Re: Street Fighter 2 animated DVD questions
Japan/US/UK releases are non-anamorphic DVDs.
The new Australian disc is apparently anamorphic in 1.77:1 As it says on the Madman site, but as for if it's "Cropped on the sides from 1.85:1" or if it's "Opened up from the top and bottom from 1.85:1", I don't know. Unless you have both discs and compare them together.
But either way, you'll be either missing a sliver of information on the sides,
or you'll be getting a sliver of information on the top and bottom.
I'd say go with the anamorphic Australian version if you have a wide TV (which I assume most people do by now)

Good point on the AU version possibly being opened from top/bottom rather than cropped from the sides.
If it's cropped from the sides then the US version is better despite not being anamorphic, if it's opened from top/bottom then the AU version is better.
I wonder which one it is.
Sucks (and shocking) there really isn't a page on the net to compare/contrast.
This is what IMDB says: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114563/technical

Re: Street Fighter 2 animated DVD questions
Apparently this is going to be included on the Street Fighter Anniversary Collectors box, and on bluray:
http://www.amazon.com/Street-Fighter...Y1NEX2CKCZJWD2
Of course, the list price for it is $149.99, but it does come with a lot of stuff.
