Trivia / FusionFall

Go To

  • Common Knowledge: That there were intentions to bring in Bleedman (of Powerpuff Girls Doujinshi fame) for the game's development. However, the original design documents and the fact that only Bleedman has said this makes the veracity of this claim highly unlikely.
  • Early Draft Tie-In: The "manga" used ten year old Ben instead of fifteen year old Ben. This was because Ben was originally meant to appear in his preteen form.
  • Dueling Games: Sorta. Considering that Cartoon Network is rivals with Nickelodeon, compare the plot of this game to that of the fourth Nicktoons Unite! game, Globs of Doom (which was released three months before FusionFall). The most significant difference is that while the Nicktoons Unite games are single player console affairs, FusionFall was a MMO. Nick doesn't have their own Nicktoons MMO as of 2022.
  • No Export for You: The game had a "coming soon" page in some parts of Asia and the South Pacific for a looooonnnnng time.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: FusionFall contained vocal reprisals of various characters. These original lines have been archived by fans and are reused in the revivals.
  • The Other Darrin
  • Role Reprise: Almost every voice actor from the original shows note  reprise their roles for the game.
  • Screwed by the Lawyers: Hanna-Barbera characters like Scooby-Doo were off-limits due to them being owned by Warner Bros. Despite this, the Hani-Baba Temple is named after William Hanna and Joe Barbera, and their characters (specifically Fred Flintstone, Scooby Doo, Top Cat, Quick Draw McGraw, Yogi Bear and George Jetson) make cameos as etchings on various obelisks scattered across the world.
  • What Could Have Been:
    • Originally, Ben was going to be in his child form, but it was replaced with his 15-16 year old incarnation before release. However, Kid!Ben was slated to be a Nano in the future.
    • Vilgax was also to be based on his original counterpart, but they changed it to his Alien Force counterpart. Like with Ben, though, Vilgax's nano still bears resemblance to his original look.
    • The Null Void Ship, Chowder's mouth, Vilgax's ship, Ice King's Castle, the zoo from Generator Rex, and Mount Neverest were planned to be level 37+ areas originally.
    • Lazlo was supposed to appear as an NPC, but was scrapped after the developers failed to come up with a design for him.
    • Concept Art for animesque versions of Adam of My Gym Partner's a Monkey and Andy from Squirrel Boy exist. They ultimately weren't added into the games.
    • Nanos of Ghostfreak and Upgrade were replaced with Swampfire and Humungosaur.
      • Before the game was cancelled, there was a preview of Nanos of Bobo Haha, Spidemonkey, Ultimate Wildmutt, Lodestar, Waybig and Ultimate Big Chill on the Code Nano Page.
