The Japanese title screen has an orange background, the North American title screen has a pink background, the European title screen has a yellow background and the Korean title screen has a rainbow background. In addition, the music played on the title screen is different in the Japanese version of the game. In the Japanese edition, the music has the same theme as the Temple of Form. In other editions of the game, the title music is a cover version of the title theme from WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!.

==Driver's Ed==
{{Todo|images}}
In the Japanese version, the car that you drive in has the steering wheel on the right side. In the international versions, the steering wheel is on the left side.

==Three's a Crowd==

}}

The international and Korean versions of this microgame are a bit different due to cultural differences. The Korean version has Wario in his normal outfit, the background has been changed to the jungle, and the microgame objective is to whack a monkey before he takes all the bananas.

==Star Fox==
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:Wwsm RobJP.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:Wwsm RobUS.png|320px]]
}}
In the ''[[Star Fox]]'' microgame, R.O.B. uses a Famicom Beam Gun in the Japanese version and the second Zapper for the international ones. R.O.B.'s color scheme is appropriate for each region, matching the Famicom and NES colors respectively.

==Super Nostalgic Entertainment System==
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:Wwsm famicom.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:Wwsm snes.png|320px]]
}}
In Japan, "Super Nostalgic Entertainment System" is called "Family Computer" and uses, as you may have guessed, a Famicom. The Famicom cartridges are ''[[Urban Champion (NES)| Urban Champion]]'', ''Clu Clu Land'', ''Tennis'', ''Devil World'', ''Duck Hunt'', and ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'', while the SNES cartridges are ''[[Wario's Woods (SNES)|Wario's Woods]]'', ''[[Super Punch-Out!! (SNES)|Super Punch-Out!!]]'', ''[[Pilotwings]]'', ''[[Mario Paint]]'', ''[[Super Mario World (SNES)|Super Mario World]]'' (using the original horizontal logo), and ''[[Super Metroid]]''. This change was made because, aside from a few obscure later revisions, the international NES was side-loading as opposed to the top-loading Famicom and Super NES.

Very strangely, the European version also uses the American SNES.

==9 Volt's Intro==
{{compare
|leftt = JPN
|rightt= International
|left  = <youtube width="269" height="187">_lWVyoUHbSg</youtube> 
|right = <youtube width="269" height="187">hqOnr6sCR1M</youtube>
}}
9-Volt and 18-Volt's intro was slightly changed during the English localization: instead of "Love" and "Game", it says "Game" and "Boys". The Famicom was also changed to an NES.

==Forms==
{{todo|missing some images, as well as Form Baton explanations in the Japanese version that need translating.}}
{{needsproofread|lang=de|Direct translation can only go so far for some of these, needs insight into German, Spanish, French, and Italian culture.  Also, might need some fact checking in regards to Japanese culture references.}}

Of the 19 different forms in the game, most were given different names and illustrations outside of Japan because of how they rely on references to specific elements of Japanese culture. In most cases, the international illustrations are completely different from the Japanese ones.

===The Boxer===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMboxerJ.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMboxerU.png|320px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Boxer form uses the image of an ''okappiki'' (岡っ引き), a type of detective from the Edo era of Japan.

===The Chauffeur===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMchauffeurJ.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMchauffeurU.png|320px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Chauffeur form is based on a traditional Japanese dance called ''Mawaryanse'' (まわりゃんせ), which involves holding hands. The international versions instead use the image of a chauffeur (actually a Wiimote) driving a car.

===The Diner===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMdinerJ.png|440px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMdinerU.png|240px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Diner form is based on the concept of dual-wielding weapons. The international versions use a decidedly less-violent image of a man dual-wielding silverware.

===The Discard===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMdiscardJ.png|240px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMdiscardU.png|240px]]
}}

All versions of The Discard form feature a family playing a card game, but the international versions add traditional playing card suit symbols to the cards in place of vague lines. The international version also has the leftmost 18 pixels chopped off.

===The Elephant===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMelephantJ.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMelephantU.png|320px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Elephant form is based on the Tengu, a creature for Japanese folklore with large noses. The international versions instead use an elephant, a real creature with an even bigger nose.

===The Finger Food===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMfingerfoodJ.png|240px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMfingerfoodU.png|240px]]
}}

All versions of The Finger Food form depict food traditionally eaten with fingers, but the food shown in the Japanese version is not as widely recognizable as the french fries used in the international versions.

===The Handlebar===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMhandlebarJ.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMhandlebarU.png|320px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Handlebar form is based on food from Japanese cuisine that is typically eaten using two hands. The international versions use the image of holding the handlebars of a bicycle instead.

===The Janitor===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMjanitorJ.png|240px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMjanitorU.png|320px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Janitor form is based on traditional depictions of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Sh%C5%8Dtoku Prince Shoutoku], a popular figure from Japanese history. The international versions instead use the image of an elderly custodian sweeping in space.

===The Remote Control===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMremoteJ.png|240px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMremoteU.png|240px]]
}}

All versions of The Remote Control form feature a man in a suit holding an object in his hand, with the Japanese version featuring a piece of paper and the international versions featuring a remote control. The Japanese name, ''shoumen'' (正面, meaning "front"), refers to the nature of the pose rather than any particular action in the illustration.

===The Sketch Artist===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMsketchartistJ.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMsketchartistU.png|320px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Sketch Artist form depicts calligraphy, the art of decorative writing, which is part of Japanese culture. The international versions instead use the image of an artist drawing, a more recognizable analogy to the motions used in the form for Western audiences.

===The Umbrella===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMumbrellaJ.png|320px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMumbrellaU.png|320px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Umbrella form uses upright position of the Wii remote as a metaphor for the Japanese legend of a carp climbing a waterfall. The international versions just use an umbrella instead.

===The Waiter===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left  = [[File:WWSMwaiterJ.png|240px]]
| rightt= International
| right = [[File:WWSMwaiterU.png|128px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Waiter form is called ''tenori'' (手乗り), which refers to how the Wii remote sits in the player's hand. The Japanese image depicts a person riding a raft at sea as an analogy, while the international versions use the image of a waiter carrying a tray.

===The Mortar and Pestle===
{{compare
| leftt = Japan
| left = [[File:WarioWare-Smooth-Moves-Kobozu.jpg|330px]]
| rightt = International
| right = [[File:WarioWare-Smooth-Moves-Mortar-and-Pestle.png|314px]]
}}

The Japanese version of The Mortar and Pestle is called ''Young Priest'' (小坊主), presumably referring to Miso-grinding priests, a tradition in Japan that presumably looks obscure to the international market, hence the change.

==Names==
Even among the international releases, some of the form names vary depending on the language.
