Takuma's ability to combo off of his desperation move was originally a glitch:

"Takuma is able to combo off his Super Strike Gale, but originally this was a bug. We tried taking it out, but he was too weak without it: 'I don’t know… if Takuma doesn’t have this, he’s kind of… um…' So we re-added it again! Thanks to that decision though he became a pretty cheap character. So I kind of regret it now."

During the planning phase of development, there were plans to make an "Ultimate Young Style Karate Team" consisting of Ryo, Robert, and Yuri. But with Yuri being committed to the England Team, along with other changes, Takuma was made the third member instead. The idea for this team wouldn't happen until The King of Fighters '96.

Joe's win pose was going to have a bigger smile with missing teeth. However, this animation was scrapped out of respect for the fans of his character:

"Joe makes a big toothy grin during his win pose, and at first we made it even larger, with more teeth missing! It was amazing… but of course, after considering the feelings of all the Joe fans out there, we thought it looked both too sad and too scary, so we asked the designer to fill those missing teeth back in."

Ryo's design is based on Ryu from Street Fighter. Since the game's creator, Takashi Nishiyama, also created the first Street Fighter game when he was employed at Capcom, the character was made as a homage to the series he created.

Though K9999 isn't playable, the data for his character is still in the arcade version and can be selected using external cheat devices. Here, he uses Kyo's icon on the select screen and Kula's while in battle. In battle, his color palette is bugged but is otherwise fully functional.

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.

Prior to the game's console release, SNK celebrated the series' 15-year anniversary by updating the official King of Fighters website to feature images of K' and Mai Shiranui in the game's art style. This led to speculation that the two characters would be playable on the console versions of the game. This ended up being false, with both K' and Mai becoming absent from the final roster, with Elisabeth and Mature substituting as console-exclusive characters.

Attachment Athena's design was drastically changed for this installment. According to SNK illustrator Eisuke Ogura, Athena's character design was revised many times over until the design that appears in the final game was reached. When drawing her, he kept getting comments like, "She let her smile!" or "Make her legs fatter!" or simply "Fatter!"

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)"
