For those confused on what these other names for other things are, I have decoded what they all mean. The reason is to compare it to the real-life people, places and things we all know…to save you headaches. Those with question marks I have not decoded yet, but I'm sure Jessica and Adam will help me on this.

Whoa, that's an impressive list, and you got almost all of them right. Great job, dragon dude! I'm not going to spoil all the fun by telling you what the question marks are, but I'll at least tell you which ones you got wrong.
Oh, and one thing to note is that some of our parody titles take inspiration from more than one real-world source.
Dude Shinobi = American Ninja
Dude Shinobi is mostly inspired by the American Ninja franchise, as you've guessed, but he's also inspired by a couple other action stars. Two in particular.
Double Dudes = Double Dragon
Partially correct. Double Dudes vs. Satan Ninja is a combination of Double Dragon and another arcade game.
The Eternal Departed = The Grateful Dead
This one's wrong. But I can't blame you, as the real-world band that inspired The Eternal Departed is extremely obscure and is one of the only (in fact I think it's the only) parody name that isn't inspired by something from the '80s ...
Horrific Holiday = Halloween
Partially correct. It's inspired by the general trend for horror films to always be themed after a particular holiday or special date (Halloween, Silent Night Deadly Night, Friday the 13th, April Fool's Day, New Years Evil, My Bloody Valentine, Happy Birthday to Me, etc.)
The rest you got spot on.

Has to be the EverDead, a horror-themed rock band from Grand Rapids, MI. formed in the spring of 2000.. 8)

Also Beef Lord sounds like a porn alias..

Oooo, I heard their singer was a mega hunk!

Yeah, there might've been more to Eddie's old job than flipping burgers... ugh.

The online description didn't mention that, only that he did the vocals. I'll have to take your word for it..

Haha, that's terrible. Such a total mood killer if some hot babe was stripping for me, peeling down her panties all sexy-like and she says, "What do you think of my burger?"

So the legends say... In fact, I heard he beat every level of Star Road in Super Mario World! And that he once punched a bee right out of the air like it was no big deal.

I think it's more like a "why don't you come with me and I'll treat you to a burger" kind of thing..
Let's leave this here shall we..?

Oh wow, it appears that someone is trying to kick me out of the job of decoding references! But anyways, as we discussed in the D & D mansion pages, The Doomed are The Damned and Brothers of Cruelty are Sisters of Mercy. And that other arcade game was Bad Dudes, as discussed in the arcade commentary. So is The Eternal Dead inspired by a goth band?
Also don't forget Debbany, obviously a cross between Debbie Gibson and Tiffany.

No worries, Aussie Dude, because there just so happens to be a vacancy in the SN8X TV Tropes (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Webcomic/SatanNinja198X) department that needs filling. Perhaps someday I'll be able to check the TV Tropes page without a solitary manly tear spilling down my cheek at the lack of content.

All correct. That doesn't leave many question marks left on the list, although the list is incomplete.

The Eternal Departed* was sussed out by Science Dude earlier in the thread.

Correct. Hopefully her music leans more toward Debbie Gibson than Tiffany...

I finish my University course at the end of the year, I'll see if I can get to it afterwards.

Whoops, skimmed over it. Will we see a cameo of The Eternal Departed, perhaps?

Well, Psycho Sam plays guitar in The Eternal Departed, and he mentioned that they're supposed to play the upcoming prom, so I'd say it's not unlikely.
