Topic: Trouble with 2-Player in Street Fighter II

Hi, I'm not a seasoned gamer so please bear with me. I recently downloaded Street Fighter II to my Wii U. I'm trying to use 2-Player mode but I'm having some issues.
1) When I go to "Options" I don't have the ability to select either "1 Player" OR "2 Player". All the other options have a choice highlighted in yellow, except for number of players.
2) When I go to "Vs" I can choose a player for the 1st player but then I can not get out of this screen. Nothing I press lets me out. Its not exactly frozen because the music is still playing but I have to restart the Wii U to get out.

Anyone else having these issues? I just deleted and reinstalled the software but that didn't help. Thanks!

Have you tried using the second controller?

Yes. I'm using the Classic Controller but have the Wii U Game Pad, too. When I'm on the "Vs" screen, no matter which controller I use to scroll through the characters, it just moves player 1.

Can someone point me in the direction of some forums that may be helpful in troubleshooting this?

@CantinaDanny Yeah, the Classic Controller is still the player one controller. Try setting up two wii remotes and then using the classic controller with the player two's remote.

@Bass_XO – great info! Thanks much for letting me know. I will give it a try this evening and let you know how it goes.

@Bass_XO Oh man, it didn't work. When I tried to start the game up with the Wii Remotes a window came up saying: "For this game control with Wii Remote may be limited ... disconnecting Wii Remote."

Frustrating. I can play single player. But any time I go to the VS Battle screen and I choose the 1P's character, that's it. I can not go further. Can't even get out of that screen. Have to restart.

Huh. That sounds like a glaring oversight right there...

In the touch screen menu you can select which control if for which player.

You need to have the Wii Classic Controllers plugged into the Wiimotes since it is a SNES game.

^In both Wiimotes? How's he supposed to use the Gamepad for Player One, then?

As DarkEdi said, the easiest way is to access the touch screen menu. I think you can change the GamePad as player 2 with a single button press and keep the Wiimote as player 1. I haven't used Wii U VC for multiplayer for a while so I'm not quite sure but I think changing Wiimote as player 2 is harder and requires you to connect multiple Wiimotes.

In the post I quoted, he said Wiimotes.
