Easy Special Moves
If you are having trouble pulling off your favorite character's special moves on the small GBA controls, this code can help you out a bit.


During a 1p game, tap Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B then A without pausing the game. You need to do it very quickly.

Once the code has been entered you will be able to pull off special moves by simply tapping a direction on the D-pad and the correct button.

Unlock Survival Mode and Time Attack
Two additional modes will appear on the main menu once you have beaten the game a couple times.
The first mode is a Survival mode, and the second is a Time Attack.


Glitch: Charge Abolishment
In arcade mode, select your character with charge moves. When the fight begins, exit the game by pressing SELECT + START. Go to arcade mode again and pick the same character you played the first time. Now all the character's charge moves can be done without charging the 2 seconds. The only drawback is you cannot perform supers. (Unverified)

SOTA returns to their roots in 2007, with this new Street Fighter line called Street Fighter Beta which will feature a new look for the characters from the series...


In 2004, SOTA Toys brought out what are considered one of the great action figure lines - Street Fighter.

In 2007, SOTA Toys will bring you Street Fighter Beta!

Taking what worked in the previous lines and adding a new take on designs, Street Fighter Beta will serve as a glimpse of the new looks to come. The same great sculpture and articulation will be there but the look will go back to the roots of the story, to the "anime" look that fans around the world first fell in love with.

And don't worry - these figures will fit in seamlessly with the previously released figures!
