Trivia
The first production run of Spyro: Year of the Dragon featured holographic artwork on the case cover.
Several of the skateboarding tricks in the Tony Hawk–styled minigames are named after various Spyro antagonists (such as Gnasty Gnorc).
Cutscenes in one level, "Fireworks Factory", parody The Matrix.
The game's release date is astrologically correct; 2000 was the year of the dragon in the Chinese zodiac.

Re: Trivia
The first production run of Spyro: Year of the Dragon featured lenticular artwork on the case cover.
Several of the skateboarding tricks in the Tony Hawk–styled minigames are named after various Spyro antagonists (such as Gnasty Gnorc).
At the end of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage, Hunter did not come with Spyro back to the dragon realms, but at the beginning of the game, he appears with the dragons of the dragon realm as if he did.
Cutscenes in one level, "Fireworks Factory", parody The Matrix.
The game's release date coincides with the Dragon of the Chinese zodiac.
A level in the game, Desert Ruins of Midnight Mountain, parodies the Tomb Raider franchise. In it, Spyro is sent to rescue a girl who is "raiding the Tomb of Stone Golum". When you find her, she is a tall mouse named Tara who is dressed like Lara Croft.

Tut tut tut. Copying from our old friend Wikipedia?
Hmm...random trivia? The egg Jonah which is found in the Whale's Body in Year of the Dragon is derived from the old bible story of Jonah being eaten by a whale.

My brother should feel great! He was born in the year of the dragon! Sadly I was born in the year of the dog.
