- Executive Meddling: You might be wondering why his codename in Japanese is written in Kanji instead of Katakana like the other characters or his real name. That's because the Katakana variation of his name sounded a bit too close to "Ladin" (as in, "Osama Bin Ladin," the leader of al Qaida and the mastermind behind 9/11) for people's comforts due to the game having a similar plot to the 9/11 attacks, and it being released just a few months after the 9/11 attacks.
- The Other Darrin: Going by pre-release info, Raiden's going to be voiced by Toshiyuki Morikawa in Metal Gear Solid Rising. And according to Quinton Flynn's official site and Twitter, he has yet to be approached to reprise the voice. However, the English trailer for Rising confirms that, yes, he is still going to be voiced by Flynn.
- Similarly, in the English version of Secret Theatre film Metal Gear Raiden: Snake Eraser, Raiden was voiced by Charlie Schlatter (in other words, Raikov) instead of Quinton Flynn either because he was unavailable or the localizers wanted to make the similarities between Raiden and Raikov more apparent.
