Differenze fra versioni

Kanbei was changed from the Japanese to English release, and his change is probably the most striking - he was changed from what looks like a traditional Samurai to more of a World War 2 era Japanese general, losing the ponytail and samurai armor. The sword is kept, though.

Certe volte è meglio non strafare

The zombies that appear in the towns during night were originally going to be 'Chinese Jiangshi' that could hop, due to their popularity at the time. The hopping move was removed after complaints that the enemies were too strong.

Passione per gli Arcade:

Americans' obsession with video games peaked in 1981 – with Time Magazine reports stating they spent a whopping sum of $20 billion on arcade games alone. And that’s twice the income of casino pokies and lovers in Nevada.

The LEGEND

It's possible to find a secret flower in a pit, which when collected, gives E.T. an extra life. However, collecting 7 Recess Pieces, giving them to Elliot, collecting all three phone pieces, then finally locating and reviving the flower will cause it to transform into Yars from Yar's Revenge who will then fly away. Completing the game and then completing this process again will cause the flower to transform into Indiana Jones from Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. Completing the game for a third time and completing the process will cause the initials of Howard Scott Warshaw, who programmed all 3 of the games, to appear at the bottom of the screen.

Questa è famosa:

Originally, during the Megaman design, the character's name was the "Rock Man" in Japan. However, when it came to the U.S., the gaming society censored the name. As at that time, the term "Rock" was mainly slang for crack cocaine; hence, the change.

Certe cose prima o poi vengono riprese

In Heihachi Mishima's stage, Pagoda Temple, the name of Heihachi's wife, Kazumi, can be seen carved into the floor. With the exception of Tekken: The Motion Picture, her existence in the Tekken universe was not made relevant until Tekken 7, in which she appears as a playable character and her character's lore is expanded upon.

Il Sig. Mario Rossi? No, Mario Mario:

Some would believe Mario doesn't have the last name; however, he does. Since they are both tagged as the “Mario Bros,” it is fair to assume they are Luigi Mario and Mario Mario.

Un bel approfondimento su un tema di cui si parla sempre molto poco in modo serie, questa volta concentrandosi su una singola console.

L'easter egg che non ti aspetti

The design of the "Polyrobo", a robot used to test how well the Half-Life engine could take high polygon, bone-based animations, is based on the Regult BattlePod from the anime Super Dimension Fortress Macross.

Questa immagino l'abbiano notata in parecchi

On the Ground stage of The Lightning Chariot, there is a room in which Pit must use jump pads to get over a number of rolling spheres. Pit says that it looks familiar, while Hades says, "I guess the Chariot Master has played Donkey Kong."

Al epoca l'avevo notata

In Grunty Industries, there is a small chance that when going to the Worker Quarters, the player can spot light emanating out of a restroom where a worker rabbit can be heard taking a rather huge "dump".
