* MultiDiscWork: While the UsefulNotes/SegaCD version only takes up one disc like its predecessor, the initial Japanese release tossed in a bonus mini CD containing two songs and a few skits between the game's characters. Meanwhile, the UsefulNotes/SegaSaturn port was released on two discs, and the UsefulNotes/PlayStation port occupied three, both due to the large quantity of [=FMVs=]. Disc 2 was reached once you finally obtained a ship, and disc 3 marked the last act of the game being reached after the goddess tower. The [=PlayStation=] version also includes a soundtrack album and a bonus disc with behind-the-scenes features.
* NoExportForYou: The UsefulNotes/SegaSaturn version of the remake, because of the fact that the Saturn had failed and virtually lost all market share in the States by the time both it and the UsefulNotes/PlayStation version were released in Japan. (There being bad blood between Vic Ireland of WD and Sega management by that point didn't help matters.)

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: In the remake, Lucia was supposed to have an entire animated musical number at Taben's Peak, just like Luna did on the boat in ''Silver Star Story'', but it had to be scrapped. Concept art also exists of older versions of the ''Silver Star'' cast, hinting that the game may have started development as a direct sequel.

* MultiDiscWork: The Sega CD version is a single disc, but the remake is either two or three discs depending on the platform. The Saturn version is split between two discs and the Playstation version is on three, thanks to its larger number cutscenes (they are also a bit less brutally compressed). The Disc 2 switch occurs when the party finally obtain a ship, and disc 3 marks the last act of the game being reached after the Goddess Tower.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Quite unlike ''Silver Star'', ''Eternal Blue'' hasn't gotten nearly as much love in terms of re-releases or remakes (with the last full physical release and print run of the game happening in 1999-2000), and as a result, physical copies have appreciated in price ''substantially'' - the Sega CD version in particular is one of the most sought-after SCD collectibles, period. And of course, no (legal) digital version was available. Though thankfully, it was eventually averted in Japan when it was announced that the SEGA CD version of ''Eternal Blue'' would be available for the Mega Drive Mini 2 in 2022, giving people a more accessible way to play the game legally. (Unfortunately, the Sega Genesis Mini 2 that was released in North America [[NoExportForYou does not have it]] or any of the other Working Designs translated games, because Sega and Victor Ireland were unable to agree on payment.)
