I don't know if this has already been mentioned: Michael Jackson composed the music for Sonic the Hedgehog 3, but he refused to be credited for it. For anyone who wondered who the composer was in that game, your mystery has been solved.

I KNEW the music sounded familiar.

Also, the current voice actor for Phoenix Wright is the same as Donatello from the 2003 TMNT series.
 
Spyro in Dawn of the Dragons is voiced by Elijah Wood, who is more famously known as Frodo from The Lord of the Rings films.
 
Fun Fact) "My Neighbor Totoro" is a playful, cheery spin off an actual murder involving two girls known as the Sayama Incident (Sayama is also the name of the place the movie takes place in). The Incident involved the younger sister being murdered after a ransom went wrong, and the older sister committing suicide. If you know a bit of japanese culture, the movie nicely reflects the incident. Hint: Totoro is in fact a death god.

Fun fact: Many people try to put "LOL" in the past tense by putting "ed" behind it, while the abbreviation means "laugh out loud", thus making the past tense "laugh out louded". This is grammatically incorrect, the correct form is be "laughed out loud". Abbreviated this would be "LedOL", or more often "L'dOL".

In that case, Wii Fit (spin-off of Wii). If that doesn't count, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell (spin-off of Tom Clancy).

Fun Fact) The Vocaloid song Hitobashira Arisu (Alice of Human Sacrifice) was actually based on something that actually happened (The Alice Killings of Japan or something. I dunno, I just found out about this).

Wait, that's wrong. The Alice Killings of Japan is a creepypasta.
 
Fun fact: The names of all the continents (if using just "America" for North and South) start and end in the same letter.

Er, I meant Atlantis. I have always counted it as one. As in the Lost City of Atlantis. Most experts in Atlantis think that it was actually a continent.

Assuming it was real, it no longer exists, and thefore no longer counts.

That's like counting Laurasia and Gondwanaland.
