Talk:Street Fighter II

Verification fails?
In § Impact, it says: "Its success inspired a wave of other fighting games, which were initially often labeled as "clones",[147][154] including popular franchises such as Mortal Kombat[155] and Killer Instinct." The [155] ref is an article in The New York Times. Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I think verification fails. The article does not state that the success of Street Fighter II inspired the Mortal Kombat franchise. I'm not saying it didn't, just that I think verification fails. Or am I overlooking something? --143.176.30.65 (talk) 10:43, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Why is Akuma mentioned in the article?
AFAIK he is not mentioned in the first 3 SF2 games. Apokrif (talk) 22:46, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
