There are two versions of the boss "Junior". In the arcade machine is a switch that will change the boss of the Freak Show from a big baby to a gigantic teddy bear named Deaddy. It's likely that the switch was added to avoid complaints from parents regarding the shooting of an infant child.

Mister Torgue is censored by a device in his voicebox, rather than being edited later. In his own words:
A LOT OF PEOPLE BEEN ASKING ME WHY MY VOICE BEEPS ALL THE F*CKIN TIME. THE TORGUE SHAREHOLDERS WIRED MY VOICEBOX WITH A DIGITAL CENSOR SO I CAN'T SAY STUFF LIKE SH*T, C*CK, OR P*SSY F*CKIN' D*CKBALLS! THAT'S LIKE HALF MY F*CKIN' VOCABULARY, IT'S GODDAMN BULLSH*T!

Primal Rage

The Primal Rage design team implemented an unusual and largely unknown security method into the arcade machine's coding that prevented the full features of the game from becoming active when emulated. Since the original programming team has since moved on to other things, they could not be reached for questioning regarding the game's security lock-outs. Those who have been contacted expressed no interest in unlocking the ROM BIOS for freeware distribution or security corrections. For these reasons, no perfect emulation of the original arcade game exists.

In the absence of these security protections, blood would be "censored" in that it would be colored a yellowish color with a brown shading. Also, fatalities could not be performed, and many special moves were not available. Another emulation problem was the player could no longer chain attacks, which greatly decreased the chance of performing a combo. These issues even affect the Midway Arcade Treasures 2 collection, which would supposedly feature an arcade perfect rendition of the game, but instead provides a censored and incomplete version.

In the Japanese release, a number of scenes had been edited, despite the game being given a "Z" rating (the highest available). Changes include Trevor Phillips' pants staying on when they're supposed to be down, the teen idol sex scene changed to her just smoking, and the torture gameplay in the mission "By the Book" skipped entirely.

In the Katy Perry song "I Kissed a Girl", the word 'cherry' is censored for some reason. It's possible that this is due to the possibility of the word cherry being used as an innuendo for "popping someone's cherry" (being the one to make them lose their virginity).

Some names can't be used in the "Rename player" function; the game simply responds with "Not cool enough" if you try to enter one. Most are swears, slang terms (some rather dirty), or occult-related items Nintendo would rather not be associated with; some of these words are only considered "dirty" in Europe.
