## Trivia

* So far, there are only two times Big Buck World has been released at home. The first time was with the release of Super Happy Fun Fun's Sure Shot HD Big Buck Bundle, which featured both Big Buck Hunter Pro and Big Buck Safari, however, Big Buck Hunter Pro: Open Season and Big Buck Safari: Outback could be downloaded as expansions to those games, despite them missing some things from the arcade versions. The second time was with the release of the Arcade1Up Big Buck Hunter Pro/World cabinet, which contained the entirety of Big Buck World. It was advertised as having four games, when in reality, it's just the same two games from Big Buck World with everything you could hope for. A deluxe edition of Arcade1Up's cabinet is set to release in 2023.
* Big Buck World was the only way you could play Big Buck Safari: Outback, unlike with Big Buck Hunter Pro: Open Season, since it was never released as its own cabinet.
* With the addition of Ibex, one new trophy and four new critters were added that could only be found in this adventure. The trophy is the Okapi, and the four critters are Bush Babies, Hornbills, Genets, and Honey Badgers.
* There are hidden bonuses that can be found throughout both games, each hidden bonus is from one of the bonus games found in each game. In Big Buck Hunter Pro: Open Season, you can find hidden frogs and chickens for extra points, but you can only find these bonuses in the Elk, Mule Deer, Bison, and Mountain Goat adventures. However, in Big Buck Safari: Outback, there are hidden Shrunken Heads and Turtles that can be found in every adventure. In the five adventures from Big Buck Safari (Sable, Kudu, Wildebeest, Gemsbok, Cape Buffalo), these hidden bonuses can be found once every trek, however, in the new Outback adventures (Ibex, Rusa Deer, Blackbuck), these bonuses are found in one of their respective treks.
* There is a glitch in the Rusa Deer adventure regarding the Banteng and Water Buffalo, as their icons for when you get them on the site select screen are switched. When you kill a Banteng, a Water Buffalo icon will show up, and when you kill a Water Buffalo, a Banteng icon will show up. This problem was fixed in the Sure Shot HD edition of the game, but remains as is in the Arcade1Up version.
* You can tell that when the new Bonus Games for Big Buck Safari: Outback were being made, some of the Bonuses were possibly intended for other adventures before ending up where they are now. In the Batcave Bonus, the Bats in the bonus are Flying Foxes, which are found in the Rusa Deer adventure, and not any of the African adventures. In the Croc Blocker Bonus, there are Bush Babies and Crocodiles despite neither of them appearing in the Rusa Deer adventure, although a crocodile appears in the Australia segment of Big Buck World's opening video. In the Jumbo Drop Kick Bonus, the elephants in the game are the African variants and not the Asian variants.
* In Big Buck World's logo, a Bush Baby is prominently seen on the logo, as well, a Rusa Deer and a Bengal Tiger are also featured prominently on the marquee and the side art of the standard cabinet. In the panorama model of the cabinet, a Mule Deer, Ibex, Banteng, and Emu are featured on the side art as well.
