** Before the game was released, [[GiantEnemyCrab Brachyura]] was known as Blacula due to a fan's mistranslation.
** This game gets the moniker of being the ''VideoGame/MetroidFusion'' of the series, due to the linearity. Both games are divided into several small areas which are visited in a specific order according to objectives given to by a male NPC (Samus's AI partner and Barlowe) rather than being one large, interconnected world, the main characters start out ''far'' weaker than usual for their respective series, making bosses and enemies considerably tough, and both Fusion Samus and Shanoa gain new abilities by absorbing something taken from their fallen enemies (X-parasites and glyphs).
** "The Creator/SamuelLJackson Attack" - Shanoa's Nitesco + Weapon Glyph union from ''Order of Ecclesia'' that resembles a giant purple lightsaber, just like Master Windu's weapon of choice in ''Franchise/StarWars''.

* FranchiseKiller: Not actually this game, per se, but prior to Ecclesia, the ''Castlevania'' series had a 2D {{Metroidvania}} installment every year or so. In 2008, Konami has not released another one. This is due to Konami making the Lords of Shadow games and later ceasing production of any older timeline games at all, and less with sales of Ecclesia which were pretty good all things considered and slightly above Portrait of Ruin.
