* MoodWhiplash: Initially, the final boss looks ominously threatening. After defeating it, it gains the usual FunnyAfro and falls down like the other bosses... except this is actually a VictoryFakeout. You'll see the boss still lingering below you, and when you shoot at it, it'll rise up as disco music is playing, and its afro turns out to be another machine. GainaxEnding indeed.

''Face Raiders'' is a video game for the Nintendo3DS which is included with every Nintendo3DS system. You take a picture of someone's face. The game sticks the face onto some enemies. You then wave the 3DS around, while viewing your actual surroundings as the background through the video camera, and shoot their face. It's as trippy as it sounds.
