- Princess Peach is from the Mario series.
- Zangief and Ryu are from Street Fighter.
- Cloud Strife is from Final Fantasy VII.

- Cloud's role in the play is an allusion to the infamous Wall Market brothel infiltration sequence in Final Fantasy VII, where Cloud cross-dresses to enter the brothel and rescue Tifa.
Trivia / Info:
- Part of Pac-Man's verse (specifically the words "pack the fudge") appears to be censored on YouTube, likely for the fact that the term "fudge packer" is a derogatory term for a homosexual.
- Luis Lopez was never appeared or mentioned in the skit considering the fact that he is the protagonist in the game
Goofs / Nitpicks:
- In Final Fantasy VII, Cloud was forced by Aeris to crossdress against his will, but he reluctantly did so because he wanted to rescue Tifa.
