A few little things i think could be added

Something that isn't here but should probably be is looking at the box or the manual for the game for a clue at who what was used. Most of the time it is unuseful but sometimes it works. ADX and Bink video are good examples.

In fact sometimes 'Making of' videos accidentally forget to hide the program they are using. If i remember correctly in an unlockable video on one of the Medal of honor games they blanked out the name of the program but slipped up and forgot to do the same to the filetype (ultimately giving away what they used).

There are a few other little things that sometimes help but i can't think of any more at the moment. SamuelEarl666 07:16, 24 July 2013 (EDT)

Yes, but... it really doesn't matter if we know that game X was developed using program Y. But your suggestion did give me a small idea. {EspyoT} 08:03, 24 July 2013 (EDT)

Yeah, sometimes things that were cut sometimes appear on the back of the box, for instance, the cut magic meter from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is still on the back of the box on the Wii version (also possibly on the back of the GC version, but I'm too lazy to check) --MrPugLover77 (talk) 11:50 AM, 7 January 2022 (EST)
