If the player names their character "ZELDA" in all capital letters ("LOLO" in the French release; "ぜるだ" in the Japanese release) they are treated to a salsa remix of the game's main theme. This could also be a nod to the original The Legend of Zelda on the NES, where entering the name "ZELDA" on the second save slot results in the game starting on the second quest immediately.

K.K. Slider is based on the game's sound designer Kazumi Totaka. K.K. Slider's Japanese name "Totakeke" is taken from the fact that in Japan, last names are written first, so it would be Totaka Kazumi. That can be shortened to "Totaka K" very similar to "Totakeke". Totaka has also hidden music in every Animal Crossing game, and at least twelve other games. People now search for the hidden music in his games, which is known as "Totaka's Song".

Attachment According to STI director Roger Hector, Michael Jackson was initially brought in during development to compose music for the game, even though no mention of his involvement was included in any of the game's credits. This was supposedly due to the scandals that arose around Jackson at the time. His involvement was removed from the title, and much reworking, including all the started music, had to be done.

In December 2009, Michael Jackson's composer Bradley Buxer (credited in Sonic 3 as Brad Buxer) told French magazine Black & White that Jackson was actually involved with some of Sonic 3's compositions, supposedly not being credited because he wasn't happy with how they sounded, due to the lack of optimal sound reproduction on the Genesis.

At the 2022 PAX East during an interview with the game's composer Tiago "Tee" Lopes from Mega Visions, he was asked what was his personal history with the TMNT series was and why was he apart of the project. He responded:

"So I was always a very big fan of TMNT since I was a very small kid, I remember it being the first cartoon I ever watched on TV, and them being my first favorite superheroes... and also I had the opportunity to work with these wonderful teams. Dotemu is the second game I do with them. And it's my first time working with Tribute, and they did such an amazing game and I'm just so glad to be apart of this project."

Attachment If the player visits K.K. Slider on the Saturday before their birthday (Or if their birthday is on a Saturday), K.K. Slider will play a song that can only play on that day, which can only be heard live.
The song, "K.K. Birthday", would later be brought back in Animal Crossing: New Leaf, with the same requirements to hear it, but unlike Dōbutsu no Mori e+ it actually has an aircheck version.
