Trivia

 * Snake Man is credited to liking Toad Man and disliking slugs; this most likely comes from a Japaneses variation of Rock Paper Scissors; where Snake beats Toad (the snake can swallow the toad), Toad beats Slug (the toad can swallow the slug), and Slug beats Snake (the slug, by covering its prey with a slimy secretion, can destroy a snake). This would also explain why Toad Man is credited as disliking Snake Man also. Also, some snakes eat toads in real life.


 * Hyleg Ourobockle and Burble Hekelot from Mega Man Zero 2 have a similar relation to Snake Man and Toad Man.


 * Snake Man makes a cameo appearance in Mega Man 7. He, along with many other Robot Masters from the previous games, can be seen in the background of the Robot Museum.


 * Part of Mega Man 7's Robot Museum background music is a remix of Snake Man's theme from Mega Man 3.


 * Shark Man's mugshot from the PC version of Mega Man 3 is an edited version of Snake Man's mugshot.
