These are what we call the 'YMMV items.' Things that some people find in this work. We call them 'your mileage might vary' because not everyone sees these things in the same way. This starts discussions in the trope lists, a thing we don't want. Please use the discussion page if you'd like to discuss any of these items.
Follow the Leader: The game was endlessly ripped off by other Japanese games companies, both straight clones and also variations - one of which, the 3D-isometric Congo Bongo, was foreshadowing-ly made by Sega.
Gannon-Banned: Go ahead and say that the girl in the original game is Peach. I dare ya. Not helped by Peach actually replacing her in the Modern version of the G&W version in Game & Watch Gallery 2.

Nightmare Fuel: In Donkey Kong 3, when Stanley loses a life, all the enemy bugs on the screen swarm his lifeless body, and when they leave, nothing is left but his spray bottle.
Sequel Displacement: Many people born in modern times think that Mario debuted with Super Mario Bros. Likewise, there exists a small group of people who think, or at least once thought, that Donkey Kong made his debut in Donkey Kong Country.
