-The Japanese version of ''Mario Kart 64'' features several sponsors whose names and logos are puns on real companies, all of whom at the time of release were major on-track advertisers at Formula 1 auto races. This sponsor is "Yoshi 1" ([[:wikipedia:ExxonMobil|Mobil 1]]). This was taken out in the English version, presumably to prevent lawsuits of the company.
-The "Shot!" logo, even in the American version, seems to bear some resemblance to that of [[:wikipedia:Royal Dutch Shell|Shell]], largely due to the similarity of the names (it can also be considered a pun that the logo is a [[Green Shell|Koopa shell]], though Shell's logo is a stylized seashell).
