It has a charming style, awesome pixel art, a memorable soundtrack and characyers, making it one of the most enjoyable fighting games even for the new generations.
Nedless to say, the TRUE Street Fighter is played against other players. While fighting against the CPU provides some hints about the characters personality and story (basically a Story Mode, which consists in fighting the other 7 fighters and 4 bosses and timately shows you a cute cutscene), the A.I. was poorly designed and it often cheat just to beat the player so the original Arcade version can get some more money.
Despite it sounding like a lie, it was actually confirmed that the CPU has an unfair advantage over the player: it can instantly use charged attack, sometimes it has invincibility, others it can't be parried and others it just skip frames to attack first.
Despite that, the game can still be beated, somehow, and it really gives you a great feeling to achieve it, even if you basically won't ever see the ending in the Arcade one unless you have unlimited money or own and Arcade yourself.
The original Street Fighter II is quite simple, it doesn't have super moves and each character has few, but distinc moves. Despite it semplicity, this game played with friends is pure fun.
