In the Ruins of Lordaeron, ghostly voices can be heard near the throne. The voices are supposed to be coming from King Terenas and Prince Arthas. If you go into the courtyard and use a spell to detect invisibility, you will see all the ghosts of the Lordaeron citizens. This is a reference to Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, where the king is killed by a possessed Arthas and the town was destroyed by monsters.

According to the game's developers, adding "˜Friendships' (a finishing move where you perform an act of kindness instead of killing your opponent) to the game was their way of poking fun at all the negative attention and public outcry surrounding the game's fatalities.

Attachment Twilight Princess is one of the few Zelda games that does not have a magic meter. As such, there is no need for Green Chu Jelly, which is an item used to refill magic in other Zelda games. However, in the Wii version, it is possible to obtain Green Chu Jelly through normal means. But it is only possible once, in the "Cave of Ordeals", room 19. Carefully kill all of the purple Chus and let a Blue Chu and and Yellow Chu merge. Kill it and then scoop up the remains with a bottle. Link will now be holding a bottle of Green Chu Jelly. It has no text, description or effect whatsoever. However, performing this trick in the GameCube version produces a Purple Chu instead.

Animalities actually started off as a fan rumor. There were fake pictures of how to turn certain characters into animals as a fatality move. The team were aware of this rumor and decided to incorporate Animalities into Mortal Kombat 3.

However, it was dropped after MK3 because of the difficulties in changing one 3D model into another.

Hideki Naganuma composed most of the music for Sonic Rush. His songs usually feature heavy sampling (adding short parts of other pieces of audio into a new piece), and Sonic Rush is no exception. An obvious sample is 'Back 2 Back' using the main melody from 'Louie Louie', but some are harder to spot, such as 'Jeh Jeh Rocket' using a bit of audio from African drum music and 'Wrapped in Black' using a speech by Malcolm X.

Attachment Animal Crossing is only one of four versions of the same game. Three of which were only released in Japan. The first version was for the Nintendo 64, entitled "Dobutsu no Mori", which translates to "Animal Forest". The second version, "Dobutsu no Mori +", was an enhanced remake of the original game, released on the Gamecube. This was the version that would be localized as Animal Crossing in the United States. The final version, "Dobutsu no Mori e+", was a second enhanced remake released on the Gamecube. There was also an unreleased sequel to "Animal Crossing", tentatively entitled "Animal Crossing 2".

Platform: Nintendo Entertainment System

Attachment The Famicom Disk System was an early attempt at expanding the capability of the Famicom, which was the original Japanese version of the NES. This new add-on used discs rather than cartridges, which were cheaper to produce and held more data. Unfortunately the technology at the time was faulty; so much so that Nintendo of Japan continued servicing them until their patents expired in 2003. Interestingly enough, NES has an expansion port located on the bottom of the console. This is because Nintendo planned to release a version of the Famicom Disk System for international markets. This expansion port is absent on the original Famicom, and the Famicom Disk System connects to the Famicom by the cartridge slot. However, the international version of the Famicom Disk System never saw the light of day, and the NES expansion port went unused.

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link is the only game in the The Legend of Zelda series, excluding spin-offs, without the word "The Legend of-" in the title. It is also the only numerical sequel (marked by the roman numeral "II") in the Zelda franchise.

However, in the Japanese release, the game does have the prefix of "The Legend of".

The idea behind "Stop 'N' Swop" was to do certain challenges/objectives in "Banjo-Tooie," then stop and swap the cartridges while the system was still on. This would have unlocked special items in "Banjo-Kazooie." You can than swap the games again to get the items in "Tooie." This idea was scrapped when the window of time that players could "hot swap" games (the ability to switch games when the power was on) was shortened from 10 seconds to only 1 second. There are still cheat codes that will unlock the special items in Banjo-Kazooie.
