* MovieMultipack: Due to the UsefulNotes/{{Atari 2600}} version only having enough memory for three screens from the original version's ten, a Volume 2 was developed that had three additional screens from the original.

Badass Mustache and Badass Beard are being merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with masculinity in some way. Please read the trope description before readding to make sure the example qualifies.


* BadassBeard: Bob has one, at least on the game box cover. He also has it in ''Miner 2049er Again!''

An official sequel, ''Bounty Bob Strikes Back!'', was released in 1984, featuring up to 25 levels and new types of transport mechanisms and traps, while an unofficial sequel called ''Miner 2049er II'' was released that same year by Micro Fun for the Apple [=IIe=]. This game was also the reason ''VideoGame/ManicMiner'' got its name - MatthewSmith originally wanted to call his game ''Miner 2049er'', but this game came out first and the publishers had the copyright on the name.
