The reason for the game's sudden shift from a town to a deserted island was as a result of Animal Crossing's director Aya Kyogoku wanting to bring something completely new to the series. Kyogoku believed that players were "moving to a new location that already existed," and "wanted to giving them a new experience and thought a deserted island would be perfect."

Within the games files exists four unused fighting styles. Two of them are prototype movesets for Lizardman and Revenant and the other two have no specific character attached to them. When hacked into the game, Lizardman's is only one that is usable, however it is incomplete and glitchy. The other three cannot be used and will cause the game to crash when the player is attacked.

One style has the character riding what appears to be an invisible horse. It is speculated that this style might have been meant for the Calvary unit in the Chronicle of Swords mode.

According to Hideo Kojima in the documentary Metal Gear Saga Vol. 1, the game's original setting would have revolved around nuclear weapon inspections in Iraq and Iran. The plot of the game involved Solid Snake stopping the new Metal Gear while it was located on an aircraft carrier within a certain time limit. "Liquid Snake" and his group were supposed to be defeated by Snake, which would imply that Liquid would have faked his death from FOXDIE in "Metal Gear Solid (1998)". However, after working on the project for 6 months, tensions began to rise in the Middle East, so the team decided to scrap it in order to avoid controvesy. The final result of this original plot we relegated to the game's opening, involving "The Tanker".

In an interview with SPoNG.com, Monkey Ball creator Toshihiro Nagoshi said that he planned to release the game for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. The game was later released for the Wii exclusively, and no such announcement for other consoles were made. A reversal of this later happened with the 2006 edition of Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic and the Secret Rings.

At one point there was going to be a secret truck in Monster Truck Madness 2, a yellow 68 Camero called "Chuck's Car," created by 3D modeler Chuck Carson. If one types "CHUCK" during a race, the game will still display the message "Restart the game to drive Chuck's Car." The vehicle was removed to avoid legal issues with Chevrolet.

Giga Bowser's design was inspired by Sakurai's vision of how Bowser looked before Super Mario 64.

"The old Bowser was scary. In the NES era, characters were more symbolic, so you had room to use your imagination. When I looked at the original Bowser, I saw a frenzied, terrifying monster.

But, advancements in technology have allowed designers to convey characters in greater detail, and in recent games his image has steadily become cuter.

Naturally, this is a current game, so it needs to use his current design. And from there, Giga Bowser (unexpectedly?) happened to come into existence."

The player can completely softlock their game if an extremely complex and absurd series of actions are undertaken, forcing them to have no other choice but to start a new game. Specifically, if this is done, then the player will be stuck at either the Pokémon League building, Pacifidlog Town, Dewford Town, or Sootopolis City with only an Electrode that only knows the move Selfdestruct.

This is not possible in the Generation VI remakes.
