In American McGee's Alice, the Cheshire Cat has tatoos. "Well, there's more than one way to skin a cat, if you'll pardon the expression." "Most unpleasant metaphor. Please avoid it in the future." !SPOILER SPOILER! He also gets decapitated, then brought back to life after the tentacly Red Queen/Alice's Insanity gets killed !END SPOILER END SPOILER!

In the games Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee and Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus, if you don't save the Modokens like you're supposed to and instead kill them all (because it's "more fun" for some players), then you'll regret it at the end, because Abe'll die. !SPOILER SPOILER! In Oddysee, he gets lowered into a meatgrinder. In Exoddus, he gets electricuted to death. !END SPOILER END SPOILER! It's not surprising: you're supposed to be the savior of your people, but you can make them die in so many ways, including: fall to their doom ("Weaaaaaaaaaaa!" DOON DOON DOON!), crushed (SPLAT! DOON DOON DOON! "Woops."), elecricuted ("Weaaaaaaaaaaa!" DOON DOON DOON!), chopped up (chink-SPLAT! DOON DOON DOON!), eaten (-Insert Paramite hiss here- "Puah!" SPLAT! DOON DOON DOON! -Insert the noises Paramites make when they chew on meat here-), shot ("FREEZE!" RATATATATATA "PUAH!" DOON DOON DOON! "Huh-huh-huh!"), or even beaten to death ("Puah! Puah! Puah! Puah! Puah!" Tsssss...DOON DOON DOON! "Huh-huh-huh! Woh. Tska-tska. Woh.").

In the RPG "Planescape: Torment," there is a chaste succubus named Fall-From-Grace who runs a Brothel of Intellectual Lusts, where the girls all provide some sort of mental stimulation instead of physical. You can add her to your party, and she has a diary in her inventory that, unfortunately, can never be read. Seriously. You can't even get a single glimpse in the entire game. You can ask her, "Can I read your diary?" And she's like, "No." And you gotta believe her, unfortunately.

In Resident Evil 4, you can kill cows.

In Mega Man Legends (1 & 2) you can change the Mega Man's armor color.

TANT R has the same graphics as Bonanza Bros.

In Quest for Glory V: Dragon Fire, if you throw a rock at a villager, the villager will splatter into bloody chunks, the game will say "You quickly kill this poor person," you will no longer be able to enter any buildings because you are "dangerous," and the guards of Silmaria will come to kill you. You can also:

-Marry one of four women, one of whom used to be a vampire, one of whom is this slightly weird fairy paladin-ette (though not weird in a bad way), one of whom is a blonde warrior with a hot accent, and one of whom is a shmexy bellydancer with an annoying pet parrot.
-Give flowers to a minotaur. Say you have 38 and you mean to give him one. He'll take them all and say, "Toro like smell pretty flowers. Like eat pretty flowers, too."
-Throw a pizza. SPLAT!
-Fight Ceberus so he'll let you into hades.
-Bribe Ceberus with chocolate, tacos, and pizza so he'll let you into Hades. "So I have a sweet tooth. Sue me."
-Steal a stone called The Blackbird, which is basically a parody of the Maltese Falcon, complete with a fat man and a guy with a Peter Lorre-like voice who sells information.
-Kick a magical gazebo with a wizard hat on top of it.
-Kick the corpse of the dead villain.
-Become King.
-Die trying.
-Mosh your ass off with a bunch of crazy dryads.
-Eat some chocolate that has been poisoned and, well, die.

In Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, you can have sex with a malkavian woman who has a split personality. And you can get a nude photograph of her and put it on the wall of your apartment. Seriously. You never see any real nudity, though.

In Zelda Majora's Mask, you can see a Mario's mask.

In street fighter 2 turbo for snes you get different credits depending on difficulty setting and how well you play. If you complete 8 stars without losing a single round after the credits roll you see a splash screen with your character with the caption "Congratulations, you have mastered (your character)!"

In Metal Gear Solid 3, the camera sucks >_<

In Empire Earth II,the koreans can make hwarang calvary which are effective against enemy civilians if used effectively.

Unknown thinks that Bowser is AS EVIL AS HITLER!

In The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, there's a Keaton mask in the Nintendo Gallery.

If you want unlimited 1-UPs in Super Mario Bros., go to world 3-1, and become Super Mario. At the end of the level(the staircase before the end flag) you will see two turtles coming down the stairs, jump over the first one and then jump on the second one. It should hit the star and bounce back, from here jump on it and keep yourself up, after a certain number of bounces without hitting the ground, each consecutive bounce will get you a 1-up. Get as many as you want but WARNING, if you get over 100 you will get a Game Over.

In Final Fantasy IV Advance, when in the optional new dungeon, occasionally you may come across a village that is full of frogs, pigs, and minis, like one above. Many say, "I've never seen you before. Are you...local?", a reference to one of the catchphrases of the British comedy series The League of Gentlemen.

(I spotted this and forwarded it to the Final Fantasy Compendium, though they buggered it up...)
