They didn't, they used a sprite with a single pixel to hack together a visual tweak (that just happens to be part of Guile's leg).

But watch the video anyway. Despite the clickbaity thumbnail (blame Google) it's a passable account of an example of having to fix a visual bug in code after an asset lock because of how the production process of old games was structured.

The thumbnail is created by the video uploader, not google, but yeah, they do incentivise click bait thumbnails...

I mean, the whole video should be three images and a paragraph to begin with. Entire thing's engagement bait
