Yo
about the "Major Bison" reference
His original name (In Japan) was Balrog. The boxer character was named "M. Bison" as a knockoff of "M. Tyson", otherwise known as Mike Tyson.
When the game was released in America, Tyson's people didn't like the fact that their guy had been recreated in a video game without permission, so they changed Balrog and M. Bison's names around.
Tyson couldn't call them on recreating his likeness since he doesn't wear a cape and uniform NOR does he have fists of fire.
So it stuck.

Here's another fun nintendo fact!
Did you know that Super Mario Bros. 2 is actually a Japanese game titled Doki Doki 2 (i believe thats the name at least...its been a while)? They just switched some character models up and it was set to go. The Japanese thought that the REAL Super Mario Bros. 2 would be too difficult for our feeble American minds, so it was only released in Japan... until the debut of Super Mario All-Stars on the SNES. The "Lost Levels" found in that game are the true sequel to the original Mario Bros. game.

while the lost levels are hard, they certainly are only mario one with a bunch of new hard levels. nothing new in terms of graphics or gameplay. the chinese suck.
