Do you know any gaming trivia that is a secret to everybody?

Share below and help create a more informed forum community.

Here's a favourite of mine for its quirkiness: after the demise of the Atari Jaguar, the case moulds were sold and then used to house dental cameras.

They even kept the cartridge slot and used it for modular memory upgrades for the dental camera.

Oh oh I got one!

Donkey Kong's name was supposed to be Monkey Kong. But due to a translation error, his name was translated into Donkey Kong instead. Hence why his face is like a split between a Monkey and a Donkey.

Proof that things happen for a reason...

Many third parties were not going to support PS1 but Virtua fighter brought loads of support to the system after it released. SEGA sealed their own fate essentially. Proof in this video at 12:27 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YB2v7yv6tiM

Did you know that the Xbox 360 Live vision camera can connect to a PS3, the PSP can be used to transfer wallpapers or watch videos on an Xbox 360, or that controllers like the PS3 controller or Wii Remotes are compatible with Ouya?
