There is a glitch in the PAL version, that is not present in the American/Japanese versions.

Finishing a mission between 00'50"00-00'59"99 and 01'50"00-01'59"99, removes 50 seconds from the timer, giving the player an impression that they finished the mission faster.

▼
The Bokujō Monogatari series, as it's originally known in Japan, which translates to "Farm Story", was known in the West as Harvest Moon up until 2014 where it was changed to Story of Seasons. This was because Western localization of the series was handed over to XSEED, a subsidiary of Marvelous AQL who owns Bokujō Monogatari, instead of to Natsume, who had been localizing the series in the West since the very first title. Because Natsume owned the trademark for Harvest Moon and not Marvellous, Natsume decided to create their own series of original games under the Harvest Moon name, prompting XSEED to rename the Bokujō Monogatari series in the West to Story of Seasons.

Attachment Steam: Rails to Riches, along with Acram Digital's other title Eight-Minute Empire, were removed by Valve from the digital distribution service Steam after it was discovered that Grzegorz Kubas, a staff member of Acram, had been leaving positive reviews on their game's Steam pages. In a statement from Valve in regards to Acram they said "we have removed all games/DLC developed by Acram from our store, and will no longer be doing business with [them]."

Kubas later published a post on reddit apologizing for the situation and claimed the reason he did it was in spite of some "bad, unfair reviews".

Attachment A mother from Gilber, AZ started a grass-roots campaign in 1996 (2 years after the game's initial release) that resulted in the game being pulled from various stores nationwide. The controversy started when her 11-year old son executed Chaos' "Golden Shower" fatality in which Chaos finishes his opponent off by urinating on them.

Time Warner Interactive, the publisher of the game, dismissed the claim because the mother went straight to the media and not to them or the developer Atari. They proved their point when they re-submitted the game to the ESRB board for another rating, but the board stuck to it's original "T" (Teen) rating and called the mother out for letting her 11-year old play a game that rated above his age.

Attachment In an interview, Tetsuya Nomura stated that he envisioned Cloud and Sephiroth's relationship to be like that of Musashi Miyamoto and Sasaki Kojiro. This influenced not only their appearances, but also the appearances of their swords.

"For me, it’s of course Cloud and Sephiroth. My concept for Sephiroth from the beginning was that everything about him would be kakkoii. His battle movements, and all his in-game scenes too. My image of the relationship between Cloud AND Sephiroth was that of Musashi Miyamoto and Sasaki Kojiro, and I had them in mind when I designed their appearance, as well as their swords. Of course Cloud is Musashi, and Sephiroth is Kojiro."
