Missingno actually exists in pokemon black/white, he was supposed to be a secret, event only pokemon that was never truly revealed, you can still find his files unused ingame, but using them will instantly corrupt your save file
Also, original missingno was originally going to be the fourth legendary bird, with his double water attacks being his unique ability, but he was scrapped but not completely, the concept was revived later and Lugia was created

And I can't say this is a fact but I may have once read (in an Iwata Asks or something) that the Nintendo DS was an accident, that someone behind its design happened to have two prototype screens next to each other and the guy wondered what a dual-screen system would be like. If this is true, it's funny to think the DS may have never been a thing if this one guy had put on of the screens somewhere else.

Did you know its called Grand Theft Auto because one of the original creators, named Grand was a notorious criminal in his youth. Games original name was "Gand's auto theft" but because the game was outsourced to taiwanese they fucked up the translation and it was way too far into development to change. So they had to go with abbreviation of GTA instead. The more you know
Batman Arkham Asylum's main character is actually based on a character from a real life popular comic book superhero
DID YOU KNOW GRAND THEFT AUTO WAS ORIGINALLY NAMED "RACE N CHASE"
