• No Export for You: The manga was never officially published in English.
  • Strangely inverted with the NES game. Its Famicom counterpart was canceled despite being heavily promoted in ads and previewed in several magazines and videos.
• Recycled Script: The final two stages in Strider 2 consists of a fight atop the warship Balrog and inside the Third Moon space station, just like in the first arcade game.
• Short Run In America!: The NES version (as there was no Famicom release).
• Talking to Himself: Kosuke Toriumi voices both Hiryu and Hien in Strider 2.
• What Could Have Been: Strider Hiryu's return for the canceled Capcom Fighting All-Stars. In 3D.
  • Notably, his skillset would have been toned down considerably from Marvel vs. Capcom, with his Cypher only being utilized in specials and supers.
• Working Title: For the original arcade game, the English version was almost changed to "The Falcon" before release.
