Viewtiful Joe
1
Attachment Blade Master Alastor is really the personification of the Alastor sword from Devil May Cry. Many of his moves are taken from the game, and the sword and lightning he uses look very similar. When fighting Dante in the PS2 version, Alastor will berate Dante about mistreating and forgetting him.
Company: Nintendo
1
Attachment Nintendo started out as a card company under the name Nintendo Koppai. They made Hanafuda cards when they started becoming popular. This lasted from 1889-1928. Nintendo continues to manufacture cards with Nintendo themes on the Nintendo web site in Japan.
Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman!
1
Attachment In Japan, the game was released as "Bomberman GB" and didn't feature Wario in any capacity.

Its sequel, "Bomberman GB 2", was released in the west unaltered, however it was renamed simply "Bomberman GB".
Super Mario Galaxy
1
Attachment The Japanese Super Mario Galaxy announces "Star get!" when the player acquires a Star, and "Grand Star get!" when they get a Grand Star. In the U.S. version, the grammar was cleaned up to read "You got a Star!" and "You got a Grand Star!" A similar change occurred in Super Mario Sunshine, where "Shine get!" was changed to "Shine!"
Super Mario Sunshine
1
Attachment One of the more well-known things about Super Mario Sunshine before its U.S. release was the "Shine Get!" phrase shown everytime Mario obtained a Shine. Not surprisingly, this fine example of video game Engrish was changed to simply "Shine!" for the English version.
D
1
Because the storyline and graphic FMVs were more horrifying than any video game that had yet been released, head developer Kenji Eno resorted to a trick in order to get D published.

The game was originally developed with no storyline, and Eno kept the story sequences a secret even from the other members of WARP. When the game was finished, he submitted a 'clean' version (i.e. without the violent and disturbing story content of the complete version) for approval.

He deliberately submitted the master disc late, knowing that part of the penalty was that he would have to deliver it by hand to the manufacturers in the USA. While on the plane, he switched the phony 'clean' discs with the finalized discs, thus completely bypassing all censorship.
Catherine
1
Attachment When Catherine was released in America, the game came in two different sets of cover art. One set containing the Japanese cover and the other showing just the female characters' (Catherine and Katherine) faces. This was Atlus's answer to some stores wanting to "feature a cover that is more considerate of certain retailers' broader customer demographic."
Persona 3 Portable
1
In the PlayStation Portable version, while playing as the female protagonist, during the ultimate boss fight with Theodore (the male equivalent of Elizabeth), Fuuka will describe him as female.
Franchise: Ace Attorney
2
The first 3 games in this series were released on the GBA, only in Japan. When the first game was ported to the Nintendo DS, a new case was added. This case caused a continuity error in the second game, when the original last case of the first game was said to be Edgeworth's last case. This was corrected in Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy, which updated some of the lines of dialogue to fit the new case into the series timeline. Specifically:

• "(But after "that" case was over...)" became "(But a little after "that" case was over...)"
• "After that case, Edgeworth was in a peculiar state, and he got worse everyday." became "Edgeworth was never quite the same after that case, and then, with the case after that one..."
• "That was one year ago. It was right after you left to go back home." became "That was one year ago. It was a few months after you left to go back home."
Boktai 2: Solar Boy Django
1
There is a mission in which you must purify a coffin that contains "Shademan." During the fight, Django will work with Mega Man to defeat Shademan.

Shademan's final words are:
"Once more... I...! ...Don't think... ...that I will disappear... ... in THIS world...! And again... back... ...to the... ...the Cyberworld...!

Unfortunately, due to poor sales, the side mission in Mega Man Battle Network 6 that goes along with this side story was removed completely, but was available in the Japanese version "Rockman.EXE 6."
Super Mario World
1
The two ammunition-based enemies in Super Mario World are Bullet Bills and Torpedo Teds. This would make their referred-to names 'Bill and Ted', a possible reference to the film "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure". Their Japanese names translate as "Killer" and "Torpedo" respectively, meaning this reference would have been made by the Nintendo of America localization team.
Bomberman
1
Shinichi Nakamoto completed the NES port of the game in a single 72-hour session.
Command & Conquer: Red Alert
1
The Counterstrike expansion pack added secret missions to the game that were called "It Came From Red Alert". The missions feature giant ants as the enemy. You can unlock this game mode in the PC version by holding shift and clicking the speaker in the upper right corner of the title screen. The game mode is also present in the collected version Red Alert: Retaliation but in the console ports you had to unlock the missions by beating the game.
Portal 2
1
Attachment An unused soundfile for the Announcer exists in Portal 2.
He says: "We will attempt to comply with these now non-existent agencies by playing some more smooth jazz."
No smooth jazz will play after that.

However, in the German version, the music can be heard.
Fur Fighters: Viggo's Revenge
1
Shooting all of the rabbits in Fur Fighter Village will unlock a cheat. The cheat, titled 'Blood', will not work even when activated unless it is used on a PAL copy of the game. According to a former Bizarre Creations employee, it was removed from US versions of the game due to censorship issues.
Ōkami
1
Attachment There's an IGN watermark on the covers of both the Wii version and the official strategy guide.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars
1
Attachment Bowser's victory pose was changed when it was brought to the U.S. as it previously resembled the "Up yours!" gesture.
Cave Story
1
Right after the fight with Curly Brace, you can go into her room. In there, you can find a secret tunnel. At the end, you will find an item called "Curly's Underwear." This item is a joke item, as it has no use and cannot be removed from your inventory.

In the Plus versions of the game, finding this hidden item unlocks "Curly Story".
Pokémon FireRed Version

1
Attachment In Japanese versions of the game, the player's bedroom has a Famicom. In the US game, this has been changed to a front-loader NES.
