* VindicatedByHistory: The series was originally scoffed at as a ''Super Mario Bros'' ripoff, however people have since grown to like it on its own merits. The series as a whole was vindicated by ''Giana Sisters DS'' being an even better platformer and removing all the ''Mario''-like elements. The re-imaginings are now on Nintendo systems, specifically the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS and UsefulNotes/WiiU.

* CommonKnowledge: Giana does have a sister, but it's not the redheaded girl on the cover. That's Giana's SuperMode, Punk Giana. Giana's sister is a green-haired girl named Maria, who appears as Giana's twin sister in the original game (as a playable character in multiplayer) and ''Twisted Dreams'' (as the DamselInDistress), and her older sister in ''Dream Runners'' (only appearing in the storybook). She's completely absent in the Nintendo DS game.

* FirstInstallmentWins: Though the sequels are better received than the original, the original ''Giana Sisters'' is most iconic for its infamous reputation at being a ''Mario'' clone so blatant it was given a cease-and-desist.
* GrowingTheBeard: ''Twisted Dreams'' seems to be aiming for this. For one, it's not a simple run-and-jump ''Mario'' clone like it was in the past. Secondly, the level design and the music are both [[DarkerAndEdgier a far cry]] from the chipper, cute themes players were accustomed to in the previous titles.
