Wow, never thought I'd find a discussion about Street Fighter canon.
Here's the whole shabang...because of not wanting to get sued by Mike Tyson(tho Simpsons havent been sued for 'Roderick Tatum'), and just other property changes when SF2 came to the US. The fascist looking dictator bad guy known as M. Bison is actually Vega. Vega just sounds cooler...but why Mike Bison? Well, because in Street Fighter One(1987) one of the characters was named Mike, a boxer who would later become Mike Bison(or M Bison) in Japan. But when SF2 came to the states he became Balrog. Balrog was originally the name of the masked Spanish fighter, who then became Vega. Vega became M. Bison, even though that makes no sesne as hes nothing like Mike tyson. So yeah, for over a decade a whole country oif players have been puzzled by this. As for the movie...anyone notice EVERY character from the SF2 games was either a millitary soldier or a reporter? Yikes!

Well it is one of those kind of movie that you can enjoy if you switch your brains off. There is no point in trying to find any sense in it.

Actually, the reason why Vega became M.Bison in the American/Worldwide except Japan version, was because Capcom of America feared a lawsuit if they named the boxer character M.Bison (because it closely resembles Mike Tyson, which the name was probably created for in the first place).
In my opinion, Balrog suits the Boxer better, as Balrog is too brutish a name for a graceful masked fighter from Spain. Then "Vega" became M.Bison, which is sorta weird, but it just grows on you after while, if ya catch my drift.

Super Mario Bros sucks no matter which way you look at it, and it's hard to believe anyone would like that trash. Then again, you are from Arlington Texas, and that explains a lot.
