The premise, in the publisher's words
Street Fighter II for Game Boy is a handheld adaptation of Capcom’s arcade fighting game. It retains the one-on-one fighting structure, special moves, and several characters from the original game, but reduces the roster and simplifies the presentation for the Game Boy hardware. The port includes nine characters rather than the full arcade roster, omitting Dhalsim, E. Honda, and Vega. It uses monochrome graphics, smaller character sprites and a two-button control layout, with punches and kicks adapted to the Game Boy’s limited input options.
