Franchise: Suikoden
1
Attachment Lorelai has used a different type of weapon in every appearance she has made in the series. She uses a bow in the first Suikoden game, a scythe in Suikoden II, and a whip in Suikoden V. This suggests that she is a strong, well rounded fighter. Her recruitment policy usually requires a high level, further illustrating her own skill.
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
1
Attachment In the Character Reference section, Chi-Chi says that she would like to have met Grandpa Gohan. However, she met him in the last episodes of Dragon Ball. The game might be disregarding this, as it was anime-only filler.
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
1
In "Dragon History", the game's story mode, during the fight with Nam, Mr. Satan/Hercule is shown on the signs and blimps even though he is not the champion at that point in the story. This can be attributed to the stage being more or less the same throughout the series, so making a whole new stage without Mr. Satan/Hercule just for this scenario would be wasteful.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II
1
Attachment In the PlayStation 3 release, placeholder text scripted as "MENU_DLC5_MAPS" can be found in the game's code, hinting that Treyarch may have considered releasing 5 DLCs instead of the final 4.
Action 52

There is evidence in the game's code that suggests that there was originally going to be 8 more games, making a total of 60.
Tekken 6
1
Attachment In the Korean version of the game, Alisa's chainsaws are changed to energy beams, similar to Lightsabers from the Star Wars series.
Star Fox

There is a possibility General Pepper is named after The Beatles' album "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". He is also wearing an outfit similar to a character on the album cover.
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
1
In one of the trailers for Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, there's an introduction to the Aurora Units that feature heavily in the game. The camera pans over blueprints for what the game calls a future Aurora Unit complex. The layout is identical to Mother Brain's chambers in Tourian from Super Metroid.
Golden Sun: The Lost Age
1
Attachment Inside the game's files are unused sprites of a character that resembles Link from The Legend of Zelda.
Franchise: F-Zero
1
In the first F-Zero game, Captain Falcon's ship (Blue Falcon) has the number 111. In F-Zero X and all later titles it has the number 7. 111 is the binary code for 7. It's unclear whether this was intentional or not.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
1
Attachment There are unused CD labels in the games files, stored with the data for the CDs that are found during battles. It is likely that the CDs were originally intended to show these labels related to what would have been unlocked when collecting them.
Super Mario Bros.
1
In the game's manual, it's stated that the Koopas turned the Mushroom People into stone, bricks, and plants. This could imply that throughout the game you're killing the inhabitants of the Mushroom Kingdom.
Franchise: Pokémon
1
The Pokemon 'Rotom' is just motor spelled backwards. It's thought this is because motors make machines work, but Rotom does the opposite.
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
subdirectory_arrow_right Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru (Game)
1
Attachment Richard in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening is likely based on the main character for the game Kaeru no Tame ni Kane wa Naru (or "The Frog for Whom the Bell Tolls"). This is evident in his villa, in which the music that is played is a remixed version of the main theme from that game, and the frogs found hopping around his villa being a reference to the gameplay of his own game. Link's Awakening also uses the same engine as For the Frog the Bell Tolls.

Pokémon Trainer is the only character that has a custom name in their original series to not be given a default name in Brawl, and is instead given a generic name. It is clear from the character design that the suitable default name would be "Red" as he is named as such in Pokémon Gold and Silver, and again in the remakes which were released after Brawl. The reason this was done is unknown.
Franchise: Grand Theft Auto
1
In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto IV, the Micro SMG is actually a civilian-legal pistol version of the IMI Micro-Uzi sub-machine gun but called Micro SMG in-game, while it is a full-sized IMI Uzi submachine gun in the other games. It can be identified as the pistol version because the side-folding wire stock is deleted, and there is no provision on the rear of the receiver to mount one. One can only assume that the pistol was illegally modified for full-automatic operation.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories
1
The SP89 is chronologically out of place as the game takes place in 1984, while this variant of the MP5 was not made until 1989. The game's version of it is fully-automatic, while in real life it is semi-automatic. However, it may be illegally custom converted to fully-automatic.

EarthBound
1
Attachment There are four unused sprites of King, which show him climbing a ladder or rope. This would suggest two things: either King was supposed to remain in the party longer, or Ness' original travels through Onett were supposed to include something to climb.
Franchise: Pokémon

Charmander may be based on a 1000+ year old misconception about the salamander.

Both Aristotle and Pliny the Elder believed that the salamander was capable of withstanding the heat of flames, and even had the ability to extinguish them. In Pliny's Natural History, the oldest surviving encyclopedia, a fairly accurate description of the salamander is followed up by claims that "This animal is so intensely cold as to extinguish fire by its contact, in the same way as ice does" (Book 10, Chapter 86). Later in the same work, though, he seems to view these supposed properties with more skepticism, claiming that "if it had been true, it would have been made trial of at Rome long before this" (Book 29, Chapter 23).

The connection between salamanders and fire persisted, however, and we can also find it in the Talmud, which briefly mentions the salamander as a creature actually produced by flames, whose blood could protect anybody smeared in it from fire. Even Leonardo da Vinci, one of history's greatest scientific minds, seemed content to echo the received wisdom on the subject, mentioning in his notebooks that the salamander "has no digestive organs, and gets no food but from the fire, in which it constantly renews its scaly skin."
Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Snake appears to dislike Sonic according to his Smash Taunt conversation with Otacon when battling the hedgehog. Whilst the reasons are mostly unclear, one popular theory is that it references how Snake's Japanese VA, Akio Otsuka, is the son of Chikao Otsuka, who voices Sonic's nemesis, Doctor Eggman/Robotnik. Coincidentally, Chikao also voices Big Boss in Metal Gear Solid 4. It's also possible Snake's disliking of Sonic is a reference to how hedgehogs eat snakes in the wild.
