The two great stables of the man-punching business finally get in the ring, with no excuses or handheld platform limitations getting in the way, to determine once and for all who has the best pixel art.

Unused Password?#
The game has a set of passwords that can be entered in the test menu to unlock hidden characters and other features. You can find the list of passwords in plain text by opening epr23511a.ic22 (Revision A set) at 0x140848 or epr23511c.ic22 (Revision C set) at 0x22E8CC.
There are seven known passwords, but the list includes an eighth password: VDEGLIAR is listed before the others, but entering it in the test menu gives an "invalid code" message. Whether it actually does anything is currently unknown.
Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Leftovers#
There's text for a Marvel vs. Capcom 2 character test menu in epr23511a.ic22 (Revision A set, at 0x140848) and epr23511c.ic22 (Revision C set, at 0x141134):

Regional Differences#
Watch on YouTubeIn all the Japanese versions and the European PS1 version, there are actually lyrics in the Final Fight stage and they contain swearing with the line "I'm ready to fucking spill!" (which comes from Masterbits CLIMAX 6 Rapsody (Vocals II) - Knowledge my wisdom). The lyrics were removed in the other European versions and all the US versions. The word "fucking" is also censored in Capcom Fighting Collection 2.
Unused Sprites#
Mai#
Mai has an unused, suggestive sprite of her special interaction animation against Chun-Li. There are also individual clothing sprites from Chun-Li present, which would have been used to layer on top of the suggestive sprite. The final version uses a different sprite that has Chun-Li's dress covering the front of Mai's body, all meshed together into one character sprite.
