* ''VideoGame/GanbareGoemon'':
** ''VideoGame/GanbareGoemon3ShishijurokubeNoKarakuriManjiGatame'' had a bloated scope combined with a rushed development cycle that led to several features being cut out of its endgame, with multiple in-game jokes about it. A whopping 3 final key items are suspiciously given at once by a simple ChainOfDeals, Yae skips the final stage with her "feminine intuition" and the titular "Mecha Leg Hold" of the Big Bad is comically denied from being used because the development team hadn't actually decided what it even was meant to be.
** ''Ganbare Goemon: Ōedo Daikaiten'' is largely based on the gameplay from the second Super Famicom game. The entire plot revolves around recycling, with the antagonists openly cracking NoFourthWall jokes about things like how Kabuki is [[RecurringBoss recycled in every game]].
** The final game in the series, ''Ganbare Goemon: Tōkai Dōchū - Ōedo Tengu-ri Kaeshi no Maki'', features the protagonist of ''Goemon Shin Sedai Shūmei!'' as an unnamed prisoner who's been arrested for "crimes against the franchise". That is, regardless of his game's high quality he's looked down upon [[ReplacementScrappy for replacing]] the main Goemon in a futuristic setting. Several punching bags of him can be found in certain areas. Goemon's original appearance from the ''Mr. Goemon'' arcade is likewise featured in a mean-spirited way as an obese impersonator of him.

** In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'', there is a BonusDungeon whose reward is the Ice Arrows. In Desert Colossus, close to the entrance to the Spirit Temple, there's a Gossip Statue that tells Link that the Ice Arrows aren't a worthy reward for beating that dungeon, thus referring to the potential little use of that item in the game.
** In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaPhantomHourglass'', one of the corpses in the Temple of the Ocean King laments that he was unable to use the pad controls instead of the touch screen. The latter is how the game is controlled, as it's a Nintendo DS game.
