* From the 8-bit, 2-D era, the ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (video game)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]'' NES game had crates as a primary means of defeating enemies (either by throwing them, or hiding inside and waiting for an enemy to trip over it). They came in two varieties—disposable wooden crates and stackable metal ones. All small enough for a chipmunk to lift.

* A fair few ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' games from ''[[Sonic Adventure 2]]'' through to ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006 video game)||Sonic the Hedgehog 2006]]'' have crates. In ''Sonic Adventure 2'' you can get power ups to be able to break metal crates, and in [[Sonic Heroes]] only the power formation can break the metal crates. ''Sonic The Hedgehog (2006)'' is the worst offender though as they are everywhere, usually used for Silver's physics puzzles. The crates are even 200 years in the future, in Crisis City and Flame Core, both ravaged by Iblis's flames. So how the hell do the crates still remain there?

** Hell, even ''[[Sonic Adventure]]'' had some. There were a few at the very beginning of Red Mountain, though they weren't really used for anything other than somewhere to put a couple of [[Mecha Mook|robot monkeys]].
