Attachment In the Japanese release, due to the CERO rating system restricting certain graphic elements from appearing in games released in the country even with the highest rating of CERO-Z, a cutscene of Boozer getting his arm burnt with a blowtorch by the Rippers was altered by shifting the camera angle of the scene towards Boozer's face to imply he is getting burnt off-screen.

In a 2019 "ESPN Esports" video/interview between ESPN commentator Arda Ocal & professional boxer Mike Tyson, Ocal asked him about Balrog (who made his first appearance in Street Fighter II under the name M. Bison, but had his name changed to Balrog in the English localization due to the close similarities to "M. Tyson") and if he knew about the game and his influence on Balrog's character design. Tyson responded that he knew nothing about either Street Fighter or Balrog, but that he was honored by Capcom's impersonation of him upon seeing it for the first time.

Attachment In the original Wii version, the river overpass in Santa Destroy has a wall underneath it with poor-enough collision detection that if you walk into it in a certain way, Travis will clip through the wall and can walk infinitely directly underneath Santa Destroy, even out of the city. This glitch was fixed in all future re-releases of the game.

There are Warp Pipes that can be found within the game's first and fourth chapters that strikingly resemble the Warp Pipes from the Mario series. Upon entering either Pipe, there will be a secret room with three more Warp Pipes along with 8-bit music playing in the background, which resembles the Warp Zone from World 1-2 in Super Mario Bros. Upon entering any of the three Pipes, they will warp the player to certain chapters within the game. Furthermore, finding all six buttons within the first chapter without the use of cheat codes will reveal a rainbow bridge that resembles the Rainbow Road track from the Mario Kart series that leads to a blue Warp Pipe, which takes the player to the secret room.

The second Warp Pipe is inaccessible in the PC version due to the switch used to access it not working; whether or not this inaccessibility was an intentional choice by the developers or a glitch is unknown.

Most likely because this game was released as a launch title for the Xbox, it was released in an incomplete state in the North American market in November 2001. As such, the European and Japanese versions of the game, which released a few months later, feature a new opening cutscene as well as extra content and gameplay updates such as new costumes and attacks for certain characters. Between June and September 2002, the Official Xbox Magazine distributed a "Booster Disk" for Dead or Alive 3, which included the new opening cutscene and all of the extra costumes released in the European and Japanese versions of the game. It did not, however, contain the new attacks or gameplay balancing that the other versions brought. This update would later be released as unlockable sync-able content under the name "DOA3 Booster Disc" in Dead or Alive Ultimate upon unlocking every costume in the game.

The PlayStation port of the game has extra features that were not in the original Japanese version, such a level select and an improved English translation, which was one of the biggest issues from the Neo Geo version. The port also fixed areas of slowdown, the lower-quality graphics from previous versions, and missing frames of animation.

In the English localization of the game, when Ocelot and Liquid Snake discuss their demands to the president, Ocelot states their demands as including "1 billion dollars" for both the original PlayStation/PC release and the GameCube remake. In the original Japanese release of the PlayStation/PC version, he states it as "50 million dollars". However, for the Japanese release of the GameCube remake, there is no dub of the game's voice lines in Japanese, while the subtitles translated to Japanese still say "1 billion dollars". Whether or not "1 billion dollars" or "50 million dollars" is a mistake in the game's script or was changed for future releases of the game is unknown.

When designing the DLC character Steve from Minecraft, most of the game's stages were redesigned to accommodate for his Mine neutral special move which allows him to farm certain materials on stage-specific surfaces to then use to craft stronger weapons. However, not every surface has been programmed to mine the materials expected to appear from the surface Steve is standing on. The most notable example of this occurs on most of the trees in the game, where they can produce Dirt materials instead of Wood.

According to Sakurai in a Famitsu column, Sephiroth's inclusion as DLC in this game was his attempt to include more villains and/or bosses into the series as fighters, stating that the inclusion of such characters as playable was "rare". For one reason or another, he felt Final Fantasy VII's lead antagonist was an appropriate choice for this. He also stated that his game developing philosophy for these types of characters was that he wanted them to "feel like bosses" when playing as or against them.

The announcement of a Wii version of Just Dance 2020 was met with confusion from some fans as to why an eighth generation game would be released on a discontinued console, speculating that it was because hospitals and rehabilitation centers still used the Wii for physical therapy and recreation, with Just Dance being a popular series for those purposes. However, Ubisoft released an official statement in response to the speculation that claimed that "it would be inaccurate to say that Just Dance is available on the Wii solely because it’s developed for physical therapy purposes" and that "a lot of our players are children and families who continue to play on Wii."

Sakurai and his team originally had different plans for a Xenoblade Chronicles 2 DLC character. He tried to include Rex as a playable character alongside Pyra, at first thinking of an Ice Climbers-like system where the player would control both characters at the same time, but this ended up presenting programming problems including one involving the game's memory capacity due to the size of the characters. He then had an idea of making Rex a background character whenever Pyra fights, in a similar manner to the Pokémon Trainer. He eventually felt this second method would also be taxing to the game and that fans would not be fond of it anyway so it was scrapped. He then came up with the idea to have Pyra be a transforming character (similar to how Zelda and Shiek were before Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U) with her turning into Mythra and additionally have Rex appear only in taunts, Final Smashes, and other extraneous details involving the characters.
