Street Fighter II: The Definitive Soundtrack New Vinyl Pressing Available for Pre-Order

Last year, we reported that Brave Wave Productions had partnered with Capcom and original Street Fighter II composer Yoko Shimomura to produce a remastered version of the original Street Fighter II soundtrack, in both digital and vinyl formats: Street Fighter II: The Definitive Soundtrack.

Of course, the album quickly sold out upon release. As of the time and date of this posting, the cheapest eBay listing has the album going for just under $125 USD. However, If you missed out the first time around, Brave Wave recently announced some good news through partner Tiny Mix Tapes:

You can pre-order a copy from the re-press here for $75.00 USD. The album description from Mondo states that the “soundtrack release includes new remasters of both CPS-1 and CPS-2 versions of the arcade game, extracted directly from the arcade boards and approved by original composer Yoko Shimomura.”

A soundtrack like this definitely deserves another press and release!
