Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex

During development it would appear that in part of the level "Crash & Burn", Crash would have had to save Coco from a hanging cage. Even though this task was removed from the final game, the cage is still present in the finished level, although Coco was replaced with a skeleton.
 
Piccole differenze

When Gold Li'l-Oinks leave the farm in the Japanese game, they drop Jelly Shrooms (restores 5 HP and 50 FP). In the U.S. version, Gold Li'l-Oinks drop Ultra Shrooms (restores 50 HP). This gives you a way to collect an unlimited amount of Ultra Shrooms, whereas you can only find five Ultra Shrooms total in the Japanese version.
 
Un Batman per ogni stagione



Batman: The Animated Series is a side-scrolling action game by Konami released for the Game Boy in 1993 based on the TV series of the same title. A Super NES version was also planned, but the game was ultimately released under the title The Adventures of Batman & Robin due to the show undergoing a title change between seasons.

Donkey Kong Country Returns

In 7-R, "Lift-Off Launch", there is a large gyroscope with three spinning rings around a core; this is a reference to the Main Dynamo present in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.
 
Censura perbenista

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.
 
Una Kaine più elegante:

NieR

During concepting phases, Kaine was at one point planned to be more elegant and dressed modestly, and she would wield one of the dropped tomes, Grimoire Schwarz. There were also concepts of a younger Kaine.
 
Si ma almeno Capcom se ne ricorda, al contrario di altre serie...

There are significant lengths of time between each Ghosts 'n Goblins game, though Gargoyle's Quest and Maximo were released in-between them. The longest break for the series and its spinoffs has been the 11-year gap between Gold Knights II and Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection (15 years if you don't count the mobile games, since Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins was released in 2006).
 
Sarebbe diventato IL franchise, altro che scherzi

PlatinumGames (Yes, THAT Platinum Games) was interested in buying the franchise after the IP was up for auction.
 
Ai giapponesi piace più facile:

Ristar

The miniboss of Planet Sonata, known as Neuos in Japan, is easier in the Japanese release. Before the bird heads fall down, a musical note will appear on their forehead to show the player which one they're supposed to attack. In the international release, the developers removed the musical notes.
 
Canzoni molto specifiche

The five songs Sheik plays while doing a strong attack is the "Serenade of Water", "Bolero of Fire", "Song of Storm", "Nocturne of Shadows", and "Prelude of Light" from Orarina of Time.

There are three inaccessible rooms in the game's code. All of these rooms are in Norfair, and are copies of other rooms in the game.
 
Fruitmeister II:

Spot Goes to Hollywood

If you enters password PROGRESS and then the cheat code A, Right, Down, B, Left, Up, B, B, A in Spot Goes to Hollywood's pause screen, you will unlock a minigame called FRUITMEISTER 2, a slot machine game using developers' heads. There is no reward for winning the game (something cheekily acknowledged in-game with the caption "win a prize or something - probably"). A first FRUITMEISTER minigame is not currently known to exist in any other Eurocom game.

As revealed by Matt McMuscles, High Moon Studios was working on a sequel around the time they were working on The Bourne Conspiracy, but then Activision purchased Vivendi Universal Games and merged with them to form Activision-Blizzard and they promptly shut down development to have them instead work on Transformers videogames, and nothing has come of Darkwatch ever since.
 
Il misterioso Yagyu:

Virtua Fighter

Hidden within the game's data is a select screen graphic for the name Yagyu, which was an early name for Kage during development.
 
Diablo ma non del tutto

The game's combat, character and equipment upgrade system is almost identical to one used in Diablo, although it is more story-heavy and includes dialogue trees.
 
Un piacevole errore di programmazione:

Okami

Once Orochi is defeated on the PlayStation 2 version, a crescent moon comes out in Shinshu Field. However, a full moon comes out in the Japanese version due to a programming mistake.
 
Il famoso joke ending

IQlx9JL.jpeg


After your ship is wrecked, you can convince your party members to stay on the island and live there. If you keep telling them it's a good idea, eventually they will agree, and you'll be in an endless loop of gathering items every day. All of the characters portraits will also change into badly drawn black and white pictures, too.
