Attachment According to the game's planner Hideki Kamiya in an interview published in the June 1998 issue of The PlayStation (JP) magazine, the pin-up poster in the laboratory originally featured a picture of Chun-Li from the Street Fighter series, but she was ultimately replaced with a different woman due to Kamiya thinking her appearance clashed too much with the world of Resident Evil.

According to series composer Yoko Shimomura in a KH Ultimania interview with the game's sound team, they believed the operatic song "Destati" was "cursed":

"In the beginning and ending of the game, there is a song with a chorus. That chorus is a phrase that expresses the dark side of Kingdom Hearts, and it was used in several songs. However, once we tried loading the chorus data in when we were creating the songs, something bad would happen. The worst thing that happened was when the electricity to the building was cut off. (laugh)"

Attachment In the Nintendo 64 version of the game, two cheat codes can be activated on the pause menu that will each cause a picture of an unknown woman to appear in the top-right corner of the screen. Both pictures only get cleared from the screen upon returning to the main menu or changing levels, and inputting each code will cause one picture to overwrite the other:

•Holding L and pressing C-Left/C-Down/C-Right/C-Left/C-Down/C-Right will cause a monochrome picture of a blonde woman to appear.
•Holding L and pressing Down on the D-Pad/C-Left/C-Up will cause a color picture of a brunette woman to appear.

Attachment In the level "The Labyrinth" found in the PlayStation version of the game, after opening the door to the boss room, heading straight down the corridor just to the right of the door will lead you to a fake wall. Behind this wall is a replica of an office within Universal Interactive, complete with a stack of crates of drinks that when hit will play a sound clip of liquid spilling out, several posters of Xena: Warrior Princess and the Universal logo adorning the office walls, and a cubicle marked by a director's clapperboard with the name "Rick" on it. Inside the cubicle is a long sheet of paper attached to a whiteboard with "XENA BUG LIST" written on it, and a personal computer which will play dial-up modem loading sound effects when struck.

Attachment During the Spoiler:Spamton NEO fight in Chapter 2, the player can exploit a glitch that forces Spoiler:the yellow SOUL to fire multiple charged shots in quick succession with the Z and Enter keys, pressing one while holding down the other.

A subsequent patch chose not to remove the glitch, but rather introduce a penalizing Easter egg based on it, where Spoiler:firing six to ten charged shots with this exploit angers Spamton NEO and results in his attacks scaling up in damage with each successive use of the glitch.

Late into the game, if the player enters the medbay where Warren is, he can be heard humming the song "Prisoner" by Stumfol. This song is played when the player dies in the first game, and is likely a nod to how often the then-player character (Warren) would have heard it.

Pulseman
Pulseman (1994)
▲

Attachment In the game's opening cutscene after Dr. Yoshiyama digitizes himself, several blocks of what seems to be gibberish appear on-screen before the computer corrupts. This gibberish is actually a secret message written in Japanese romaji and then coded through a cipher where all vowels are omitted from the text, except for when a word starts with a vowel. Decoding the message reveals what seems to be the last conversation Yoshiyama had with the C-Life woman featured in the cutscene, the mother of Pulseman, suggesting that he gave up his human life ("Do you realize what you've done? You'll never be human again now.") out of love for his creation and resulting in the conception of Pulseman. A cosmetic detail hinting at the nature of the undeciphered message being a conversation are differences in the speed at which each text box appears typed out on-screen (i.e. a slight slowdown during "I'm just a heartless program"). However, not only does this affair reveal the origin of the game's hero, it also has implications about the origin of the game's villain.

Dr. Yoshiyama's whereabouts during the events of Pulseman are never stated, but through information provided in the game's manual, it is suggested that he was corrupted during his time in cyberspace and transformed into the game's antagonist Dr. Waruyama. This theory is supported by the manual listing Yoshiyama's entry into cyberspace during the cutscene and Waruyama's birthdate, December 31, 1999, as occurring in the same year. However, Waruyama appears to be a full-grown adult by 2015 when the main events of the game take place despite technically being 16 years old and less than two years older than Pulseman.

This age discrepancy suggests that Waruyama would have to be at least a half C-Life or full C-Life himself in order for him to originally have been "born" as an adult (given that C-Lifes are computer-generated life-forms), and in this case, for him to originally have been the adult Yoshiyama. Since Yoshiyama was implied to have transformed into at least a half C-Life following the deciphered conversation, this suggests that Waruyama's "birthdate" actually refers to the exact date when Yoshiyama was transformed into Waruyama in the first place.

Additionally, there are similarities between the two names, with "Waruyama" being similar to "Bad mountain" ("悪い山" or "Warui yama"), and "Yoshiyama" appearing similar to "Pleasant mountain" ("楽しい山" or "Tanoshī yama").

The English description for the game's 2009 re-release on the Wii Virtual Console states outright that Yoshiyama did transform into Waruyama, although there are no known Japanese sources that also confirm this.

Attachment When the Hollow Bastion stage turns into the Dive to the Heart segment, the different Stations of Awakening in the background that reference key Kingdom Hearts characters appear to be censored of any reference to Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy. However, these censored Stations are actually close replicas of the designs used on coasters that Square Enix produced in celebration of Kingdom Hearts' 15th anniversary, which also omitted the Disney characters.

During the opening sequence where the player creates a "vessel," attempting to name their creation "Gaster" will instantly reset the game back to the title screen. Attempting to name yourself "Gaster," meanwhile, will cause the game to forcibly quit. This resembles an earlier Easter egg found in Undertale, where attempting to name the Fallen Child "Gaster" will similarly trigger a reset.

Attachment If the player backtracks through the Starwalker's room in the Forest after ringing the bell to scare them off, they can encounter an NPC called "The Original Starwalker." Speaking to this character causes them to reappear in the castle basement's animal cage room.

Importing a Chapter 1 save file to Chapter 2 after discovering the Original Starwalker results in the latter entering Kris' key items alongside Lancer and Rouxls Kaard, briefly exiting to accompany them at the carnival and appearing as part of the Thrash Machine's transformation scene.
