Attachment In early production of the game, Warhawk was intended to be a playable character and even had pictures for the character select screen, but near the end of production, it was discovered that Warhawk was too powerful for multiplayer and the control scheme did not work well for a helicopter, so he was removed from the final version of the game.

Attachment Sabreman can be found on the ice side of Hailfire Peaks. Sabreman is a an old character from the Sabreman series, developed by Rare under their original name of "Ultimate Play the Game". Sabreman references his old games when the player unfreezes him, saying that he has been trapped in there since 1984, the release year of his first game Sabre Wulf.

Once the player takes Sabreman back to his tent on the fire side of Hailfire Peaks, he will begin to ramble about perhaps riding a dolphin. This may refer to the code name for the GameCube.

The achievement "Zombie Genocidest" is a reference to Dead Rising, in which the player must kill 53,594 zombies to receive the achievement "Zombie Genocider". In order to outdo Dead Rising, Valve included this achievement and added one more to the kill count. "Genocidest" functions as a play on words: going from the comparative suffix "er" (of Genocider) to the superlative suffix "est" emphasizes Valve's one-upmanship.

Attachment In an interview with Satoru Iwata and Shigeru Miyamoto, it was revealed that an early, experimental build of the game had split-screen multiplayer, with Mario and Luigi as playable characters.

The game's planned multiplayer mode ended up being reworked into a Mario Bros.-style minigame thanks to the Nintendo 64's technical limitations making the split-screen concept unfeasible. However, in February of 1996 (just a month before E3 of that year), both multiplayer mode and Luigi were removed, in part because the Nintendo 64 was bundled with only one controller. These statements are corroborated by findings from the Gigaleak, a massive content leak of internal data from Nintendo in 2020 that included early assets from Super Mario 64. Among the leaked material was a model and textures for Luigi and sprites for "1P" and "2P" icons. Luigi's model is dated June 20, 1995, while the icons use the same generic font seen in the Shoshinkai demo from November of that year, rather than the custom font seen in both the E3 1996 demo and the final release.

No clumps of hair - nothin'." were added in The Scout Update to the game after fans noticed a resemblance between the Scout and TV pitchman Vince Offer. Offer is best known for being the pitch man for the ShamWow! and these voice lines are parodied from this commercial.
