How come some level names change from country to country?

[cheat-master30]

Because in the US, there are secret levels in Yoshi's Island (original) called 'Fight Toadies with Toadies' and 'Endless World of Yoshis' respectively, yet in the UK copies I played, those levels are called 'Fight baddies with baddies' and 'Crazy Maze Days'. Anyone got any reason this is?

The stages has different names.

I know, but why do Nintendo change them?

[Dr.Aaron]

So the US can understand them with their stupid small language changes... >_>

[cheat-master30]

Huh? Either way, possible. I also think it could be a localisation issue related to other European Countries (basically, could be a change at either possible end).

[Dr.Aaron]

Every game company changes the name to a gay one for the US of A.

Example: Speed freaks is called Speed freaks in the UK, but in the US it's called Speed punks and we take the mick out of the US name by saying 'Speed spunks' haha.

True, it does seem that some of the names used in some countries are a little strange/unimaginative.

Pacman was called Punkman in Japan.

[cheat-master30]

I have no idea whether that is true or not, but I will say it is weird if it was/is true...

Actually it was Puckman.... now you see why they changed it.

Okay... Thanks for the information.
