* ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate'' has this happen in some of the timelines that Okabe sees.



* The original ''[[VideoGame/BackyardSports Backyard Baseball]]'' also contains a [=Y2K=] bug. Upon beating the game, your name will be entered into the Hall of Fame with a date on the achievement as well, with the date written in a MM/DD/YY format. If an award is obtained and your computer's internal clock is any day past 1999, it will instead read as MM/DD/(Year-1900). So, if you won it on, say, January 15, 2003, it would read as 1/15/103. Curiously, the team photo doesn't suffer from any such bug, correctly displaying the year as "[=20XX=] Team Photo". Even more oddly, the record book ''also'' doesn't have this problem, despite using the ''exact same date format'' as the Hall of Fame!
