The battle with Screaming Mantis is a reference to the original battle with Psycho Mantis. The boss music is "Mantis' Hymn." When Mantis screams 'BLACKOUT!', the screen will turn black and a green "Hideo 2" will appear in the corner. If you try to switch the controller port to Player 2, you can't move and Otacon will tell you that the trick won't work this time. Spoiler:After the battle, Psycho Mantis' ghost will appear and try to read your memory card again. He will also try to move your controller via the rumble feature.

The two ammunition-based enemies in Super Mario World are Bullet Bills and Torpedo Teds. This would make their referred-to names 'Bill and Ted', a possible reference to the film "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure". Their Japanese names translate as "Killer" and "Torpedo" respectively, meaning this reference would have been made by the Nintendo of America localization team.

Attachment David Bowie's 1974 song (and album) 'Diamond Dogs' was a musical adaption of George Orwell's famous book '1984'.
Hideo Kojima is a known David Bowie fan and in the Metal Gear Solid 5 trailer, it is stated that Big Boss has been in a coma for 9 years; 'Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker' - which precedes the events of MGS5 - was set in November 1974, placing MGS5 in late 1983 or (more probably) 1984, the year of George Orwell's novel, with Big Boss shown to be part of a new squad known as 'Diamond Dogs', a direct reference to the album.

Dante used the name Tony Redgrave as an alias in his early days of demon slaying. When asked about the name, director Hideki Kamiya stated that "Antonio Redgrave was a journalist that Dante respected, so he used it as his fake name during his days as a mercenary..." In Bayonetta, Luka's father, Antonio Redgrave, was a world famous journalist that documented supernatural events, people, and places. It's very likely that the two Tonys may be the same person.

Attachment The statue titled "Comstock fights the Serpent of Nations" outside the Audemus Patria Nostra Defendere, bears a striking resemblance to a political cartoon of the USA's 7th president, Andrew Jackson titled "General Jackson Slaying the many Headed Monster". This could be due to how controversial these two men are, and wanting to rebel over something quite large.

One of the running jokes in the game is that "Grabbed by the Ghoulies" did not do well commercially. The best way to see this is in Banjoland. In the trashcan from the Cloud Cuckooland part of the park, there are many unsold copies of "Grabbed by the Ghoulies."
