In the Super Famicom (Japanese) version of the game, there is a small, dark dot on the forehead of Belger's character portrait, most likely as a result of shading. In the international release, Nintendo removed this dot for fear it would be mistaken for a bindi and thus make players think that they were beating up a disabled Hindu. On other platforms, the character portraits are too small to display such a minute detail clearly.

In the Japanese game's intro, Jessica appears in a bra on the T.V. screen for a few seconds before Damnd does. However, in the US and international versions, Jessica is never shown. Damnd's face is always in the monitor, but you can hear Jessica screaming in the background. In the Sega CD version, however, Jessica can be seen in the intro wearing a red dress.

In order to avoid the associated controversies, the wheelchair was digitally redesigned into an executive office chair for the game's western SNES release. The international SNES version also adds new frames of animation for Belger walking, just to make it clear that he isn't disabled. In the Japanese version, he has no walking animation and merely hops around the room.

The first boss was named Damnd in the Japanese version, which is similar to "damned", a mild swear word in America. This resulted in Damnd's name being changed to Thrasher in the west.

"Also, we had a woman co-worker who we asked to list as many names as she could think of for our characters. She was really into rock music, so that's why lots of them turned out to be named after band members!" - Akira Nishitani, Final Fight Game Designer (Retro Gamer Magazine Issue 37)

At the end of most versions of the game, Guy suddenly attacks Cody.
It was originally believed that Guy beat Cody up because he was jealous that Cody got the girl (Jessica) but in actual fact, Jessica had just called out Cody's name, Cody ignored her and Guy was annoyed at Cody's behavior (The whole point of their quest was to rescue her), so he knocks Cody down to give Jessica a chance to catch up. Furthermore, Guy already has a lover (Rena) and in the game's intro he doesn't seem to know who Jessica is.
