Attachment In the Japanese release of the game, the game's packaging accommodates every disc with it's own slot. However in the European and North American release of the game, the fourth disc is just put in a nub above the instruction manual. This has caused some criticism of Microsoft because it's very easy to cause scratches to the fourth disc.

Attachment The game was meant to be longer, but due to time constraints, the high manufacturing costs of a 34 megabit cartridge with NVRAM, and Sega's commitment to a major McDonald's Happy Meal promotion featuring a sweepstakes to win a copy of the game, the decision was made to split the game into two games, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and Sonic & Knuckles. Evidence of this split can be found in the level select menu (sound test), where levels from the second game (such as Flying Battery, Mushroom Vally, and Sandopolis) can be found.

Attachment When the game was released on the North American PlayStation Store (PSN), it was taken down less than a week later due to reports that Idol Springs and Colossus were not working properly and contained glitches. These glitches included getting trapped in the Idol Statues, and items getting stuck within the levels. The glitches have since been fixed and the game has been re-released.

Because of Super Smash Bros. Melee's status as a launch title, it was specifically designed to showcase new features that the N64 wasn't capable of. This is why the game's opening sequence is a high-quality, full-motion video, which the N64 was incapable of producing. The developers at HAL even worked with 3 other production companies in Tokyo, Japan, to make Melee's opening sequence as outstanding as possible.

Melee was in development for 13 month's, and the game's director, Masahiro Sakurai, had no holidays and cut short his weekends to work on the game. He even went far enough to say that his lifestyle while developing Melee was "destructive", due to how he felt pressured to deliver a greatly improved game. In the end, Sakurai and his team's efforts paid off. Even after the release of Super Smash Bros. Brawl's release, Sakurai still dubs Melee to be the sharpest game in the series.

Attachment In Event 39: Jigglypuff Live, the screen in the background will sometimes focus on the player's Jigglypuff. If the player uses "Sing" at this very moment, the other 3 Jigglypuffs will fall asleep, and for longer than usual. This Easter egg only appears in Event 39, which may be appropriately placed in sync with Jigglypuff's National Pokedex number, 39.

The developers initially considered replacing the character Ness with Lucas (the protagonist of the Japan-only GBA title Mother 3), and planned on making Marth and Roy Japanese-exclusive fighters. However, Ness remained the spokes-fighter for the Earthbound trilogy due to consideration for delays in releasing Mother 3, and Marth and Roy were made available worldwide due to fans' desires to play as the Fire Emblem duo.

Attachment There is a glitch where the player can fish in large statues found in gyms and Indigo Plateau, even being able to catch Pokemon. You can find Magikarps with the Old Rod, Poliwags and Goldeens with the Good Rod, and Krabbies, Psyducks, and Goldeens with the Super Rod. The Super Rod only works in the Cerulean City gym. You can also surf on these large statues, but no Pokemon will appear while surfing.

The Pikmin microgame is exclusive to the non-Japanese version of the game. The Pikmin microgame replaced a game based off of the Famicom Disk System game Nazo no Murasame-jō ("the Mysterious Murasame Castle." This is likely due to the original game not being localized until 2014.
