• Franchise Killer: Streetwise sold and reviewed poorly, spelling an end to Final Fight as a stand-alone franchise. Some of the more popular characters (Guy, Cody, Haggar, Maki, Poison, Rolento, etc.) began making appearances in the Street Fighter series as early as Street Fighter Alpha.
• Port Overdosed: In close competition with Double Dragon for the title of "most-ported beat 'em up ever". Almost every contemporary home computer and console had a version, and Capcom has frequently re-released it since then, too.
• Urban Legend of Zelda: Final Fight: Streetwise's poor sales is the reason Capcom Studio 8 was shut down.
• What Could Have Been:
  • Vanessa was supposed to be a playable character in the story mode of Streetwise.
  • The first game was orginally going to a sequel of the original Street Fighter titled Street Fighter '89. The reaction from the audience noted how different it was from the previous game, and was renamed.
  • Poison was supposed to be included in Streetwise.
  • Sodom was slated for an appearance in Streetwise. Concept art shows him sporting a more modernized version of his attire (namely ragged jeans).
  • The developers of Streetwise are said to have wanted to do a modern game in the style of the original games, only changing it at Capcom of America's insistence to make it more like Grand Theft Auto.
  • According to Seth Killian (at the start of the video), Rolento was initially going to be called Lawrence.
