This is the only game in the Soul Calibur series to not be released on a PlayStation console. A PlayStation version was considered, but the console lacked the processing power to animate Ivy's whip-like sword without distortion problems.

According to the Masayuki Uemura, one of Nintendo's hardware designers who oversaw the design of the Famicom, the reason the console was named the "Family Computer" was because during the '80s, words like "personal computer" and "home computer" became widespread in Japan, and the word 'Family' hadn't been used yet. Uemura also wanted to call it "Famicom" for short, after having it suggested to him by his wife, but the idea was rejected by Nintendo's then boss, believing "Family Computer" to be easier to understand, although the moniker was still colloquially used by many.

There is a continuity error with Shanoa from Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia. Her storyline states she is still looking for Albus when she enters the Time Rift but she uses Dextro Custos and Sinestro Custos (twin biting Cerberus heads) that can only be found in Dracula's Castle after defeating Albus in Mystery Manor.

Matt Damon, who portrayed Jason Bourne in the Bourne films, was originally going to be involved in the game. Damon refused to appear due to creative differences, mainly due to the violence. He had lobbied the game's producers to make the gameplay similar to Myst, instead of a shooter. The producers weren't interested in his suggestion and instead went ahead without using Damon's likeness.

Attachment There's an item named 'GB sounds' which stands for Game Boy sounds, and is only obtainable after you beat all 16 gym leaders. Despite the fact that the GB Sounds is supposed to sound like the original music from the Game Boy and Game Boy Color, none of the songs sound exactly like the originals. The reason that GB Sounds doesn't perfectly emulate the original soundtrack is due to the games using a sound font for MIDI playback, rather than generating real 8-bit chiptune sounds.

Also, while Persea is in the outfit, various skits will unlock involving the outfit, which results in Persea saying Klonoa's famous phrase, 'Wa-hoo!', a lot.

Officially, the protagonist's name in this game is "Claude". Hacking into the game's files, one can find a text string saying "DEFNAME = CLAUDE" which not only made it clear his name was Claude, but also hinted at a removed mechanic allowing the player to rename the main character. As a result, many also believe he is Claude Speed, the protagonist of GTA2.

Sam Houser claimed that the GTA3 protagonist did not have a name as he was merely the player's avatar, but would later be named "Claude" as of San Andreas, as everyone had taken to calling him that.

The mission "Saint Mark's Bistro" has CJ temporarily return to Liberty City in order to carry out a hit for Salvatore. Although the player cannot see much of it, a large part of Portland, Liberty City has been modelled, although not much of it is solid.

One can use cheat devices (or mods on the PC version) to reach Liberty City and have a look around, although having a jetpack is recommended.
