The Famicom version was on the Disk System and allowed players to save their progress. This feature was removed in the international version, and the music that accompanied the screen was removed along with it. The short, simple tune has been used in future instalments for the same purpose.

Franchise: Digimon

▲

▼

Digimon Digital Card Battle had different card backs between the american and japanese versions of Digimon Digital Card Battle, which also applied to the physical card game at the time.

The card backs were unchanged in the english dub of Digimon Tamers, which is also true for Digimon World 3 (in spite of the card game in Digimon World 3 not actually being the same one).

Oddly the english version of Digimon Rumble Arena, which was mostly based on Digimon Tamers, had the american card game backs in the american version instead.

Franchise: Digimon

There are a few differences in the western localization of the entire Digimon franchise, aside from some of the names being different, the words "Digivolve" and "Digivolution" replace the words "shinka" and the translated version of "shinka", "evolution" both verbally and visually.

Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory (2013)

▲

▼

The Japanese version has an additional DLC party member named Compile. She is named after Compile Heart's precursor company, famous in Japan for creating the Puyo Puyo series.
Most likely due to licencing issues (since parts of Compile were sold to SEGA), she was never made available in the North American and European versions of Victory.

Cubic Ninja (2011)

▲

▼

In 2014, an exploit in the game's save files was discovered, which enabled homebrew games and applications to be put into the 3DS. This caused prices and demand for the game to suddenly spike.

After the announcement of the exploit, Nintendo removed the game from sale on the Japanese eShop. In Japan, the game was only available as a download title.

This exploit was later made unusable through a 3DS firmware update.

In the final chapter of Rosalina's storybook, in the French version on one of the pages, the line is different than compared to the version shown in the game in other regions. When translated, the line reads:

"I would like, once every hundred years, to return back to my blue planet, and doze on the knees of my father, stroking the mustache that was his pride."
