* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: [[VideoGame/PunchOut Little Mac]] is treated as a C-list Nintendo character who hasn't had a game in years (his last full game being 1994's ''Super Punch-Out!!'' and the last acknowledgement of the series in general being the [[GameWithinAGame inclusion of]] ''Super'' and its protagonist as a GuestFighter in the UsefulNotes/NintendoGameCube version of 2005's ''Fight Night Round 2''). This predates the 2009 reboot that made him popular again.

* ValuesDissonance: Birdo in this game received dissonance twice. At the time of release, trans people were still a general "unknown" to the mainstream in many countries and weren't allowed in children's works without [[ShesAManInJapan references to them being trans being removed]]. Thus, this was one issue that led the game to [[NoExportForYou stay in Japan]]. Years later, with more trans characters in the media, the jokes about Birdo would likely be deemed offensive and transphobic in many areas.
