One of the picture frames seen in Chapter 3's Home Sweet Home area contains the phrase "A clap and a half to you. We'll miss you." This is a reference to a catchphrase used by YouTuber Matthew "MatPat" Patrick, the host of the webseries "Game Theory", who had announced that he would be retiring from making YouTube content a few days before the chapter was released.
Pokémon Sleep

Attachment One of Ditto's Sleep Styles, called Rock-Formed Sleep, has it turning into a stone. This is a reference to its Pokémon Gold Pokédex entry: "It can transform into anything. When it sleeps, it changes into a stone to avoid being attacked."

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth
2
Sujimon Sensei describes Hawaii as being "blessed by the sun and the moon." Considering that Sujimon Sensei and several other related elements introduced in Yakuza: Like a Dragon are parodies of the Pokémon series, this line is most likely a reference to Pokémon Sun & Moon, which takes place in a region inspired by Hawaii.
Sonic Adventure
2
Attachment In Final Egg, two large stasis tubes can be found. One holds Metal Sonic, while the other holds an unknown Sonic-based robot, later referred to as Mecha Sonic Mark III by Ian Flynn. This robot has no importance in the story, however, it seems to be based heavily on the design of Mechagodzilla from the "Godzilla" franchise's Shōwa era, due to many similar parts and possible textures from the robot. This also seems to be a reference to Mecha Sonic Mark I, also known as Silver Sonic from Sonic the Hedgehog 2, whose concept art also shows similarities to Mechagodzilla.

League of Legends
2
Attachment The character Veigar seems to be based on the Black Mages from the Final Fantasy series. This connection is further backed by one of Veigar's skins, called White Mage Veigar, which has the white and red coloring of the White Mages from the Final Fantasy series.

If the Song of Healing in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is reversed, it sounds similar to Saria's Song from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. While this may seem unintentional, the inputs to perform each song are also reversed from each other, with Saria's Song being played by pressing Down, Right and Left, while the Song of Healing is played with Left, Right and Down.

Attachment Completing the "Paradise Island" scenario will reward the player with the mythical Unicorn as an adoptable animal. However, it can be unlocked earlier by renaming an exhibit to "Xanadu".

The name "Xanadu" seems to be a reference to at least one of the following:

•The former capital of Shangdu, which featured unicorns on its currency during the Yuan dynasty.
•The 1980 film Xanadu, a musical fantasy.
•The 1988 comic book series also called Xanadu, which featured unicorn characters.

When bees are swarming around other Mudokons, they'll occasionally say "Oh no, not bees", paying homage to a deleted scene from the 2006 film "The Wicker Man" where Nicolas Cage gets tortured with bees and screams a near-identical line.

The Wild Villains, an original group of villains created for the game, are all based on characters from writer Kohei Horikoshi's previous manga, Oumagadoki Zoo:

• Curator is based on Isana, the main antagonist of the "Vs. Aquarium" arc.
• Zookeeper is based on Hana Aoi, the main deuteragonist of the series, with elements from Shiina, the main protagonist.
• Bearhead is based on Shikuma, the main antagonist of the "Vs. Circus" arc.

Attachment Prior to doing official work on the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise as one of its writers/artists, Evan Stanley worked on a fan comic called "Ghosts of the Future" based on the series. Set in an alternate reality where Sonic and his friends are defeated by Dr. Eggman with the aid of a mind-controlled Shadow, the comic featured Silver the Hedgehog as the main character, tasked with restoring the seven Chaos Emeralds that were removed from time as a last resort. After being brought on to do official work on the franchise, the fan comic has been referenced on two occasions in official Sonic comics. The first was in issue 257 of Archie's Sonic the Hedgehog comic, which featured cameos from Richard and Deborah Erin (Silver's parents in the comic) during the scene where Rotor is directing rescue operations outside Twinkle Park (note that they are slightly recolored in this scene). The second time was in issue 64 of IDW's Sonic the Hedgehog comic, which featured cameos from Vanice the Hedgehog and Sicily the Hedgehog (Silver's sisters in the comic) during the scene where Silver and Whisper are trying to confront Duo.

Suikoden II
2
Attachment According to Suikosource user JiN88, the Japanese demo of Suikoden II contains two debug/testing rooms.

The first test room claims to be in Radat Town, despite seeming to be in Kyaro Town. The room contains various warping and unfinished textures, out-of-place objects like barrels, and two non-functioning Warp points. Of the warp points, one can be found down near a river and loads nothing, while the other can be found near a bridge with an Anita NPC and some invisible objects. While this test room seems to be empty, except for one small area featuring several invisible objects, a pushable tree that you can talk to, and a row of NPCs that can be pushed, but cannot be interacted with without crashing the game. There are also two Gabocha NPCs, one of which can warp you back to somewhere else in the test room, while the other has some dialogue and acts like a shopkeeper. Finishing the conversation with the shopkeeper Gabocha will cause the game to crash. Interacting with any Anita NPC will cause the game to crash.

The second test room contains several repeating groups of Anita, Gengen, and Old Man NPCs in a sort of army formation. The name of this second debug room is "神様の村" which means "Village of God"/"God's village". Talking to the Anita and Gengen NPC groups will have them say a single line of dialogue (the Anitas however will have no text), and once finished will cause the game to try and load something, which results in the game crashing. It's thought that they would try to warp you somewhere with a cutscene. Raww Le Klueze, global admin of the Suikosource forums, has translated this room's dialogue as such:

"The Gengens each say:
• "I am the sound change god"
• "I am the sound test god"
• "I am the window change god"
• "I am the unit change god" (for this phrase, he uses the same word as Apple does when you rearrange war units)

Some of what the Old Man says follows the same format "I am the god of !" in the middle row
Library, Suggestion box, Restaurant, Cooking Battles, Guardian Deity and Peeping...? (He also laughs after that one. Bath scenes maybe?)

Top says "The detective god is here!"
Bottom "Fishing god here!" "I'm the god of tablets" (same word as the plates found in the Sindar ruins, presumably tests that?)

Last one on the bottom I don't know, he just seems to be making noise cause it just says BABANBABANBANBAN - HAAPIBANONO."

This latter piece of dialogue might be a reference to the song "Nice Hot Water", a 1966 song in the "Nihon no Uta" Japanese local song series that was famously covered by the Japanese comedy rock band The Drifters. The first line before the hyphen is the same as the song, and the second line after the hyphen is almost the same as the song.

The Team Aqua/Magma Leader Battle theme music featured in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald is based on the Shionchou boss battle theme music from Game Freak's Super Famicom game Bushi Seiryūden: Futari no Yūsha. The themes were written by both games' composer and Game Freak co-founder Junichi Masuda.

The karts for Shrek, Alex, B.O.B., and Hiccup have the number decals "01", "05", "09", and "10", respectively. This is a reference to the years in which their debut movies were released in ("Shrek" in 2001, "Madagascar" in 2005, "Monsters vs. Aliens" in 2009, and "How to Train Your Dragon" in 2010).
Cuphead
2
Attachment According to a GameSpot interview with the game's lead designer Jared Moldenhauer, he confirmed that the presence of a plush lizard and a plush wolf alongside Mr. Chimes the monkey toy boss is an homage to George the gorilla, Lizzie the lizard, and Ralph the wolf from the arcade game Rampage.
Cuphead
2
One of Cagney Carnation's attacks in his final phase has him spitting dandelion seeds. As of version 1.1.3, when a player gets hit by one of these seeds, the screen blurs and the colors shift briefly. On Studio MDHR’s official website page regarding the update, the final bullet point says “Touch fuzzy, get a little dizzy”. This attack is a reference to Level 1-7 “Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy” from Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island.
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2
2
Attachment Squidward's forward tilt in Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 is based on a meme that went viral around the first game's pre-launch, showing a screenshot of Squidward kicking with poorly aligned fighting game hitboxes and the caption "AH HELL NAW SKODWERD GOT THE JANKY ASS HITBOX". Despite this origin, the move's hitbox "isn't very janky".
