* There are shout outs to VideoGame/MegaManClassic in all 3 forms of Gigapon. The text for Gigapon describes him as having a strong sense of justice; his evolution, Protopon, has a sword and shield, like [[VideoGame/MegaManX Zero]] and Proto Man; the third form, Soul, is described as the spirit of justice who fights for never-ending peace. All three robots look similar to Mega Man; Soul even has a jewel on his forehead. There's another reference in Negapon, an {{Expy}} of Bass. His later evolutions resemble Slash Man from ''7'', as well. Clearly, someone from Red Entertainment was a Capcom fan.
* An NPC says "[[ZeroWing All your vegetables are belong to me]]!" His wife apologizes for his poor grammar.

* Dr. Zero's floating fortress of doom, the Death Gaia, bears a resemblance to one of [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic Dr. Wily's]] castles.
* At a costume convention, you meet a man dressed as a convict, he claims to be a [[VideoGame/StreetFighterAlpha character from a fighting game]].
** Ralph's description says he is a [[StreetFighter "a fighter who travels the world searching for new enemies to fight"]] and [[http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/robopon/images/c/cc/047c_Luke.png/revision/latest?cb=20130128002524 Luke being suspiciously similar to Ryu]].
* The only overt Pokemon reference comes in the form of a Gateball, which captures cute monsters that can only be seen with a special scope.
