Trivia

 * His name is derived from the professional chess player, Aron Nimzowich, who has unofficially been given the title "Grandmaster".


 * He was originally known as Mirudraas in the earliest Monsters spin-off games and he was named Mildrath in fan-translations, due to this game not being released originally.
 * "Lord of Makai" is his original Japanese title, it means lord of the Demon World.
 * Its main theme does not have an official english name so it's known by its japanese one, Satan.
 * Nimzo speaks in cyrillic alphabet but it's still understandable in the language of the same the game is set to.
