Loghi

Like Battle Network 4, each region has a different logo and title screens. The Japanese and North American logos are notably similar, but the European logos follow the style of the previous games released in the region.

Still in the data

3 unused Servbot Faces can be found in the game's data. They appear to be based on the anime characters Kinnikuman from Kinnikuman, Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, and Odate-Buta from Yatterman.

Il fotografo:

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX

One of the major additions to Link's Awakening DX is the photographer. On the screen where the photographer would be in the original version, there is simply an empty field with a single Moblin wandering around.

Fra l'altro al epoca Fire Emblem era pressoché sconosciuto in occidente

Paris:

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance

In the beta version of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, Ike was known as Paris. Priam, a character from Fire Emblem: Awakening, claims to be a descendant of Ike and his Japanese name is Paris.

Paris:

Meno male che gliel'hanno cambiato.
E al limite Paris va bene per una femmina.

Back from retirement

Red Saber is the role that really brought Sakura Tange back into the spotlight after her ten-year absence from acting; for the entire decade, across both EXTRA games, Fate/Grand Order and a whole bunch of little spinoffs and whatnot, it was the role she played most consistently in the 2010s.

Tanti bei concept scartati...

The art book has Concept Art for many characters, notably however are more than a dozen potential forms for Trillion that went unused with only one that resembles anything in the game itself.

Un successo

The game is the first in the Deception series. It was a critical success, with reviewers particularly praising the originality of the game's concept.

Versioni differenti:

Metroid Fusion

Metroid Fusion is one of only a few Game Boy Advance games to have a save battery through an SRAM chip in its cartridge, though this would only appear in earlier-produced carts, as the SRAM chip was scrapped from use halfway through production in favor of a battery-free EPROM chip.

Una sorta di mascotte

The silent protagonist. Millennia can be renamed if the player desires, but this is considered her canon name. She is likely the most recognizable of Deception characters, as she’s appeared in other Tecmo games.

Questa è solo una delle tante reference

Dragon's Crown's character select screen is almost identical to the one in Capcom's Dungeons & Dragons: Tower of Doom. George Kamitani, the director of Dragon's Crown, worked as one of the designers on Tower of Doom, so this most likely is an homage to his earlier work.

Un capostipite

The game spawned three sequels, Back to Hell and Bioterror (both in 2004, also for the Play Station and GBA) and Fire for Effect (2005, for PC and all sixth-generation consoles except for Nintendo Gamecube).

Un mostro dal design "cool":

Silent Hill 2

Masahiro Ito, who designed the monsters for the game, said that he was inspired to create the Lying Figure when he saw a coworker walking toward him from a distance. The coworker was wearing a sweatshirt with a hood and had his hands in his pockets. He was listening to his Walkman and was walking in a "cool way."

Portatore di cambiamento

According to Phil Sandhop, the script writer for the unpublished English release of Mother, the process of localizing the game motivated Nintendo to design games with an international audience in mind, to minimize localization efforts in the future.

Il canto del cigno di Cing

Last Window è stato l'ultimo gioco sviluppato da Cing prima che la società dichiarasse bancarotta il 1° marzo 2010.

Messaggi nascosti:

Rayman 2

In the Nintendo 64 version of the game, in the cutscene during the Iron Mountains level where Rayman is riding the hot air balloon, repeatedly mashing the Z button before Rayman jumps off will cause one of two different hidden messages to appear:
•ALWAYS BET ON DUKE !
•COME GET SOME !
These are both references to Duke Nukem.

Messaggi nascosti:

Ma che figata sta cosa.

Not in the final game

In the Japanese version of the game, leaving the intro to play twice will show BlackWarGreymon in the introduction. He does not show up in the actual game, however.

Il fandom ha vinto

The Officially Shortened Title was originally WEWY, which the fanbase near-universally ignored, preferring TWEWY. Solo Remix acknowledged this by renaming a few post-game threads that used the abbreviation. It was finally crystallized when the anime project was announced and the production company was revealed to be TWEWY Project.
