If you've ever watched Telemundo, or if you happen to be from any country that speaks spanish or any derivation thereof, you surely know of El Chavo del Ocho, a superfamous mexican TV comedy starring a goofy (and ancient) orphan. Well, some wacky brazilians have taken it upon themselves to turn the series into a digitized fighting game - Street Chaves (Chaves is the portugues-language name for El Chavo del Ocho). They use images of the actual characters from the show, chopping them up and animating them. You can also download animation, the music, etc...the actual game executable is the last link. I think you may need everything else too, if you want the full package. Funny stuff - this was created in 2003, but if it's news to me...

Thanks to the madman's cafe fellows for the link.

Update: apparently some of those links are dead. But a fellow named arturo found two alternate sources for download, if you're having trouble!
