* = moves with this symbol can be performed in the air and on the ground unless labeled as (air only)
stuns opponent = opponent will be unable to block for about 2 seconds if the move hits
will hit fallen opponent = the move will strike an opponent who has just been knocked down if your character is close enough and if the move is done fast enough
must be very close (or) when close = get as close to your opponent as possible, stand right next to them in order to grab them
---Basic Moves:
*Block = hold B when being attacked high or D/B when being attacked low (only hold B to block in air)
Push Block = 3P while blocking (will push attacking opponent away from character)
Forward Dash / Run = F, F
Backward Dash / Back-Flip = B, B
*Air Dash = F, F in air (only some characters)
*Dash = 3P+ F or B (same as above dashes but with different command)
Super Jump = D, U (quickly) or 3K
*Throw = F+ MP, HP, MK, or HK when close (some characters don't have MK or MP throws) (some characters can throw their opponents while they are both close to each other in air) (UNBLOCKABLE)
*Tech Hit (Throw Escape) = F+ MP or HP while being thrown
Defensive Roll = QCB+P while falling after being hit (this will cause your character to roll toward your opponent about half a screen length before standing, this will prevent you from being hit by any moves that can hit a fallen opponent)
Taunt = Start
Team Attack = MP+MK (your teammate will jump in and perform the move listed in the below move lists)
Character Switch = HP+HK (teammate will jump in and kick opponent in the face then taunt and prepare for battle while your other character jumps out and regains some life)
Team Counter = RQCB+HP+HK (immediately after blocking an attack) (level 1) (switches teammates)
Team Super = QCF+HP+HK (will cause both of your characters to perform a certain Super at the same time) (level 2) (switches teammates)
---Game Options:
After selecting your characters you will be given the choice of "Easy" or "Normal" mode.
Easy mode = initiate complete "air combo" by pressing WP+WK when near opponent
some special moves and Supers can be performed by rapidly pressing certain buttons
You will also be given a choice between "Turbo" and "Normal" speed. Turbo is a good deal quicker than normal mode. In a two player game, the challenger will be given the option to choose speed for the match unless both players start a new game together in which case player 1 will select the speed.
---Other Things You Need to Know:
At the bottom of the screen there is a meter that increases when you are hit, perform certain attacks, or block an incoming attack. This is the Super Meter. It can hold three levels of Super energy. One level of Super energy is used up when you perform a Super Move or perform a Team Counter. Team Supers use two levels of Super energy. Some Supers require three levels of Super energy (level 3) to be used; they are labeled in each characters move section.
Throws are UNBLOCKABLE. They can still be Tech Hit so that you take less damage and don't fall helplessly to the ground.
Note: throws that are character specific special moves are blockable unless otherwise labeled, but no special move throw can be Tech Hit.
Throws that have your character grab the opponent and repeatedly hit them can cause more damage, more hits, and be sped up by shaking the joystick rapidly and tapping all the buttons rapidly. If you are caught by one of these throws then you may shake the joystick rapidly and tap all the buttons rapidly to escape the throw sooner and take less damage.
If your character becomes stunned (stands on screen while you have no control over them) from taking too many hits or from getting hit with a move that instantly stuns (stuns opponent) then you may shake the joystick rapidly and tap all the buttons rapidly to recover from the stun quickly.
Press Start during a fight to taunt your opponent. Some taunts actually cause damage to your opponent but nothing else. When playing the Saturn Japanese import version remember that taunts are done with a specific "Chohatsu" (Taunt) button and not the Start button. You can set the Taunt button to be either the L or R button.
When switching characters in the middle of a fight, remember that their life will slowly recharge only to the end of the red area of their life bar. Life bars are normally yellow but some attacks cause part of the bar to turn red while others cause part of the bar to disappear completely.
When performing a Team Counter or a Team Super, you will not switch characters if the teammate coming into the battle is hit while attacking. Instead of switching characters like normal, the incoming character will simply jump back out.
Every character has a move called a "launcher." These moves will send an opponent straight into the air unable to block if they connect. After launching an opponent, tap U to jump up with them and perform an "air combo" by hitting the buttons in a certain sequence. Experiment with each character to see in what order you can tap the buttons to cause the most damage. You can also use some special moves, a F+MP throw, and some Supers as part of an "air combo."
You cannot perform an attack that requires a teammate if your teammate has been defeated in the current fight.
Most special moves and Supers will cause your opponent to take a little bit of damage if they block. Some characters have normal attacks that will cause block damage as well.
Rotating the joystick rapidly and tapping all the buttons rapidly while performing some multi-hitting special moves and Supers will cause the move to do more damage and more hits.
If you finish the second team member of your opponent's team with a Super then you'll see a cool looking background and the name of the Super printed across the screen.
When two projectiles meet they cancel each other. The button used to throw a projectile doesn't matter when projectiles hit each other; a projectile thrown with QCF+WP will cancel a projectile thrown with QCF+HP. Supers that create projectiles or beams of energy will also cancel special move projectiles and continue to travel across the screen. Some other special moves and Supers will cancel projectiles.
As with all Capcom 6-button fighting games, the strength of the button used to attack or to initiate a special move will determine the amount of damage the attack will do, the speed of the attack, the amount of recovery time from performing the attack, and the distance the attack travels. The stronger the button the more damage the attack will do and so on. A Jab punch does little damage, is very quick, recovers instantly, and has little range, whereas a Fierce punch does much more damage, is very slow, takes a long while to recover, and has a long range. The same is true for a fireball thrown with a QCF+WP or QCF+HP.

---Tricks to Fight Against Computer Controlled Hidden Characters:
Note: all computer controlled hidden characters use either M. Bison or Akuma as their teammate. If these tricks are done correctly then you will fight them in the match just before Apocalypse.
Mega Zangief
Don't fight against another human player.
Don't continue.
Don't let either of your characters be beaten.
Finish all matches with Super finishes.
Two of the Super finishes must be Team Supers.
Dark Sakura
Don't fight against another human player.
Don't continue.
Don't let either of your characters be beaten.
Finish all matches with Super finishes.
Four of the Super finishes must be Team Supers.
Shadow
Don't fight against another human player.
Don't continue.
Don't let either of your characters be beaten.
Use the "Order Switch" trick before every match.
Get the "First Attack" bonus in every match.
Finish four matches with Team Supers.
---Miscellaneous Tricks:
---Activate Norimaro's Quadruple Jump:
To be able to use Norimaro's quadruple jump, you must hold WP+WK+MP before a match begins. This will allow Norimaro to quadruple jump in only the match you are about to fight. You must repeat the code before each match or you won't be able to use the quadruple jump anymore.
---Dan's Explosion Entrance:
To see Dan fall onto the floor in a large explosion before a match begins, you must have Dan as your first character in line to fight. Before the match begins hold WP until you see Dan jump in and hit the floor. This trick has no effect on game play.
---Order Switch:
You will begin each fight with the first character that you selected, however, by holding 3P before the beginning of a match you will switch the order of your characters and begin the match with the second character you selected. This code changes the order of your characters for the rest of the matches in your game, not just the next match, repeat the code to switch the order back. This trick can be done as many times as you like in a game.
---Beat Up the Loser:
Press Start when your character is in their winning pose after defeating the other team to regain control of your character in order to beat up the loser's lifeless body. You may perform special attacks as well as normal attacks and you can even use a Super move if you have Super energy remaining.
Note: This will not work if you used a Team Super or Team Attack to defeat your opponent.
---Beat Up Your Teammate:
After you have beaten Cyber Akuma and your opponent drops onto the screen, you can press Start just like the "Beat Up the Loser" trick above and attack your teammate. If you hit them enough they will eventually start to fight back.
---Saturn Japanese Import Version Only Codes:
---Bonus Options:
Beat the entire game once on any difficulty level (you may continue as many times as you need) and you will get access to bonus options in the "Options" menu such as "Same Character Select," which will allow you to have the same character as both of your team members. You will also get options like "Infinite Life Gauge" and more stars to add to the game speed.
Beat the game once more at maximum difficulty (you may also continue as many times as you need) and you will get a "Hyper Combo Gauge" option, which will allow you to always have a full Super Meter.
If you beat the game once at maximum difficulty without continuing, you will get all of the bonus options without having to beat the game twice.
---"Mech-Gouki Now!!" Mode:
Beat "Survival Mode" once on any difficulty level and this option will become available. To activate it, you must highlight "Survival Mode" in the main menu and press L or R. "Survival Mode" will change to "Mech-Gouki Now!!". Selecting it will cause you to fight Cyber Akuma (Mech-Gouki) immediately.
---Play as Cyber Akuma:
Beat "Mech-Gouki Now!!" Mode on any difficulty level and beat the entire game once to get access to the "Same Character Select" option. Select "Arcade" or "vs." and on the character select screen highlight Akuma, hold Start, and press any button. Then highlight Akuma again for your second team member, hold Start, and press any button. You will now have Cyber Akuma as your one character instead of two Akumas.
