Thanks for the help everybody. Looks like I'll be hunting down an american copy of AC.

Perhaps I should be a little more specific. I actually visit a local arcade once in a while that has GGXX: AC (well last time I went, anyways), and would like to get good enough to at least put up a fight next time I go. So with that in mind, should I just get the PS2 port of AC, since it's more arcade perfect? Also, which game is used at console tournaments?

Thanks for the quick reply, but I asked the question to get a more specific answer. Which one is preferred, AC or AC+? And why?

Hey everyone, complete newbie to GG here and so I have a few questions if you don’t mind. I come from a Street Fighter background (3S & 4) and was recently at a friend’s house where I finally took the plunge and tried out some GGXX. And I must say, that game is HYPE. Now I’m really looking to pick it up and learn it, which leads me to my questions: Which version should I pick up, AC or AC+? Which version is the tournament standard? Are there any gameplay differences between the two versions, besides the added 2 characters in AC+ (who I think are banned from serious play anyways)? Is the PS2 port of AC arcade perfect? My confusion stems from the fact that in Japan, they play AC in arcades, but AC+ is the newer version of the game, so I don’t know which is considered the “proper” version. I plan on buying the game so I want to know which one to get, although I'm currently leaning towards AC. Sorry if these have been answered before, but I'm really excited to start playing and learning the game more thoroughly. Street Fighter 4 has become very boring to me compared to 3S so I'm looking to try new games, and GGXX seems right up my alley.
