I just view the genre differently then. I'm not worried about what the match means for the character or his/her traits.
I could care less about that aspect of it. I am playing to beat a friend or the computer and satisfy the competitive drive within me.
I will choose a character based on how good they are, not their backstory going into a 3 round slobberknocker.

I could care less why the worlds of Mortal Kombat and DC are coming together, or Marvel and Capcom, or various video game characters in Smash Bros.
I see it as them all being in the same game because it's a cool novelty that will please the masses, and as a result sell a lot of video games.

If people enjoy the storylines, that's fine but I personally don't see the need for them at all. Fighting/racing/sports games are a whole different thing to me than single player adventure games.
