Super Mario Maker
3
When asked about why Super Mario Maker would be releasing on September 11th, the date that four coordinated terrorist attacks were carried out against the United States in 2001, Nintendo representative Julie Gagnon responded:

"Nintendo is really respectful of this date, but the thing is that when we launched Super Mario Bros back in 1985, it was September 13th. And, as we have worked with retailers on Friday as a launch day, the date worked out as Friday, September 11th for this year."

Due to this awkward release timing, promotional materials for the game would word the release date as the "11th of September", even in countries that use an MM/DD format.
