Attachment Located on the rooftop of Tom's Diner (over at Bradbury & Buran) is a pair of binoculars. If the players uses the binoculars to look up to the left, they'll find graffiti of the Northern cardinal bird that's used in CD Projekt RED's logo. After waiting a few moments, the vision in the binoculars will glitch and shift to show a picture of the game's dev team superimposed over the screen. According to global community director Marcin Momot and senior PR manager Marta Piwońska, this picture was taken at an annual company picnic on CD Projekt RED's 20th anniversary in 2022.

In the English dub of the Ace Attorney anime, the character Furio Tigre is voiced by Sam Riegel, the English voice of series protagonist Phoenix Wright starting with his appearance in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (with the exception of Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, where Phoenix was instead voiced by Trevor White). Based on a tweet from Kyle Phillips, the voice director for the dub, this appears to be intentional, as the case Tigre was involved in, "Recipe for Turnabout", involved him Spoiler:posing as Phoenix in a plot to frame Maggey Byrde for murder.

Sujimon Sensei describes Hawaii as being "blessed by the sun and the moon."

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.

Just Dance 2023 Edition introduces a character named Agent D during the game's version of "Toxic" by Britney Spears, which had previously appeared in Just Dance 2 with a different routine. Initially, she appears as an air hostess before revealing her true nature as a secret agent, battling a group of rival spies in order to save the plane's pilot, the P2 character from the song "Dragostea Din Tei" by O-Zone (who is later revealed to be her partner and possible love interest).

Just Dance 2024 Edition would expand upon her considerably via her appearance in another Britney Spears song, "Gimme More". Primarily set in her base of operations, it's revealed that Agent D had actually appeared in several past Britney Spears songs wearing disguises, specifically "Work Work" (the site manager), the original version of "Toxic" (the nurse), and the Extreme Mode version of "Circus" (the performer). Additionally, the background screens shown during the song display gameplay of other songs by Britney Spears (specifically "Womanizer", "Baby One More Time", "Oops!... I Did It Again", and "Scream & Shout"), though her roles in these songs are left unrevealed. This retroactively retcons the series so that Agent D has appeared as early as Just Dance 2. Additionally, the song ends with the pilot (who had appeared throughout the various missions, constantly needing help from Agent D) pressing a button on the monitor, leading to her next mission (presumably the 2023 version of "Toxic").

Currently, the only Britney Spears songs that have been featured in the Just Dance series that are not confirmed to involve Agent D are "Slumber Party" and "Till The World Ends". Additionally, it was revealed in an Instagram post that Agent D had also appeared in the standard version of "Circus", disguised as the feline tamer.

Attachment In Speed Highway, several billboards can be found depicting an unknown female character. In 2020, Satoshi Okano, a former designer at Sega who worked on Sonic Adventure, revealed that this was a scrapped spider character he designed with the prototype name "Spider Girl", and posted an old sketch of the character alongside a sketch of another scrapped character, a bat named "Fly the Vampire". In 2023, Okano posted an inked version of the original Spider Girl sketch from the same time period alongside several inked sketches from the development of Samba de Amigo. Spider Girl's appearance on the billboards in Sonic Adventure suggests that the character lasted far enough into the game's development to receive a 3D model, but the character was ultimately scrapped for unknown reasons, and this 3D model has yet to surface on its own. It's unknown what role either Spider Girl or Fly were intended to have, though fans have noted that Spider Girl has some similarities to Rouge the Bat from Sonic Adventure 2, namely that both characters have large bosoms and prominent heart-based/romantic imagery.

Attachment In the area beside The Watermill, there is a tree with a small low-poly representation of a Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle attached to it. This pairs well with a bit of cut content recently found within the game's code for the same area, where Ico could have gained a secret weapon that took the form of an Insect Net.

How these two elements could have come together remains unknown, but it was likely part of a reference to Ico's voice actor, Kazuhiro Shindō, and his prior role as 'Boku' in the first installment of the Boku no Natsuyasumi series.

Boku no Natsuyasumi had an extensive bug-catching and beetle fighting system. These features reappearing in ICO were potentially meant to be an elaborate reference, playing on the idea that Kazuhiro Shindō is once again voicing a young boy, who might refer to himself with the first-person pronoun 'boku', if he were to speak Japanese.
