Line 470:
** "Bear put these on vehicle so float. If not enough, vehicle sink, like this game at market." -- Mumbo
** In fact, almost all of the humor in the game is derived from how much the game sucks, gaming has left Rare behind, etc. Is it just a show of typical sardonic Brit humor, or did the company truly have no confidence in their own product whatsoever?
* In ''[[Punch Out]]''
** King Hippo sometimes mocks his own weight:
{{quote|'''King Hippo:''' Do you like my new trunks? They are size XXX Large! Ha, ha, ha!}}
:* Bear Hugger from the Wii version is a meta example. Providing the current page image for [[Canada, Eh?]], he's a [[Mighty Lumberjack]] and [[Mountain Man]] who drinks maple syrup, loves hockey as both a spectator and player, has a ''lot'' of chest hair, calls his opponents "hosers", and occassionally says "Eh?" when his punch misses. This fits the Trope when you realize Next Level Games (who made the Wii version) is a Canadian company.
* ''[[Ace Attorney|Ace Attorney Investigations]]'' features Miles Edgeworth as protagonist instead of Phoenix Wright. This is used to make fun of some of the weirder things that happened in previous games. For example, upon examining a fire extinguisher Edgeworth muses how silly it would be to get hit on the head with it and lose your memory. {{spoiler|This is the framing device for the first case tutorial of ''Justice For All''.}}
** ''[[Apollo Justice]]: [[Ace Attorney]]'' constantly makes fun of the series cliches. For example, Apollo gets told of off for shouting out "HOLD IT!" to loud in court. Phoenix also reminisces on the times when he used to present evidence to people through the present button and how he would shout out "hold it" for no apparent reason just to scare people.
