** Zero is a lot more condescending about X's loss to Vile on the highway than in canon, though TheStinger implies that he's just trying to sound tough in front of the other Maverick Hunters.

* CanonWelding: The garden from VideoGame/{{Pikmin}} is actually [[VideoGame/{{Earthbound}} the Minch family's backyard.]] It's also the garden where VideoGame/BuckBumble takes place, Buck taking a detour to hunt down Lardna.

* ExtremeOmnivore: Kirbo is depicted as willing to eat anything, keeping in-line with the conventions of the ''VideoGame/{{Kirby}}'' series, but here it's taken even further, being shown as capable of sucking his enemies' organs out of their bodies (among other things); "Something About Kirby & the Amazing Mirror" even features the four Kirbos coming together to cook and eat Dark Meta Knight.

* RearEndWriting: El Gigante has "RE4R" on his butt in ''Something About ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4''

** In "Something About Undertale - Alternate Pacifist Route", Undyne deliberately goes out of her way to kill So Sorry, an open jab at the hugely unpopular character.

** In "Something About Ocarina of Time" part 2, Link shits himself after he's almost crushed by a DescendingCeiling trap.

* BringMyBrownPants: In "Something About Ocarina of Time" part 2, Link shits himself after he's almost crushed by a DescendingCeiling trap.

* BringMyBrownPants: After being impaled by one of Undyne's spears, Monster Kid [[HellIsThatNoise screeches]] while releasing his bowels.

** Ganondorf is completely absent from both "Something About Smash Bros World of Light" and "Something About Smash Bros. The Subspace Emissary" despite being a major antagonist both times.

* CoverVersion: Phantom Ganon performs his own (text-to-speech) rendition of "Suavamente" by Puerto Rican singer Elvis Crespo in "Something About Zelda Ocarina of Time PART 2: The FOREST TEMPLE"; a full-length version of Phantom Ganon's performance was given [[https://youtu.be/EM3HuNmOSYY its own video]] the following day.

** ''Something About Zelda: Ocarina of Time Part 2'' has Phantom Ganon singing ''Suavamente'' in RoboSpeak and deflecting his TennisBoss projectiles back at Link while fluidly dancing.

** The second "Ocarina of Time" episode features Phantom Ganon randomly prattling off the Spanish-language lyrics to Elvis Crespo's "Suavamente", both to tie back to the ''Ronaldinho Soccer 64'' joke from part one and as a reference to part two's release during Hispanic Heritage Month.

** Link, Zelda and the Kokiri in "Ocarina of Time" are all voiced by TTS from [=AcapelaBox=]. Phantom Ganon meanwhile is voiced in a Spanish-language text-to-speech program, most of which is dedicated to prattling off the lyrics to "Suavamente" by Elvis Crespo.

** In "Something About Smash Bros The Subspace Emissary," after Tabuu shoots the Great Fox with his EyeBeam in retaliation to its laser, Peppy gives Fox a DopeSlap.

* AdaptationExplanationExtrication: In "Something About Pokemon Legends Arceus", [[spoiler:Volo confronts Akari]] and reveals that they possess the Ghost Plate, but the significance of such a reveal is missing because any mention of the other Plates beforehand had been removed.

** Storm Eagle is canonically the most noble of Sigma's mavericks, often depicted as being either ForcedIntoEvil or being an outright mole for the Hunters. In "Mega Man X: Storm Eagle's Revenge", he becomes more openly mallicious and spiteful towards X, though this is likely due to being reprogrammed by Serges.

* DelayedRippleEffect: In "Something About Pokémon Legends: Arceus", the effects of Akari killing Volo don't catch up to his descendant Cynthia until TheStinger, at which point she is RetGone.

* WeaksauceWeakness: In "Something About Pokémon Legends: Arceus", after cutting down most of Akari's Pokémon, Noble Kleavor is dispatched with a single Water Gun from her shiny Psyduck.

** "''VideoGame/PokemonLegendsArceus''" ends with Akari using Abra to teleport Volo off the side of the mountain to his doom. The stinger shows Cynthia being [[CessationOfExistence painfully erased from time]] because her ancestry no longer existed.

''Something About[...]'', also known as the ''Something Series'', is a series of parody animations made by a certain Creator/JeremyChinshue, also known as [=TerminalMontage=]. The episodes are often condensed over-the-top parodies of video games, with lots of strange events, running gags, and the occasional sensory abuse... and a bit of MemeticMutation, too!

* AbnormalAmmo: Wiz sends a car, a train and a full-sized ''cargo ship'' at the Kirbs in "Something about Kirby & the Amazing Mirror".

** Website/YouTube's spam bots are just that, spam bots, and while annoying are easy to deal with and ignore. "Something About Spam Bots" interrprets them instead as a large mass of wires and metal, the ends of which are connected to deformed copies of whoever it's trying to immitate, all speaking in the same lifeless voice.

* AdaptationalContextChange: "Something About Kirby & The Amazing Mirror" has the Kir Bros directly chase Dark Mega Knight around the Mirror World instead of collecting fragments of the Dimension Mirror to rescue Meta Knight. As a result, the heroes never visit Radish Ruins since Dark Meta Knight was the original boss of the area.

** [[VideoGame/MegaManX4 Magma Dragoon]], [[VideoGame/MegaManX3 Mac]] and [[VideoGame/MegaManX2 Green Biker Dude]] are the other badasses posing next to Zero in Something about Mega Man X.

** In "Something about Kirby & The Amazing Mirror", While the Kirbo Gang are at Olive Ocean, they are stalked (and later attacked) by a shark that seems to heavily resemble Baby Shark, complete with a Instrumental DarkReprise of the aforementioned shark's {{Leitmotif}} as it tries to eat them.

** Most of the penultimate or final bosses are taken out [[CurbStompBattle by a single attack]] by the hero. A RunningGag involves Meta Knight preparing for a dramatic showdown like in the games, only to be immediately destroyed by Kirbo with ease ("Super Star" has Kirbo simply throw his sword into Meta Knight's face to kill him at the start of the fight, and "Adventure" has Kirbo [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill use a pistol, a bazooka, and a nuke]] before Meta Knight can even do anything). Bowser probably gets this the worst since he's always slapped around with little resistance from his part.

** Link from ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime'' seems to be becoming this as of "Something About Zelda Ocarina of Time: The FIRE TEMPLE" as he ends up bumbling through the titular dungeon, getting constantly crushed by rocks, getting stuck (and subsequently incinerated multiple times) in the fire maze (with one route he takes resulting in a firewall ''on all four sides''), getting pelted by the spinning floor tiles until he runs out of the room, and being completely inept at facing the Fire Dancer until Navi pulls out the Hookshot and has him use it. He doesn't even defeat Volvagia himself. Instead, Volvagia dies due to the cucco in Link's pocket getting caught in the former's fire breath and proceeding to summon the [[VideoGameCrueltyPunishment infamous cucco swarm]] that literally ''eats Volvagia alive and reduces it to a skeleton''.

** Roy, Wendy and Larry are all missing from "Something About Super Mario World" due to Mario destroying their castles without going inside. [[spoiler:Mario kicks Roy's castle into the Valley of Bowser entrance, then hurls Wendy's castle into the gaping hole so it destroys Larry's castle.]]
** "Something About Kirby's Adventure" skips over the boss fights for Paint Roller [[note]]Replaced with a segment of Kirby encountering Meta Knight and the Meta Knights for the first time[[/note]], Heavy Mole [[note]]Yogurt Yard is destroyed when Grape Gardens' castles crumble and fall onto it.[[/note]] and Nightmare Orb [[note]]Nightmare Wizard is exorcised from the Fountain of Dreams and crashes into the moon.[[/note]]. Since the video only mentions the Star Rod once at the beginning, the plot relevance of the bosses is largely overlooked.
** G, The Tower, and The Magician are all absent from "Something About [[VideoGame/HouseOfTheDead The Typing of the Dead]]", [[spoiler:with the latter not even getting a meme replacement like The Emperor does.]]

** "Something About Undertale - Alternate Pacifist Route" is based on the True Pacifist Route (indicated by [[spoiler:Frisk successfully freeing the monsters from the underground]]), but skips over all of the befriending sequences, [[spoiler:the True Lab (and consequently the Amalgamates), and the final battle with Asriel]], the latter of which is owed to the fact that [[spoiler:Flowey immediately dies at the start when Frisk's corpse lands on him]]. The video also omits the detail of seven human [=SOULs=] [[spoiler:or six human [=SOULs=] and all of the monster [=SOULs=] in Underground, as per the actual True Pacifist Route]] being needed to fully destroy the Barrier, a major plot point in the original game; instead Asgore does so by tossing Frisk's corpse at it.
** "Something About Kirby 64" omits the game's prologue, leaving Ripple Star's fate unknown until Kirbo and company arrive there. The boss fights against Adeleine and King Dedede are skipped over: for the former, Kirbo destroys Adeleine's canvas and thus her method of attack, so Dark Matter sees no need to possess her, and for the latter Kirbo scares Dark Matter off before it's able to take full control of Dedede. The events of Aqua Star are also completely skipped over due to Kirbo swallowing the planet whole. In Shiver Star, Kirbo destroys HR-H before it can transform into HR-E.

*** After being swatted down by the Spyborg in Sector X, Slippy crashes in Titania. During the briefing, he's seen screaming in agony his cockpit as the Goras finds him and beats him to a pulp. While the team leaves him for dead and prepares to land on Macbeth, Slippy is still lying unconscious, Falco is 'looking at his phone', while Peppy is the only one concerned for his teammate.

* SurpriseCreepy:

* YouFool: The Yoshis collectively have this reaction in "Something About Yoshi's Story" when Baby Bowser smashes the Super Happy Tree [[SurpriseCreepy and winds up unleashing the unholy hordes of Hell upon the world]]. [[ApocalypseNot Fortunately, they stop when]] they [[DraggedOffToHell drag baby Bowser down with them.]]

** Generally, the heroes are depicted as much more destructive and violent than they are in their home series. Kirby especially.
