Another thing most fighting games "suffer" from (makes for a more interesting/difficult arcade mode, but is still funny to think about):

Why is every level something where two world class athletes are fighting atop a park bench? Or in a public bathroom? Or in front of some drunk Chinese dude at 3 o'clock in the morning.
You do know the game is called STREET Fighter right?

I was going to say this.^^

But yeah, it is kind of weird to have this great giant "impromptu" tournament.
Zangief is working at the factory and is all "Huh, Ryu just showed up?, Well bring him in, let's get this thing on."
random worker: "shouldn't we wait for some officials or something?"
Zangief: "Nah, I'd like to kick his a$$ right now."
"Somebody turn up that funky music"

"Round 1...Fight"
Who is the announcer guy that travels around to all these places anyways.

And who is it that makes sure Cody always has a knife handy before each and every fight? A corrupt judge?
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Maybe there is a giant audience, they're just always located behind the player's perspective, so we never see them. And they're very well mannered and quiet. Except for the drunken Chinese guy that got on the wrong side.
