Character mistake: When the first case's true murderer is KO'd by Phoenix's amazing attorney skills, he is carried away from the courtroom. The Judge then asks to the prosecutor, "Mr Payne, your client?" He should have obviously asked, "Mr Payne, your witness?" And that's exactly what he asks in the Trilogy remake, that fixes this mistake.

Character mistake: After Clinton's phone call, Christine talks with her assistant and making fun of the "mourning", she says "We went directly to Streisand's opening at the Sands right from the cemetery." However, in Vegas Barbra Streisand never performed at the Sands; she did the International (then Hilton) and the Riviera. (00:05:15)

Character mistake: During the dénouement, Benoit Blanc starts "That night, Lionel faxed Andi's email to Miles." But it's established that he faxed it minutes after receiving the mail, which was sent at 4 pm. 4 pm in May, that's hardly 'night'. And it can't be night where Lionel is, since he shows up a little later together with Claire, from Connecticut, at the house of the victim in the New York area. (01:52:25)

Character mistake: In the flashback, Blanc tells Helen that when Miles will pull him aside to explain his presence, that is when it will be her chance to 'snoop'. However, that piece of dialogue is just unnecessarily wrong since the whole distraction with Miles lasts just a few minutes, does not facilitate at all her snooping, and all the other guests are in their rooms just unpacking and hanging out. If anything, Miles keeping the other guests entertained and gathered together is what would facilitate her. (01:25:45)

Character mistake: Miles is playing on the beach a tune that Birdie Jay recognizes instantly as Blackbird by the Beatles, and Miles flexes saying that it's the exact guitar Paul wrote it on. That'd be difficult though, since it's a right handed guitar, and McCartney plays left handed (albeit he can play right handed too). You could argue that this is one of the hints that Miles is not very smart. (00:20:00)

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: The screen showing the cemetery inside Arzenal is full of tombs with utter gibberish names (like Tsliap Stliow, who died in GXVI, apparently, whatever year G is) - Some of this creative engraving does not even fall in the proper physical boundaries of the stone. And it's also labeled "CemetAry."

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: One of the possible lines of the more heroic soldiers of Gamillas is "Even underestimate a Zaltzian." It should be "Never", not "Even."

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: Sousuke Sagara's profile says that he does not care for the Arbalest or "it's AI." Should be its, possessive.

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: Fighting against the Yamato, Schultz might say "Terron monkeys! How did they build a faster than a light speed spacecraft?" One "a" too many.

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: During Scenario 12 "The Dispeller of Chaos", Sumeragi makes her first appearance in the game botching her very first line as she says "I am IMPRESESED you've actually MAKE yourself a decoy."

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: A few times during the game (for instance in Haruki's biography) the expression "Coup d'état " is not visualized correctly, with the accented letter replaced by a dot.

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: One of Jamie's lines against the Para-mails is "Even a beautiful machine can be spoilt when a harlot is at the controls." She says that line even against Tusk's, the one (unambiguosly) male pilot of that kind of vehicle.

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: One of the possible lines the AI units have facing Getter Robot is "Confirming unit that uses Getter Rays." It's the other way around; 'confirming THAT (the) unit uses Getter Rays'.

Super Robot Wars X

Character mistake: During scenario 47: Successors to the Stars, Captain Nemo has a dialogue where he says "Lend me your aid! Help me defeat Gargoyle and RECUE Nadia", in an obvious misspell of "rescue."

Street Fighter

Character mistake: In the rightmost part of Gen's stage, there is a store called "Siu Wah Bargagain Center", obviously with a misspelling of "Bargain."

Hard Times (1975)

Character mistake: In the first fight, there's a reaction shot where Speed shouts jubilant "Yes, yes!" when his own fighter misses with his attack and doubles over hit by a painful kick in the gut. That's a mighty weird thing to cheer on. (00:07:00)

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: Before Scenario 12: The Dispeller of Chaos, the dialogue featuring Ruri has a couple of repetitions who are not part of her character and never appear again in the rest of the game; talking to Misumu, she says "What would that would be", and to the Aesti pilots she says "But first there's someone I want to to [...] first."

Super Robot Wars V

Character mistake: One of the most commonly used line from Gamilla's battleship officers is "Terrons are possessed for fearsome battle tactics", when they obviously mean "Terrons possess fearsome battle tactics."
