** When designing characters for [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros64 the original game]] on the [[Platform/Nintendo64 N64]], Creator/MasahiroSakurai and the team at Creator/HALLaboratory had the freedom to go hog wild with Captain Falcon's moveset. He comes from ''VideoGame/FZero'', a racing game with absolutely no gameplay taking place outside of his vehicle, so there was absolutely no canon inspiration to pull from. So they gave him some basic attacks, applied the fire element to them, and had him be as flashy as possible. This design philosophy spawned the Falcon Punch, an attack where Captain Falcon winds up for a devastating punch that's powered by an explosion in the shape of an actual falcon. He also uses the Falcon Kick, which is faster but weaker than the punch, and the Knee of Justice, which explodes when connecting with the sweet spot.

* Some home versions of ''[[VideoGame/MortalKombat3 Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3]]'' introduced a finishing move called the Brutality, a series of punches and kicks that end with an explosive punch, turning your opponent into a shower of bones and other assorted gore, far more than what should have come out of their bodies. Brutalities returned in ''Mortal Kombat Trilogy'' and have featured sporadically in the series since then.
