Infinite combo
If you have Ex 1 or Ex 2 groove with infinite groove points, you can create a endless chain of level 2 super combos. If Ex 1 or Ex 2 groove is like the C groove, you can use almost any level 2 super combo if you have unlimited super combo gauge. If you start with a level 2 super combo, you can keep hitting your opponent until you want to stop. You just have to keep hitting the buttons for the super combo. You can finish by doing any level 3 super combo. This works well for Ken's Shoryu Reppa or just about any level 2 super combo, then finish with a level three or one combo. This is useful for eliminating Bosses such as Ultimate Rugal or Shin Akuma.
Easy points
Set the levels on the easiest level and increase the damage. Fight the first person. He or she is very easy. Do good damage and make sure you end the first round with the Super Combo. Play the second round. Beat them up, then press [Start] on controller two to enter a versus fight. The points you have accumulated just before the second player joins will be the same when you return to fight the first person again. You will also have to defeat them twice. You can keep repeating this process until you have accumulated the desired amount of points.
Successfully complete all survivor mode, with any EX set if needed. Attempt to create an EX groove greater than 4000 points. Answer "Yes" and the game will allow you to do so.
Street Fighter 2 music
Set up a match with Ryu versus Sagat in training mode. At times music from Street Fighter 2 will play.
Street Fighter 3 reference
In any mode, go to the stage in England. At the far right edge of the screen, you can see Dudley in the background reading a newspaper. Dudley was a British boxer from the Street Fighter 3 games.
