* Beating the final boss in ''[[MS Saga|MS Saga: A New Dawn]]'' unlocks the [[Bonus Dungeon]]. The game even provides a small [[Lampshade Hanging]] as [[The Hero]] complains that he's about five seconds away from the [[Final Boss|ultimate battle]] to save the world when [[Mission Control]] phones in and orders him to go conquer the [[Bonus Dungeon]] instead. |

* While the mainstream ''[[Pokémon]]'' games generally utilize a [[Playable Epilogue]], in the original ''[[Pokémon Red and Blue]]'' titles, the rewards for becoming the Pokemon League Champion were limited to a "Hall of Fame" option on the PC and access to one [[Bonus Dungeon]] near Cerulean City; no one else even acknowledged the fact that the player beat the Elite Four and [[The Rival]]. |

* Defeating the [[Final Boss]] in ''[[Rogue Galaxy]]'' adds the game's [[Bonus Dungeon]] to the [[World Map|Galaxy Map]]; everything else (including the [[Now Where Was I Going Again|recap]]) is still as it was before defeating the [[Final Boss]]. An NPC within said dungeon even comments that [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|the player has already beaten the game]]. |

* The ''[[Megaman Battle Network]]'' series does this in every game, following the trope description almost exactly, with the single exception of ''4''. It also carried over to its pseudo-sequel series, ''[[Mega Man Star Force]]''. One annoying thing about this though, is that even though you beat the game? The crisis music (which plays in the regular areas -all the time- during the last part of each game) doesn't stop, besides in ''3''. |
