While they were interesting to try, they generally broke the balance of the characters.Ĭapcom decided to release Hyper Fighting as an official upgrade that could not be matched by bootleggers while maintaining the character balance.
The bootlegs allowed weird behavior such as mid-air special moves and even changing a player's character in the middle of a match. Street Fighter II': Hyper Fighting (henceforth known as Hyper Fighting or Turbo), known in Japan as Street Fighter II Dash Turbo and officially rendered Street Fighter II′ Turbo (the word 'Dash' is represented by a prime symbol), was released a few months after Street Fighter II': Champion Edition in response to the proliferation of unauthorized grey-market hacks of Champion Edition that began to appear in the wake of the game's popularity such as 'Koryu', 'Rainbow' and etc.
