Picture
I think it'd be better if we used a picture of Homestar Runner Hurricane Kicking Strong Sad from dangeresque 3, with the caption "The pipes are broken!". It's a much better reference but I can't find such an image on the wiki. – The Chort 21:08, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- What about a picture of flaming poopsmith? i'll get one... hang on. — Defender1031*Talk 21:12, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- So after actually watching it, it's not such a good picture, so yeah... no dice... — Defender1031*Talk 21:27, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- I tried The Chort's idea. How's it look now? Homestar-Winner (talk) 21:53, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- I think the M.Bison pic was better suited, myself. -DAGRON 03:05, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- My suggestion was on the basis that it was a more recognisable reference, even to non-fans of Street Fighter. I have never played any of the games but got the Hurrican Kick reference from dangeresque 3 more quickly than the The Poopsmith's M. Bison costume from 3 Times Halloween Funjob. I always mistake that costume for Robocop. I have, however, added a link to the previous image on the article. – The Chort 17:18, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
- Really? The costume doesn't really look anything like Robocop, though, does it? Anyway, I was the opposite, in that I've played the games, but I didn't recognize the direct reference until I saw it noted on the wiki (about the hurricane kick), so I would think M.Bison is more recognisable. -DAGRON 01:40, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Nintendo
Regarding this edit removing the Nintendo Category:
- When Street Fighter II came out in 1991, it was released for the arcade as well as Super Nintendo. While it was common to play the arcade version occasionally, players spent most of their time playing it on the SNES. I'm sure this is a version that TBC are intimately familiar with.
I see no reason why this game isn't unrelated to the Nintendo Category. This is the reason why I've partially unreverted the partial rv. If there is reason to permanently remove it, please discuss here. --Stux 04:01, 3 July 2025 (UTC)
