To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Street Fighter, Capcom is re-releasing Street Fighter II in cartridge form: the only problem is that it costs $100 and can cause your SNES to catch on fire. According to a warning on retailer iam8bit’s site, the reproduction may cause consoles to overheat, and gamers are encouraged to have fire extinguishment equipment nearby.
Featuring one of two colored cartridges, each houses the original game code and fully playable on NTSC consoles - but that’s just the beginning! The “Legacy Cartridge Collection” embodies retro-inspired luxury, amplifying the core SNES box design with a glistening foil sheen, delicately embossed texture, chic spot varnish and an innovative tri-fold cover that opens to reveal bonus vintage art. Inside, we’re keeping it old-school by restoring the contents of the original instruction booklet, complete with a new archival cover print + secret pack-ins (to be revealed when you crack that shrink-wrap seal).
