As Chapters 3 & 4 were originally released as a launch title for the Nintendo Switch 2, that platform's version of the Mike Zone is based around using both Joy-Con 2s as mice simultaneously. In other versions of the game, this entire sequence is substantially altered. The PC version pairs a single mouse with the computer's microphone, which detects how loudly the player speaks into it. If a microphone isn't connected, the game instead has the player hold down a key to mimic raising one's voice. Console versions also mimic this by using the shoulder button to control the microphone's volume. The Mike fight's mechanics are changed to account for these controls, and the minigames Air Waves and Main Performance are replaced with Battat and Jongler. The sole minigame present in all versions, Pluey, is also reconfigured and given to Cat Mike outside the Switch 2 version rather than Small Mike. As a side-effect of these changes, Green Pippins' dialogue at the end of the Trashy Trio fight in Chapter 5 is also different between platforms. In the Switch 2 release, he scolds the characters for "misusing the AIR WAVES motif," tying in with how both of the songs "Inappropriate Recycling" and "AIRWAVES" feature a recurring leitmotif introduced in "The World Revolving" (colloquially referred to as the "Freedom Motif"). On other platforms, Green Pippins instead refers to it as the "BATTAT motif", as the song "AIRWAVES" is transferred to that minigame in those releases.
