History Trivia / Snatcher

* NoExportForYou: All versions except the UsefulNotes/SegaCD one never made it outside of Japan with an English script. Speaking of, see RemadeForTheExport.

* FanTranslation: The [=MSX2=] version received a fan translation into Portuguese in 2002, and English in 2003.

* TheWikiRule: [[http://snatcher.wikia.com/wiki/Snatcher_Wiki The Snatcher Wiki]].

* ChristmasRushed: The [=MSX2=] version of ''Snatcher'' was clearly this, resulting in a PortingDisaster. See the [[YMMV/{{Snatcher}} YMMV tab]] for details.
* {{Defictionalization}}: [[http://lparchive.org/Snatcher-(Screenshot)/chapter26.html Now you too can enjoy the delicacy that is Neo Kobe Pizza!]] Folks from [[http://www.destructoid.com/neo-kobe-pizza-a-snatcher-inspired-dinner-in-pictures-130519.phtml Destructoid]] tried it as well. Verdict? Even ''better'' than conventional pizza.

* HistoryRepeats: The first two releases of ''Snatcher'', from 1988, were [[NoEnding missing an ending]], and simply cut the story short without even a cliffhanger. As fate would have it, Hideo Kojima ended up making ''another'' game 27 years later, with [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolidVThePhantomPain exactly the same problem.]]
%%* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Due to many potential copyright infringement issues (early versions even had direct reference to ''Franchise/{{Alien}}'', which was removed in the Sega CD version and onward), it's unlikely any port will be re-released without heavy edits.
* NoDubForYou: The PC Engine CD version was officially released in the US and Europe in 2020 on the [=TurboGrafx-16=] Mini and PC Engine [=CoreGrafx=] Mini '''without any translation'''. (Still notable, in that this was the first time that ''Snatcher'' had ever been reissued in any form.)

** RemadeForTheExport: The Sega CD port was made specifically for an English localization, as there was no release for the Japanese Mega CD.

* TranslationCorrection: In a remarkable display of [[AsianSpeekeeEngrish Engrish]], JUNKER originally stood for "Judgment Uninfected Naked Kind & Execute Ranger." In the Sega CD version, it was changed to the somewhat more logical "Japanese Undercover Neuro-Kinetic Elimination Ranger."

* TranslationCorrection: JUNKER originally stood for "Judgment Uninfected Naked Kind & Execution Ranger," a random string of English words that doesn't have any coherent meaning together. In the Sega CD version, it was changed to the (slightly) more sensible "Japanese Undercover Neuro-Kinetic Elimination Ranger."

* CrackIsCheaper: A good way to tell if a collector is a person of means? They have ''this'' game in their collection. The Sega CD disc ''alone'' routinely goes for multiple hundreds of dollars. A complete package, you'll be lucky if it's under a ''thousand.''
