Overview
Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition is a 2D sci-fi superhero fighting game developed by Natsume and published by Bandai for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in both North America and Europe on September 1995.
A fighting game adaptation of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers live-action superhero television series, Fighting Edition focuses solely on the series' giant mecha/monster fights and features both Zords and villains from the series' second and third seasons (as well as the first original film).
The game engine would later be re-purposed less than a year later for Shin Kidou Senki Gundam Wing: Endless Duel.
Gameplay
Power Rangers: The Fighting Edition is a four button game; each character has two punches (light and heavy) and two weapons (light and heavy). In conjunction with the D-pad, players can execute throws and special moves. The game also has a Power Meter that periodically fills up. If a player executes a special move when the meter is full, they will gain a power level, eventually gaining the ability to do their character's super move when the gauge displays a thunderbolt.
