Fight 3, which saw the return of Guy to the series. None of the new characters from Final Fight 2 returned, although Maki made appearances in various Capcom fighting games years later.
Gameplay[edit]

Final Fight 2 does not deviate much from the original Final Fight in terms of gameplay, although unlike the SNES version of the first game (and the alternate version Final Fight Guy), Final Fight 2 features a two-player cooperative mode in addition to the single-player mode. The player has a choice between three characters: Haggar, who uses professional wrestling techniques; Maki, a female master of the fictional ninjutsu school of Bushin-ryū Ninpō, similar to Guy from the first game; and Carlos, a South American martial artist of Japanese descent who uses a sword for his Special Move. Through use of a code, two players can select the same character. Like in the original game, each character has their own set of fighting techniques and abilities unique to each character.
The gameplay remains the same as in the original game. The player has two main action buttons (Attack and Jump), which when pressed together, makes the player's character perform their Special Move (a third button can also be assigned for this purpose). The player proceed through levels fighting against hordes of underlings before reaching a boss character at the end of each stage.[2] Health-restoring food items and other bonus point items are hidden away in breakable drums and barrels. There are also three retrievable weapons in the game, a tonfa, a piece of lumber and a knife. There is also a 'Genryusai Doll' which makes the player invulnerable for a limited period and a 'Guy Doll' which gives the player an extra life.
There is a total of six stages in the game, each set in a distinct Eurasian location:[2] Hong Kong, France, Holland, England, Italy and Japan. As in the original game, the player will be pitted against numerous types of recurring enemy characters thorough the game. The only returning enemy characters from the original SNES game are the Andore family. Rolento, a boss character who was in the first Final Fight but omitted from the SNES port, appears as a boss character in this game (with his name spelled 'Rolent').
The player can adjust the difficulty (along with other settings) of the game in the options menu. Like in Final Fight Guy, each difficulty setting reveals only a certain portion of the ending, with the full ending being shown only by completing the game on the Expert setting.
The Japanese version of Final Fight 2 features two enemy characters named Mary and Eliza, who are knife-wielding female enemies with acrobatic techniques. Mary and Eliza were replaced by two substitute characters named Leon and Robert in the international versions of the game. Additionally, the first stage boss Won Won, wields a meat cleaver in the Japanese version, which was also removed in the overseas versions.
Plot[edit]
Time has passed since Mike Haggar, along with his friends Cody and Guy, defeated the Mad Gear gang and restored peace to Metro City. While the trio has continued living their normal lives, with Cody taking a vacation with his girlfriend Jessica, Guy going off to a training journey, and Haggar continuing to run Metro City as Mayor, the surviving Mad Gear members have secretly regrouped plotting their revenge under a new leader. They begin by kidnapping Guy's fiancée in Japan, Rena, along with her father and Guy's former sensei Genryusai.
With Guy nowhere to be found, Rena's younger sister, Maki Genryusai, calls Haggar and informs him of the situation. Accompanied by his friend Carlos Miyamoto, Haggar travels to Eurasia and meets up with Maki, and the three of them join forces to take on the newly revived Mad Gear. After a series of fights in several countries, the trail leads to Japan where they fight Retu, the new leader of the Mad Gear. The three defeat Retu, who falls to his doom like Belger in the first game and rescue Genryusai and Rena. Guy then writes a letter to his friends from abroad thanking them for all they have done.
Continuity[edit]
Although the events of the first game were intended to be the 'final fight,' this game retcons it by adding a subsequent fight.
Reception[edit]
Lucas M. Thomas of IGN, in the review of the 2009 Virtual Console release, called it 'decent brawler experience' even as 'pretty straightforward' and 'a bit bland', although wondering why Guy was not included when his fiancée was kidnapped in the story.[2] Nevertheless, the staff of GamesRadar ranked it as the 31st best SNES game: 'We were afraid the sequel might see similar limitations, but this one was built from the ground up for Nintendo’s super console, so everything we’d want from an arcade Final Fight 2 made its way to the cartridge. This was the Final Fight we always wanted.'[3] The Super NES version sold over one million copies worldwide.[4]

So yeah the SNES version of Final Fight sucked. It did very silly things like cutting out well-liked characters and not being a 2-player game. The latter being the equivalent of making a non-violent fighting game. Final Fight Guy did nothing to make things any better because, well, it didn’t make things any better – just swapped one character for another. So when it’s SNES only sequel, imaginatively titles Final Fight 2 was released it thankfully didn’t have much to live up to.
The game is just one long apology. Everything that was missing from the original is included here, even mad man Rolento, the boss who was chopped. But when you consider that most everything that was missing were basic beat ‘em up elements that’s nothing really noteworthy.
The main thing is the game plays like Final Fight. In fact you might think it’s the same thing with different sprites. And I say that’s a good thing because Final Fight played very well as still does. Amongst the ocean of beat ‘em ups Final Fight remains a stand out title for its controls and hit detection and just generally how well it plays. And 2’s characters are even slightly smoother moving. Other complaints aside it’s still a nice 2-player side scrolling beat ‘em up to play.
If you can play it with your eyes shut. Every new character is generic, ugly and totally lacking in charm and personality. Final Fight’s villains were in many ways better than the heroes – Sodom, Damnd, Rolento, Andore and Poison have appeared more than Guy, Haggar or Cody and rightly so. But the designers really phoned it in with the sequel. And who the hell thought putting Andore the WRESTLER in dungarees was a good idea? He’s not Andore the painter and decorator loves. Also there’s two new heroes, Maki, who is Guy’s girlfriend’s sister and Carlos, who is a big gay. They’re not as boring as Cody they’re close.
It’s a good enough beat ‘em up and the SNES was short on them so it’s worth playing through and yes – paying for.
