Final Fight/YMMV


 * Awesome Music: The soundtrack of Final Fight CD, composed by T's Music. The Industrial Area's BGM, for example.
 * Complete Monster: Blades and Famine from Streetwise.
 * Die for Our Ship: Due to Guy being shipped with both Rose and Ibuki as of Super Street Fighter IV, Rena, a very minor character, is now a major victim of this.
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: Most of the mooks in the series have their fans thanks to their memorable character designs:
 * Poison. Fans wanted her to cross to the Street Fighter series so badly, they kept asking producers to put her in the games. In Street Fighter X Tekken and Ultra Street Fighter IV, they finally got their wish.
 * Rolento, who is playable in the Street Fighter Alpha series and in Ultra Street Fighter IV.
 * Hugo, who would be Final Fights answer to Double Dragons Abobo. The fact that he resembles André the Giant helps. He eventually got Promoted to Playable in Street Fighter III 2nd Impact.
 * Epileptic Trees: Thanks to an official artwork of Lucia doing aerobics with Chun-Li, the fact that both are detectives, and the resemblance of her moves to Chun-Li's signature Hyakuretsu Kyaku, it's been implied that Lucia may have trained under Chun-Li or is even friends with her.
 * Excuse Plot:
 * Final Fight: The mayor's daughter is kidnapped by a gang. The mayor, an already retired pro wrestler, enlists his daughter's boyfriend and his friend, and kick ass and take names.
 * Final Fight 2: The mayor's friend's fiancee and master were kidnapped by another gang, and he's joined by his friend's future sister-in-law and a martial artist. They kick ass and take names.
 * Final Fight 3: A gang war erupts in the city. The mayor's friend is back, and they're joined by a cop and a mysterious drifter out for revenge. They kick ass and take names.
 * Fanon: There is official artwork of Lucia doing aerobics with Chun-Li. Both are police officers, and Lucia's kick is similar to Chun-Li's signature Hyakuretsu Kyaku. This has led to speculation that Lucia may be friends with Chun-Li or, at the very least, trained in her fighting style.
 * Fanon Discontinuity: Streetwise, an attempt to capitalize on the Grand Theft Auto craze, was poorly received by fans and critics, and the series was discontinued itself. It, however, doesn't stop fans from using Cody's full name from said game. It now seems to have become Canon Discontinuity as of Street Fighter V, with only Kyle and possibly Vanessa, who's only mentioned as "his girlfriend", being acknowledged.
 * First Installment Wins: Although Final Fight did become a trilogy that introduced new characters with each installment, the very first game is the only one that Capcom seems to pay any attention to these days:
 * Haggar has made one crossover appearance as well as several cameos outside of Final Fight 1, while Cody and Guy have become semi-regular staples of the Street Fighter franchise since the Alpha trilogy. Maki's only major appearances outside of Final Fight 2 were in Capcom vs. SNK 2 and the handheld versions of Street Fighter Alpha 3, while the closest that Carlos received was a brief cameo in Capcom Fighting Evolution. Lucia and Dean have yet to show up anywhere outside of Final Fight 3.
 * The Mad Gear Gang is supposedly large enough to have at least two different sets of thugs, but only the first incarnation's members have been seen or referenced outside of the trilogy. The Skull Cross Gang appears to have been forgotten completely.
 * The first installment is the only part of the trilogy that has ever been ported to multiple consoles, including one handheld system. The later two sequels have remained exclusive to the SNES and the Virtual Console.
 * Game-Breaker: Final Fight 1 has Street Fighter Alpha versions of Guy and Cody to unlock. While not that much different, their stats are tweaked compared to the originals. Alpha Guy still has the same speed and attack power, but takes far less damage from most attacks. Alpha Cody on the other hand while he has the same speed, he takes a bit less damage than normal and dishes out far more damage. Either one will make the game pretty trivial.
 * Good Bad Bugs: You can force Edi.E to go it alone by not scrolling to the end of the stage. Makes the fight with him almost too easy.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight:
 * Mike Haggar... a former pro wrestler? Elected mayor? What's next, Governor?
 * In 2016, Kane mentioned that he's thinking about running for the Knox County mayoral seat after retiring from pro wrestling.
 * Launcher of a Thousand Ships: Although Guy is canonically married to Rena, he was paired with Maki (Rena's younger sister and Guy's rival for the Bushin-ryu succession) Rose, and Ibuki, among others.
 * Magnificent Bastard: Father Bella.
 * Memetic Badass: Mike Haggar. He will personally punch each and every criminal in the face. Marvel vs. Capcom 3 takes this to new levels: The manliest PRESIDENT.
 * Nightmare Fuel: Pestilence.
 * Porting Disaster: The SNES port of the first game was a borderline case. In terms of sound and graphics it was very close to what the arcade game offered (some even prefer the SNES soundtrack over the arcade original, which used rather harsh instrumentation). On the other hand, Guy (or Cody, depending on the version) was missing in action, there was no two-player mode, one of the levels was left out, and there were generally fewer enemies on the screen at any given time than there were in the arcade version, which messed up the game's balance somewhat. The bowdlerization didn't really help either.
 * That One Boss: Abigail.
 * The Woobie: Vanessa,.
