The A-ism style is taken from the Street Fighter Alpha series, X-ism is from Super Street Fighter II Turbo, and V-ism is from Street Fighter Alpha 2. Some transition will be necessary for veteran fighters due to the button layout of the Game Boy Advance, but the depth and style of the series shines through.
