There are several unused voice clips that suggest that there were going to be more characters in Dragon Universe than there actually are. Notably, Kid Goku's Dragon Universe seemed to have involved him finding a time machine that takes him to the current Dragon Ball Z era, fighting Yamcha, Krillin, Tien Shinhan, Piccolo (who he thinks is still King Piccolo), maybe Vegeta, Teen Gohan (who thinks he stole the name from his grandfather) and Broly.

Attachment In a Reddit AMA, Borderlands 2 Lead Writer Anthony Burch said his inspiration for creating the NPC Face McShooty, the character that demands you shoot him in the face, was the "Close Range" video on The Onion, featuring a fictional video game in which the only gameplay is shooting people in their faces.

"That was mine. I saw this video...and thought it was hilarious, and thought we could play off the idea with Face McShooty." -Anthony Burch

Originally, the Ollars store had 30 extra levels to buy, but they were later cut from the game. Rather than removing the menu to buy them, 5th Cell simply made the buttons to go to it invisible. Trying to access this menu freezes the game.

This feature was mentioned in the manual, suggesting it was cut late in development.

Attachment The Old Man Winter Plasmid used in the "Burial At Sea" DLC was created by Joe Trinder. He posted the design on the game's official forums. Trinder's design was immediately praised by other fans, quickly gaining attention on Reddit and even earning the approval of BioShock creator Ken Levine. Within a day, Irrational contacted Trinder and asked for permission to publish the poster on their Facebook page. A month later, the team bought the design from Trinder, and told him they planned to use it in the game. His initial version was for a Vigor, but it was changed into a plasmid to fit with the game's DLC.

According to an "Iwata Asks" interview, the reduction of Mr. Resetti's duties to an optional event (where they could only see him by developing the Reset Surveillance Center, which only appears as a Public Works Project after resetting the game once) was not only to mirror the Japanese government's budget revisions, but also because Resetti was considered annoying by many players, and made younger ones cry on some occasions. Yet, he still appeared due to the amount of positive attention towards him from the fanbase.
