Collector interest

The Japanese version of Capcom's versus puzzler, titled Super Puzzle Fighter II X, a bit less widespread than the Western editions. This native edition appeals to collectors of the regional variants of this clever crossover between puzzle and versus stars. Its interest lies in this local run and original packaging rather than marked scarcity.

Better with friends

A colorful puzzle duel where miniaturized fighters trade gems to group and bury the opponent under cascading blocks. The competition rewards anticipation and speed, each well-prepared combination firing back a devastating avalanche. Charming and snappy, it puts beginners and regulars on equal footing and triggers last-second reversals that make you shout for joy.

Is Super Puzzle Fighter II X still worth playing in 2026?

Released in 1996 on PS1 as Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo and in Japan as Super Puzzle Fighter II X, Capcom's project offers a competitive puzzle inspired by Capcom versus fighting. The stones fall by colour and explode in chains thanks to Crash gems, triggering nuisance sends to the opponent. The Street Fighter and Darkstalkers chibis deliver a charming cast. The 2D modelling ages with its charm. Recommended today for competitive puzzle devotees, for Capcom fans and for PS1 collectors fond of a major genre classic on Sony's first home console hardware globally.
