* For Super II, all male characters sans Ryu and Dhalsim were given new K.O. voice clips. (And Ryu's voice [[VocalEvolution still had a slightly higher, more youthful pitch.]]) However, not only did Guile get the above mentioned helium "Sonic Boom!", but he also got the death scream of "OOO-AHH! OOO-AHH! OOO-AHH!" (sounds like RuPaul! RuPaul! RuPaul)

** Vega's normal speaking voice in the english dub is calm, low and haughty. Which makes it incredibly jarring when he suddenly switches to his classic high-pitched, screechy "AYAYAY" voice when doing attacks. Hell, it's not even consistent! For basic attacks he normally uses the classic voice, but occasionally he'll use the deeper voice instead, just for a simple grunt. It's as if he's constantly switching voice actors mid-fight.

* Any mention of the so-called "dark hado" is ''infested'' with narm, mostly caused by how silly it actually sounds - "ha-dough", and the whole clichéd, inherent {{Wangst}} of the main character Ryu "wrestlng with his dark side", like some sort of {{Emo}} teen.

* In ''Street Fighter 4'', when using the Mettsu Hadouken Ultra, an animation error makes Ryu extremely wall-eyed just as the move finishes.
* The DLC costumes SFIV can be souce of many, many laughs. [[TheChewToy Dan]], [[WildMan Blanka]] and [[BadassNative Thunder Hawk]] get some that make them look like the Pillar Men from ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure'', for crying it loud!
* Ryu's alternate costume in ''V'' has surprisingly caused narm for other fans. Looking like Chuck Norris is one reason, the other being that he's ''too fucking hot'' to take seriously.

* In Seth's battle intro in ''V'', he responds to "Doll Unit Zero active" by declaring "My name is Seth!" However, the way Creator/MichaelMcConnohie delivers his response sounds like he's casually introducing himself to his opponent instead of reinforcing his own identity.

** Not helping is the fact that the "Game Over" music plays directly after the picture of Ken and Eliza getting married, making it look as if it says that Ken's "life" is over, now that he's married (similar to a novelty T-Shirt).

* Super Street Fighter 4 has Sagat's ending. The ending itself is actually a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming, as it shows [[CharacterDevelopment how far Sagat has gone]] from being angry, despaired, and obsessed with revenge to happily walking with the children of his village and calling Ryu his "friend". Unfortunately, this is all undermined by the fact that Sagat looks as if he is '''[[OffModel ten feet taller than the children and adult with them]]'''.

** Sagat sounds abnormally high-pitched in the second set of games compared to the deeper voice later titles would give him. But then he starts spamming his projectile, and the result is him repeating, "Tiger- Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!" It's hard to tell whether you're supposed to laugh your ass off or be pissed at the cheap AI.
