Trivia / Hard Edge

• Colbert Bump: From Retsupurae. It's no stretch to say that Retsupurae are the only reason the game hasn't languished in obscurity. Back when the Wrongpurae for the game was made, the trio riffing it even noted that, at the time, the game had a single line of text on its Wikipedia page; now the Wikipedia page actually has sales data, a synopsis, and more. This even extends to the speedrunning scene, as the longplay Retsupurae watched revealed a door speedrunners weren't aware of that cut back on backtracking; in his marathon run of Hard Edge for Summer Games Done Quick 2015, runner CaveManDCJ points out that Retsupurae saved his runs quite a bit of time.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: North American and European versions of the game did not get a digital re-release of the game unlike Japan.
• No Export for You: The game's strategy guide was released only in Japan. The PlayStation Network PSOne Classics re-release also stayed in Japan. There was also a 1/8 scale figurine of Rachel that also never got released elsewhere.
