Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire trivia picture

Trivia: The opening level of this game is a recreation of the Battle of Hoth, where you play as Dash in a snow speeder as part of Rogue Squadron taking down AT-ATs and AT-STs in that iconic battle. While the rest of the game got mixed reception, this opening level was a high point of reviews and reception to the game, so much so that the entirety of the game Star Wars: Rogue Squadron was inspired by and created just because of this first Hoth level, and subsequently Battle for Naboo on the N64 as well.

Trivia: Some people have questioned why a Wampa would be found on the planet Gall in this game, when Wampas are native to Hoth. "The cliff Wampa is actually the result of Imperial bioengineering. The Empire was so impressed by this powerful creature, who you'll remember did maul several of their vaunted stormtroopers on Hoth, that they managed to capture some and adapt them to various environments to be used almost like a vicious guard dog." - Game Director John Knoles.
