Cameos

The following are Kunio-kun characters who make a guest appearance.

• Kunio and Riki: The two are able to be spotted cheering in the background of Hurtling Hurdles and Dodgeball Demolition.
• Ryūichi and Ryūji Hattori: The Dragon Twins are able to be spotted in the crowd during Gourmet Gauntlet.

Trivia

• During Hurtling Hurdles, players will pass through a family's house. This is a direct reference to the screen from the Cross Country event in Downtown Nekketsu March: Super-Awesome Field Day! and it's remake, River City Super Sports Challenge ~All Stars Special~.
  • The elephant slide from the Cross Country event can be seen in the background of Golshi's Grand Adventure 2.
• The special "Come Get Some!" title featuring Gold Ship is in reference to one of Kunio's quotes and the pose he'd strike on logos and promotional art.
