* AcclaimedFlop: The second game, despite getting just as good reviews and being multi-platform, massively underperformed comercially, reportedly selling less then half of what the first game did on the Wii alone and possibly being a factor in THQ's decision to [[CreatorKiller shut down Blue Tongue Entertainment]] six months later.
* ExecutiveMeddling: ''de Blob 2'' was originally being developed as a Wii exclusive like the first game until THQ suddenly wanted to also release it on [=PlayStation=] 3 and Xbox 360 under the same deadline to try expanding the series' reach. A programmer later expressed his disappointment that because this was decided mid-development when a good chunk of programming and design was already done with the specs of the Wii in mind, besides the better graphics and 3D compatibility they weren't able to take full advantage of the increased power of the other consoles unlike if the game was developed for them from the start or they had more time.

There are two unused themes in the game.
Added DiffLines:
* DummiedOut: Hidden in ''de Blob 2'''s files are themes for [[Music/BritneySpears Toxic]] and an unused Inky theme. Toxic was going to be a selectable theme in the game, but THQ couldn't get the rights to use the song. It appears to have been cut late in development, as THQ was determined to have it in the game. It is unknown why the Inky theme was cut however.

Looking at this now and get the thought of how there was meant to be more to this with the Sy Fy deal.
