Originally, the translated script of the DS version of IV was simply going to copy and paste the English script of the Game Boy Advance version with some alterations. Translator Tom Slattery, however, was a huge fan of the original game and offered to translate the entire game from scratch, making it more accurate to the original Japanese text while also using some modern series terms (such as "Eidolons" for the summon monsters.)

Attachment According to Masahiro Sakurai, in the November 2014 issue of GameInformer, the reason why Super Smash Bros. was released on two different consoles was because he was a “freelance game designer,” and that having a unique version of the game makes it fun.

"The first reason is that I think both portables and home consoles have their own traits that make them fun. I've gone into that in previous interviews, so I'll omit the details here.

One big reason for this approach is because I'm a freelance game designer ... I'm always going to be the center of any Smash Bros. project, but since I don't have my own personal studio, the staff changes in and out with each project. Changing development studios like this also means that you can't build out from the know-how and in-house assets you've accumulated over time.

As a development environment, it's different from a publisher that can work on fighting games, shooters, and open-world titles all at once. For us, even if things look the same, it's all completely different, completely built from scratch. If we started with a console project then moved on to the portable platform, once one team finished up their work, we'd have to wait and hand everything over to another team."

There were two cut random character missions in The Ballad of Gay Tony. They both involved Luis running into ex-girlfriends. One mission has Luis taking the ex-girlfriend home and defending himself from her brothers, while the other involved the ex planting a bomb in Luis' car. It is unclear if these missions involved the same girlfriend, or two different ones.

When Hanamura was first implemented, Point B had a circular design, and the victory pose location on the map was the map origin as the victory pose placement tool hadn't been used yet. Since the origin was partially submerged, the development team referred to the victory pose screen as "The Hottub" as characters looked like they were in a bath.

Dhalsim's V-Skill originally consisted of him forcibly switching positions with the opponent, making it effective against projectile characters.

This move wasn't as good as the developers originally envisioned, and it proved frustrating for players, so this move wasn't included in the released game.

When asked about guest characters, similar to Banjo & Kazooie in the original game, Steve Lycett stated that they would prefer to go with characters who aren't tied to a specific company for the sake of including them on all platforms. He goes on to list Bub and Bob from Bubble Bobble, Arthur from Ghosts’n Goblins, Mega Man, and Pac-Man as characters they would love to use under this criteria.

Despite this 'available on all platforms' preference, Lycett added, "Though if I personally had my pick, it’d be Kirby! Everyone knows he is nails!"

In Queen Vanessa's Manor, there is an entire third floor that went unused in the final build of the game, along with what appears to be a shadow version of Hat Girl. The reason why the floor was cut was simply because the developers didn't like how it turned out. It is still in the game, but it cannot be accessed through normal play.
