* ''[[Quest for Glory]] 3'' tells the player at one point, "U C D Bs." Then adds, "Killer Bees."
* Yuzu in ''[[Devil Survivor]]'' uses [[Leet Lingo]] in all her mails.
* One of the pre-made Sims in [[The Sims|The Sims 3]] is a computer nerd called "Cycl0n3 Sw0rd".

** There's even a claim that l337speak entered the mainstream when he was introduced on [http://www.megatokyo.com/strip/9 strip #9], the most famous strip of the entire comic.
*** The whole scene parodies the "Jive-Talk" scene from the movie ''[[Airplane!]]''.
* A mad, tire-stealing caper in [[RH Junior]]'s ''[[Tallyho]]'' features a carload of zoo animals, all of whom speak in [[Leet Speak]] [[Memetic Mutation|Internet memes]]. The impressive thing about this is that a large number of them speak in ''species-appropriate'' Internet memes -- thememes—the owls' first lines of dialogue are "O RLY?

** This is assuming [[Viewers Are Goldfish|you can remember your own substitutions]].
* If you think about it, the main shtick of Chic-Fil-A is [[LOLcats|lolcows]]. Yes, we shall "can eat moar chikn".
Line 143:
* In January 2011, [[FUNimation]] tried to sue 1337 Bittorrent users over downloading ''[[One Piece]]'', the number no doubt chosen intentionally.
* [[Wil Wheaton]], [[Paul and Storm]], and [[Myth Busters|Adam Savage]] put on a music and comedy show for geeks called "W00tstock."
