In Baseball, when stepping on the home plate after getting a home run, Birdo, Daisy, Waluigi, Diddy Kong, Bowser, Metal Mario, and Pink Gold Peach will cheer. The rest of the characters in the game will not do this, suggesting that implementing cheers for every character was overlooked during development.

Because the game takes place during World War I, the development team wanted it to be as historically accurate as possible. They traveled to Western Front trenches in France used by World War I soldiers and talked to locals who lived near the trenches, as well as studied the first-hand accounts of said soldiers and their family members, some of whom were on the development team for this game.

Shortly after the game's release, players discovered a glitch where when a tall hockey player comes into contact with a shorter one, the shorter one will be sent flying into the stadium. Dubbed the "Hercules Check" by fans, EA later replicated it in real life with a YouTube video shortly after it was discovered.

An EA representative explained in the video that the game, as well as the "glitch" itself, was made to bring "authenticity" and "real-time physics" to the game, suggesting that the "glitch" may have been intentional.

Attachment In volume 3 of Classic Gaming by GamesRadar+, Martin Edmonson, creator of the series, said Destruction Derby was inspired by memories of his father taking him to stock car races as a child. Martin would run up to cars left behind during the races and study their damages up-close before they would be towed away for repair. His experiences inspired him to create a video game that would allow players to "realistically" smash other cars.

The game was inspired by Pokémon Snap and, to an extent, the anime of which Snap was based on. Evidence for these are how the the creatures’ names are portmanteaus of two or more words, similar to how Pokémon are named. They also say their names as cries, which both the anime and Pokémon Snap also do. The developers also cited inspiration from Ape Escape, Dark Cloud, and Viva Piñata.

As of March 2021, there are several mistakes, oversights, and omissions made by the "Move List" section of the pause menu. Some of them are as follows:

•Dr. Mario's Super Jump Punch (his Up Special) is described on his page as "hit[ting] repeatedly". however this is false as Dr. Mario's version hits only once at the start of the attack. Oddly, his base character, Mario, Has his version of the attack hit repeatedly but has a different description of the attack on his own page (the Tips menu corrects this).

•The text on Chrom and Roy's pages describing their counters says that both of the attacks send back the opponents attack "at greater force". However, while this is true in most situations, both counters have a cap of 60% damage that they cannot exceed or a minimum of 9.6% that they cannot go under.

•It says Isabelle's fishing rod grab can throw opponents up, down, or forward, with the menu making no mention of her being able to throw her foes backward with the same attack as well.

•King Dedede's Neutral Special description does not state that it can also automatically reflect projectiles, which is a new feature for the character in this game.

•Being a copy-paste of Simon's text, Richter's Holy Water descriptor states that it takes "fire" damage when his version of the attack actually has the "Aura" effect like Lucario's moves.

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.

Before Sword and Shield's release, nearly the entire game was leaked onto a Discord server by four users. The Pokémon Company decided to take action almost a week after the games officially released by filing a lawsuit against those four users. Perkins Coie LLP, the international law firm hired to represent The Pokémon Company during this case, believed that the company was “[harmed and disrupted in] its ability to market Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield” and issued subpoenas to Discord as well as the website 4chan where the leaks were also posted in an effort to try and identify the perpetrators.

In areas where non-playable party members are walking around independent of Sora (i.e. the Bamboo Grove for instance), if the player looks at both Donald and Goofy from a distance they will sometimes walk toward each other and have a silent conversation. If Sora gets closer and approaches them, then they stop and focus their attention on him instead.

Attachment If the player has themed Command Menus turned on, "Hidden Mickeys" (a recurring symbol of the shape of Mickey Mouse's head inserted in plenty of Disney releases, theme parks and iconography) of varying levels of obscurity can be spotted in many of the area-specific menus. Some notable examples include:
•The gold gladiators on the Olympus Coliseum world's menu hold shields shaped liked Mickey's head
•In the middle of one of the gears in Hallow Bastion's Menu is a Mickey head
•The hard-to-see puffs of smoke "rising" out of the Underworld's Menu are translucent, wavy Mickey heads.
