    According to www.the-magicbox.com, PS2 owners will be getting a nice treat this summer.

    I for one can't wait for this. I finally won't have to dig thru my collection to find those old Street Fighter Alpha games, I can just pop in a PS2 disc and play 'em ! And including a rare game like Pocket Fighter... Very nice.

    It was Zero 2 alpha, it was released on the PS1 as Alpha 2 gold and will be in this collection as that as well. I have also heard that it is due for the Xbox.

    I wonder if they'll keep the team mode on Alpha one. I loved that aspect of the game. Spent countless nights in the dorm playing with my dormmates, only to fall asleep at 5 am and miss all my classes. Gotta love academic probation!

    No it was in Street Fighter Collection (The First One) on the PSX and Saturn. I have it, I am also an arcade technician and know my Arcade History. The first collection was Super Street Fighter II, Super Street Fighter II Turbo, and Street Fighter Alpha 2 Gold (Which is Street Fighter Zero 2 Alpha I have the Arcade Board and the PSX version)

    I found something on this, it was released as Street Fighter Zero 2 Dash in some countries, I had forgotten about this, my Japanese Saturn version is in storage and I never looked at the title, I assumed it was Zero 2 Alpha like the Arcade version.

    :lol  :lol  :lol 

    Anyway, I'm excited about this. I've only played Alpha 3, and I always wanted to play Pocket Fighter and the other Alpha games.
