The Quintet quiz is inaccessible in all non-Japanese versions, though most versions still have text pertaining to it in its code. There is also a test room, and a removed building from Suncoast, and unused interiors for Storkholm.
 
Non lo sapremo mai:

Paper Mario

At the Toad Town train station, there is a blue Toad who tells Mario that after he defeats Bowser and restores peace to the Mushroom Kingdom, he has something else he wants to tell him. However, no such event can be triggered as it's impossible to access the train station after defeating Bowser, making the line pointless as you cannot talk to him again. It's possible that this was meant to be part of content found in the post-game, but was cut during development.
 
Una strana storia

The titles of the Demon's Crest tracks on the 20th anniversary soundtrack collection for the Ghosts 'n Goblins series were created by a western fan of the game. It's not clear if Capcom knew the track titles were unofficial when they used them for the soundtrack.
 
Un ottimo tie in

The Two Towers received a generally positive response, with critics praising the re-creation of sets and scenes from the films, and the epic scope of some of the battles. Some, however, criticized the game for being too short and the combat overly repetitive. The game was a financial success, selling almost four million units, and outselling Vivendi's The Fellowship of the Ring game, which sold just over one millio

Crash Bandicoot

Back when the game was still known as "Willie the Wombat", Mark Cerny had commissioned Hanna-Barbera to help give out some ideas and suggestions on what Willie would look like. The aforementioned task was given to an employee of the studio at the time named Butch Hartman, who went on to create a slew of animated series for the children's television network Nickelodeon.

Mathis Cronqvist is most likely named after Matthias Corvinus, the Hungarian king who was a tentative ally of Vlad Tepes', and once had him imprisoned in a royal tower.

Beating the game unlocks Albus Mode, which allows you to play as another character from the game named Albus. He cannot access the menu and has his own abilities, different from those of the main character, Shanoa.

According to the game's instruction manual, Sketch Turner enjoys playing Sonic Spinball on his days off, another Sonic game developed by Sega.
 
Due Leader

The original game (and to an extent, Underground) for the PlayStation eventually become the leaders for several low-budget (some of them borderline mediocre) FPS games in the early 2000s, all of them set in the Second World War where the player gets to shoot generic Germans for around an hour before deciding to stop playing altogether
 
Un aggiornamento della formula classica:

Bravely Default

When the project first got started it was a very standard RPG akin to Final Fantasy III or Final Fantasy V, but the concern was it wouldn't be a good decision for a new IP like Bravely Default was intended to be. With the battle points system, Nakahara felt like it had the chance to turn the whole game around.
 
Un bonus mantenuto

In Stage 5 of Castlevania: Rondo of Blood, there is a secret passageway that can only be accessed by Maria. It leads to a white object resembling a mirror or doorway that cannot be interacted with. In the PSP remake, a Soundtrack item can be found here.
 
Hint

During the second cutscene, Qwark's recording mentions pressing 1 if being attacked by radioactive amoeboids. This is a reference to Blackwater City in Ratchet & Clank, and the Qwark Vid-Comic in Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal, when amoeboids attacked Blackwater City.
 
Meglio Syphon comunque:

Syphon Filter

Syphon Filter runs on a modified version of the Bubsy 3D game engine.
 
Kupo?:

Final Fantasy X

Lulu's starting weapon, a Moogle Doll, is the only appearance of a Moogle in the game, a massive difference from all previous titles in the series. Her other weapons are references to previous characters in the series, including her final weapon of the Onion Knights from Final Fantasy III.
 
Little Glitch

At one stage, it was possible to re-visit the Sorceress' Lair. Due to a glitch, it is sometimes possible to view this option when using a pirated or emulated copy of the game.
 
Allegro o serio?

Kid Icarus Uprising

The Japanese cover art has Pit with his mouth open and smiling, but on the English cover art his face is serious. This is also a common trait of Kirby games, another franchise also created by Masahiro Sakurai.
