Futurama - Cave Story connection

In a Episode of Futurama, Fry and Leela are trying to shut down the ships brain.

The ships brain has shut off the oxygen, leaving Fry and Leela to use oxygen tanks. Leela is to busy shutting the brain down she doesn't notice her oxygen is becoming low.

Fry sacrifices his life and gives Leela his Oxygen.

Sound Familiar?

If not, you might wanna remember what happens after the core battle.

Ps: I'm not saying it's any connection, just pointing it out.

 

I think that was made before CaveStory? Not sure.

I'm not sure too. I wasn't even saying there was a connection. Just pointing it out.

 

Oh, I know. I was just saying. If it was made before CaveStory I have to seriously doubt he watched Futurama.

"Cliches become cliches because they work."

Don't think these are the only two examples of someone sacrificing their air tank to save someone else

 

Also, do you realize how long the series is? It would be more surprising if there were no connections like this...

 

It is the year 3000, of course they are referencing Cave Story.
