Fact: Due to the Monster Hunter series being so popular on the PS2 and PSP, Monster Hunter Tri was originally supposed to be a PS3 game, however, due to it being too expensive to develop such a large game on that system, they shifted it to the less powerful, but cheaper to develop, Wii system.
Fact: the cloud sprite and the bush sprite in Super Mario Bros. are in fact the same sprite.
Y'know, I always noticed that the "visages" were the exact same expression. However, this only counts for the 8-bit original and the Game Boy Color remake Super Mario Bros. Deluxe.
FACT1.Sonic The Hedgehog isn't only the name of Sega's speedy mascot, but also a gene on chromosome 7 of the human genome. Well, it was until recently when the science community decided to ditch all of its 'comedy' names for genes.
FACT2.In the original Super Smash Brothers Melee, the Princess Daisy trophy had a mysterious third eye on the back of its head.
FACT3.There are currently over 100 million Game Boys in the world; both the original and the colour variant. 32 million of them are in Japan, and there are 44 million in America.
Chrono Trigger's main character is called Crono instead of Chrono (without the "h"), this was because it would save a litlle extra space on the cartridge. Also Ayla, the cave girl character in the game seems to be heavily inspired by a very similar literary character in the Earth's Children novels by Jean M. Auel, which are about life in the prehistory.
Fact: Despite the fact it was not originally a Mario game, Super Mario Bros. 2 introduced many characters such as Birdo, Bob-omb, Shy Guy, etc. that were used many times later in the Mario universe
Similarly, Super Mario Land 2 introduced Wario.

My name used to be Crono and people said on this site I spelt it wrong. Silly geese.
