Charmander is only able to learn Metal Claw by leveling up in FireRed and LeafGreen, at level 13. In later generations, the move is only available to the Charmander line through breeding. It's likely that Charmander was given this move to ameliorate the comparative early disadvantage of picking the fire-type starter in Red and Green, when faced with the Pewter Gym and Mt. Moon, which contain many Pokémon strong against fire-type Pokémon.

Attachment When selecting the Famicom and NES color schemes for R.O.B., the stickers on their base change to reflect their real-life counterparts. The decal for the Japanese Famicom R.O.B. reads "Family Computer Robot", while the decal for the North American NES R.O.B. reads "Robotic Operating Buddy".

In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, these regional color schemes based on R.O.B.'s original models for the Famicom and NES are made his default palette depending on if you are playing the Japanese or International versions of the games respectively.

In the Dreamcast version of Sonic Adventure, you can explore under the deep water in the Egg Carrier Chao Garden. Under the water lies a secret ring far out of reach. This was removed in the DX update, because the depth of the water was reduced, probably to prevent Chao from swimming out of reach and getting stuck in the terrain.

There is an unused character found in the SNES version's data named "??Mystery??". He appears to be a placeholder for a 13th wrestler who wasn't finished. His sprites are borrowed from Shawn Michaels, but the palette used gives him grey hair and boots, pale skin, and black pants; and when performing certain moves, his sprites change to Bret Hart. He also lacks a finishing move, a theme song, portraits and a biography on the wrestler selection screen, and graphics for the Titantron that appears when winning a match. The Genesis version contains a variation, but this one resembles Razor Ramon.

Nintendo removed the Nintendo 64's ability to use RGB output (SCART/Component), but earlier versions of the console still have the ability to do so. An RGB signal can be achieved on the N64 by simply jumping a few wires on the motherboard and adding a few more electronic components.
