In an interview with GameInformer, Hideo Kojima said that inconsistencies in the Metal Gear canon come from prioritizing each game's message over the series continuity:

"One thing that I try not to do is sacrifice certain things just so I can keep the original story intact. Sometimes I need to accept these inconsistencies in order to be able to achieve what I want for the story."

Attachment A spiritual successor to the game was in development which internally went under the title We Are The Mods. The game was set during the mods and rockers brawls of the 1960s in England. It was originally intended to be on the PlayStation 2 but development was later switched over to the Xbox 360. Work began on the game in 2006 by Rockstar Toronto but it was later canceled with some environment and weapon models still existing for it.

The in-game description and model suggest that Bozar was intended to be a Sniper Rifle, rather than an inaccurate, automatic, heavy support weapon with a scope. It's likely that it was either repurposed during development, or mistakenly given the statistics of an automatic weapon and never fixed.

There are multiple glitches that can occur if a character begins their Final Smash as the bridge is reforming in the stage 'Bridge of Eldin". The most notable of these is that R.O.B. will enter his final smash, Diffusion Beam, and stay in that state for the rest of the match, no matter how long. He will also remain invincible.
