* CriticalResearchFailure: Blanka's backstory is that he was a boy named Jimmy who fell from a plane and landed on the Brazilian part of the Amazon. He named himself Blanka after hearing two natives speaking the '''''spanish''''' word "blanca." The catch is that Brazilian natives speak '''''portuguese''''', not spanish.

While it's not really bad when it comes to most [[ShipToShipCombat shipping wars]], it has caused a bit of varied mileages in the fandom. The ''Street Fighter'' anime from the '90s (and to a lesser extent the manga) have helped Ryu, Ken, and Guile in this regard. Though while they are only good friends in the series one of the reasons why Ryu is fairly popular in this regard is that unlike the other 3 men mentioned here Ryu is the only one whose still alive and not HappilyMarried.

* DeaderThanDisco: ''Super Turbo'' originally had a large, thriving competitive community lasting since its release in 1994. But in 2008, the ''HD Remix'' version was released, causing the competitive community to descend into a massive civil war amongst themselves over which version should be the tournament standard. The conflict caused both old and newer players to RageQuit the competitive scene, and both versions eventually stopped appearing at major fighting game events. Classic ''Super Turbo''[='=]s competitive scene ultimately lived longer, but it will likely never have its thriving community ever again.
