Trivia
Films
- It is unknown if he was kidnapped by El Macho and turned into an Evil Minion.
- There are different minions like him such as: Jorge, Brad, Carl, Eric, Jeff, Gaetano, Ken, Pudgy, Luke, etc.
Minion Rush
- When Jerry jumps over obstacles in Minion Rush, he sometimes jumps with wide arms and closed eyes. His move was previously designed as jumping in the same direction and sometimes opposite.
- Jerry's original coin price was 800, but the game makers changed it to 1 coin to help all players unlock it easier.
- In the previous version, Jerry was a separate character in the game and had a unique spot in the Shop. Carl, Jerry and Mel didn't have costumes like Dave did but they had hats. Now all the characters have been unified under the Wardrobe section.
- Jerry's old power (in the previous version) was additional time for all Power-Ups. He had no special powers in the jelly lab versions. The minion's description used to be If one Minion fails while running, you can switch to another one! Skilled & smart, when Jerry uses Power-Ups, they last longer than Dave's.
- Since abilities came in the game, all tasks that required picking up power-ups a number of times were changed into using their respective abilities a number of times. As a result, Jerry's utility, as well as all costumes that increase chances of certain power-up pick-ups became redundant. Instead, new costumes appear, giving shorter ability-charge.
