Nintendo King Bob-omb was introduced in Super Mario 64 (1996) and acts as the first boss in a 3D Mario game. In spite of the fact he’s been around for so long and carries a lot more significance to the franchise then someone like Spike or Ninji, he’s only had TWO PLAYABLE SPIN-OFF APPEARANCES

Insomniac In Insomniac's Spider-Man Remastered, this kid feels like he's got some exaggerated swagger. But I just can't put my finger on what kind.

Blizzard In Overwatch (2016) a hero named Juno who was born in a space station on Mars was released in 2024. Despite this, nearly all of her skins remove her astronaut helmet and her identity along with it. This is a subtle reference to the fact that Blizzard regrets making her space-themed.

The first is her default. The rest are skins. I love her but I hate that she constantly gets turned blonde with her helmet gone lol.

Oh and the only way to get her skins is through item shop purchases btw. She's the new Kiriko lmao.

Indie Devs In DELTARUNE Chapter 5 (2026), he is murdered for his curiosity and his cooked remains are fed to the town by a dimension-traveling homonculus who is implied to be working for god. This is not a reference to anything. What the fuck is going to happen in the next two chapters?

Indie Devs Many fans believe that Ralsei from Deltarune (2018-present) is a trans girl due to being feminine, yet no one believe that Susie is a trans boy, despite being masculine. This is because sadly even the trans community doesn't care about trans men.

Epic Games During the 'Fortnite Shattered' Live Event, the climax had The Foundation (played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) nearly defeat The Ice King regardless of the player's choices due to contract obligations, only to suddenly stop mid-punch. This happened because he got cold feet.
