* NamesTheSame: The "Namco Corporation" credited isn't the same [[Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment Namco]] known for works [[UsefulNotes/ArcadeGame of the same genre]] such as ''VideoGame/PacMan''. This is also the [[OneBookAuthor only known work of them under this name]].

* The game was a meme in both Chinese and English-speaking western internet, but the two memes are surprisingly distinct. The Chinese-speaking internet picked up on the game in 2007 and parodied the hell out of it because of its hilarious Mario sprite and weird Traditional Chinese characters, before the meme died off. The English-speaking internet learned about the game a few years later and used Mario's sprite as WebAnimation/YouTubePoop material, with "Fortran" as his name and "PUSH START TO RICH" as a sub-meme, and this meme died off too. Around 5 years later, the English-speaking internet meme was revived much later after 7 Grand Dad (a bootleg version of ''VideoGame/TheFlintstonesTheRescueOfDinoAndHoppy'' game that reused "Fortran"'s sprite in Dian Shi Ma Li) became a meme [[HistoryRepeats and this meme eventually died off as well after a while]].

* FanNickname:
** The game has been nicknamed Mario Lottery.
** Technically, Fortran is a fan nickname too since the Mario sprite has no given name.
