*The Blast-o-Matic is mentioned in K. Rool's [[Trophy (Super Smash Bros. series)|trophy]] description in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''.

*Elements of the Blast-o-Matic's design resemble the [[jiggywikki:Big-O-Blaster|Big-O-Blaster]] from ''{{wp|Banjo-Tooie}}'', and even had a similar purpose and naming convention. As both ''Donkey Kong 64'' and ''Banjo Tooie'' were created by Rare within the same time period, the similarity was most likely intentional.
