Super Smash Bros.

Attachment In an early version of the game, Saffron City's rooftop had a pink and purple color scheme.
Tomodachi Life
1
The music that plays in the Café area are the songs that Miis can learn in the Japan-only Nintendo DS installment "Tomodachi Collection". In the Japanese version of the game, lyrics (taken directly from "Tomodachi Collection") can be heard during each song. In the international versions of the game, the instrumentals for each song were kept, but lyrics were removed.
Kirby: Squeak Squad
1
Attachment When the game was localized in Europe, its name was changed to Kirby: Mouse Attack.
Kirby Triple Deluxe
1
Attachment In the Japanese version, during the tutorial, a red circle will appear whenever an action is properly done. However in the international version, the red circle was replaced with a green check mark, possibly to not confuse the player whenever they performed a correct action. In Japan, a circle is used in the same manner as a tick is in the west. This change is also present in Kirby's Return to Dream Land.
WarioWare: Touched!
1
Attachment When the game was localized internationally, some of the minigames were changed due to Nintendo of America's regulations on Japanese culture.
Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS
1
In the North American version, the Mario Kart Shy Guy trophy states that he made his racing debut in Mario Kart 7. This technically is false, as Shy Guy could be played in Mario Kart DS, but only in Download Play for players who didn't own the game. This was fixed in the UK version by stating he was first selectable in Mario Kart 7.
Tomodachi Life
1
Before the game was released internationally, many international players thought that a patch in the Japanese version fixed a glitch that had unintentionally made gay marriages possible for Miis, causing fans to complain about this feature being removed, while in actuality, Nintendo was simply fixing a data transfer issue that corrupted save data and prevented people from progressing after they transferred Mii characters from the Japan-only Nintendo DS installment "Tomodachi Collection".

Gay marriages are able to be performed in Tomodachi Life due to the ability to create Miis that have the appearance of Miis of the opposite gender. While many have complained of the inability to have same gender relationships in Tomodachi Life, Nintendo has refrained from including the feature, explaining that the game is not to be looked at as though it is a "simulation" of real life.
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

1
In stage "Extra 3: More Monkey Madness", a 21st Red Coin can be found. The coin is hidden under a peg occupied by a gray Tap-Tap, with a rotating Paddle-Wheel above it, making it difficult to access. In the Game Boy Advance port, this coin is removed, indicating that it may have been present in the SNES version due to either a glitch or mistake.
Franchise: Ace Attorney
1
In the Japanese versions of each game, Maya Fey's favorite food is ramen. However, this was changed to burgers in the US releases.
Kirby's Dream Course
1
Attachment The Japanese version has an animated introduction that is absent from the international releases of the game, where the story was relegated to the instruction manual, this was cut along with the soundtrack to the intro, several test courses and the debug menu.

This was done to lower production costs, by cutting down the size of the ROM it could be fit onto a cheaper cartridge for the international release.
JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle
1
The English translation of the game involves a large number of name changes to many characters as well as stand names for those that have stands, all to avoid any potential lawsuits with musicians/bands. Some examples are the character "Vanilla Ice" being changed to "Cool Ice", Giorno's stand "Gold Experience" was renamed to "Golden Wind" and the character "Jean Pierre Polnareff" was changed to "Jean Pierre Eiffel."

The original Japanese voice acting will still say the original names, despite the subtitle changes.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
1
Francesca's name in the Italian translation of the game, Romoletta, paired with Frankie's translated name, Giuliano, makes a reference to Romeo and Juliet, whose love is impossible due to their families rivalry. The name Francesca can also be considered the female counterpart of Frankie, underlining their link.
Journey to Silius

Jay McCray (the game's protagnoist) has a different sprite in the North American version than that of the European and Japanese versions.

Donkey Kong Country
1
Attachment In the international release of the game, the title screen shows Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong swinging on a rope. In the Japanese version, it says Super Donkey Kong (the Japanese name for Donkey Kong Country) and shows Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong walking with Rambi, Squawks and Expresso with a Slippa and some Zingers following them.

Attachment Along with some minor changes, Rosalina dosen't appear on the Japanese release's box art.

1
Attachment The game was originally called G Sonic in Japan.
Sonic the Hedgehog: Triple Trouble
1
Attachment The title screen in the North American and Japanese versions are almost completely different, likely due to the game's name originally being Sonic & Tails 2 in Japan. The Japanese version also has an option for "3D Stage" that was removed from other versions.

Kirby's Avalanche is the only Kirby game not to get released in Japan.
