Trivia[]

  • In the original Famicom release, the Gang Zombie battle sprite had bloody holes (most likely gunshot wounds) on its stomach. This was removed and replaced with a tie in later versions.
    • Interestingly, the clay model contains both the tie and the blood.
    • It also shows the paper mache model with its skin in a darker color than its in-game sprite.
  • In the Mother 1 + 2 release of Mother, the color of its suit was changed from brown to green.
