Franchise: F-Zero
▲

▼
F-Zero has several tie-ins with the Star Fox series. The character James McCloud shares the name of Fox's father from Star Fox, and the characters have many other similarities:
•They wear the same outfit.
•Both drive drive ships powered by G-Diffusers that were designed by a company named "Space Dynamics".
•F-Zero's James McCloud also is the squadron leader of a space combat team known as "Galaxy Dogs", a clear parody of Star Fox, and his partner, a man named O'Donnell, is a likely reference to Star Fox's Wolf O'Donnell.
•In F-Zero X, James McCloud even states the he "drives like a sly fox", furthering the connection.

Attachment Fervord records uncovered an unreleased track by "The Jetzons" made around 1984 called "Hard Times", which was found to strongly resemble "Ice Cap Zone" from Sonic the Hedgehog 3. This is likely more than coincidental, seeing as how Brad Buxer was the keyboardist for the Jetzons at the time, and is also credited for working on the soundtrack for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 alongside Michael Jackson.

There are several unused voice clips that suggest that there were going to be more characters in Dragon Universe than there actually are. Notably, Kid Goku's Dragon Universe seemed to have involved him finding a time machine that takes him to the current Dragon Ball Z era, fighting Yamcha, Krillin, Tien Shinhan, Piccolo (who he thinks is still King Piccolo), maybe Vegeta, Teen Gohan (who thinks he stole the name from his grandfather) and Broly.

The game's soundtrack was included as one of the pre-order bonuses for the game. However, the header information in the music files indicates that they were encoded by "arsa13", a user responsible for putting up illegal copies of the soundtrack on torrent sites.

This suggests that Ubisoft had downloaded a pirated version of their own soundtrack to publish as a pre-order incentive.

People believe this child is looking for the 'usual place.'

Attachment Lorelai has used a different type of weapon in every appearance she has made in the series. She uses a bow in the first Suikoden game, a scythe in Suikoden II, and a whip in Suikoden V. This suggests that she is a strong, well rounded fighter. Her recruitment policy usually requires a high level, further illustrating her own skill.

In "Dragon History", the game's story mode, during the fight with Nam, Mr. Satan/Hercule is shown on the signs and blimps even though he is not the champion at that point in the story. This can be attributed to the stage being more or less the same throughout the series, so making a whole new stage without Mr. Satan/Hercule just for this scenario would be wasteful.
