Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
In the German release of the game, the color of the red blood in the international releases of the game was changed to green to tone down the game's violence.
Anita from the Darkstalkers series is a playable character exclusive to the Japanese version of the game. She was originally used only for testing purposes, but was soon added in the home console ports of the game. With the use of hacking tools, she can be playable in the U.S. version, although she lacks a name tag, quote, character portrait and ending, who instead borrows everything from Thanos.
In addition, Anita's moveset is glitchy and features other cameos such as Akuma from Super Street Fighter II Turbo, Mei Ling and Donovan from the Darkstalkers series. Most of her moves are direct knockoffs of Donovan's moves
Metal Gear Solid 4
During the briefing for the second act of the game, Sunny can be seen walking around playing Penguin Adventure, the first game Hideo Kojima ever worked on, on a PlayStation Portable. If the player gets close enough with the Metal Gear Mk. II, music from the game can be heard playing.
Ape Escape 2
A number of monkeys found throughout the game have names that parody celebrities and other famous characters. These include:
• Tomkey Kruise - Tom Cruise
• Balboa - Rocky Balboa
• Baboondini - Houdini
• Count Monkula - Count Dracula
• The Invisible Monkey - The Invisible Man
• Hyde - Mr. Hyde (Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde)
• Clint Apewood - Clint Eastwood
• Pelvis - Elvis
Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil
Famitsu's guidebook for Lunatea's Veil holds a development history section that lists Klonoa's entire redesign process. Early ideas consist of a Mickey Mouse-esque version of the character, an overalls outfit, and many different ear styles.
Mickey Mania
In Level 6 - The Prince and the Pauper, there's a skeleton wearing a Mickey Mouse hat near the end of the stage.
Soul Reaver and Soul Reaver 2 were going to be one game, but there wasn't enough time, money, or data for that, so they split it into two, hence Soul Reaver's cliffhanger ending and a lot of the cut elements for that game appearing in Soul Reaver 2 and Defiance.
Adachi was originally going to make another ninja character that was very similar to Hanzo Hattori's design. However, because his wife was a fan of the 1987 manga Animal Doctor, he wanted to make a character that would be popular with the female market. Galford's character was inspired by the main character, Masaki Nishine, and his pet Siberian Husky, Chobi.
In December 2017, Capcom released a free content update for Dead Rising 4 called "Capcom Heroes", giving players 17 new outfits based on Capcom's video game franchises, each with their own attributes. This mode includes a Sissel costume, and allows the main character, Frank West, to possess everyday objects and use them to attack enemies.
Joe & Mac (SNES)
In the SNES version of the game, when the credits scroll pauses on "SOUND CREATOR ATOMIC HANADA", the game checks if X/A/L/R are all being held. If they are, the game shows an alternate ending sequence featuring Joe and Mac being chased away by four ugly cavewomen.
Durante il prosieguo dell’avventura sarà possibile rinvenire delle buste nascoste in varie aree che consentiranno di attivare degli speciali trucchi quando il gioco verrà portato a termine con successo e si incomincerà una nuova partita, (tra questi possiamo ricordare la possibilità di renderci invisibili, di raddoppiare i danni inflitti ai nemici o ricaricare, all’occorrenza, tutta la nostra barra di energia).
Before being changed to Metroid, the game was going to be named Space Hunter. Also, Space Hunter was used as Samus' title instead of Bounty Hunter in the original game manual. There wasn't enough time left in development to change the occupation, so Space Hunter was left in the original Instruction Manual.
