* Marth is far better known in the west for [[Marth Debuted in Smash Bros|appearing]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' then for being the star of his [[Fire Emblem Akaneia|own game]]. As such, outside of Japan he is more associated with [[Fire Emblem Elibe|Roy]] and [[Fire Emblem Tellius|Ike]] who aren't in the [[Non-Linear Sequel|same universe as him]] rather then characters from his own games such as [[Crutch Character|Jeigan]], Caeda, and Ogma.
* Similar to Marth, Morrigan Aensland is starting to be far better known for appearing in ''[[Marvel vs. Capcom]]'' than ''[[Darkstalkers]]''. The fact that there hasn't been a ''Darkstalkers'' since ''Vampire Savior'' probably contributes to this.
* ''[[Zero Wing]]''. Many forget that the Sega Genesis version was actually adapted from an arcade game (which ''didn't'' feature the infamous "[[All Your Base Are Belong to Us]]" intro... but had its [http://www.vgmuseum.com/end/arcade/c/zerow.htm own screwed up ending]), and ''everyone'' forgot that there was a [[Turbo Grafx]]TurboGrafx-16|TurboGrafx-CD]] port (which had a completely different plot).
* ''[[Strider Hiryu]]'' is a subversion, since it was actually a three-way collaboration between Capcom and manga studio Moto Kikaku. Moto Kikaku artist Tatsumi Wada drew the manga version, which was published first in 1988, while Capcom produced two separate video games for the project: an NES version which more or less followed the manga ([[No Export for You|but oddly enough never came out in Japan]]), and an arcade version which deviated from the other projects completely in terms of story. A common misconception is that the manga was made first without any intention of turning it into a game, but this really wasn't the case at all.
* ''[[Area 88]]'' is a Displacement Food Chain; it started off as a manga, which got adapted into a somewhat more well-known anime, which got adapted into the kinda-more-well-known arcade game (the U.S. title, ''U.N. Squadron'', only made the connection between the games and the anime/manga even more obscure), which got adapted into a well-known SNES port.
