A "Portuguese Luigi Disrespect" version of New Super Luigi U was uploaded to Nintendo's servers but replaced before it could be distributed to users. It is completely identical to the final version except that one Toad calls Luigi "Mario" in Portuguese.

On June 20th, 2013, New Super Luigi U was released in Europe as a downloadable update for New Super Mario Bros. U. However, internal files reveal that two weeks prior to this, another version of the game was uploaded to Nintendo's servers, but never pushed to users as an update.
The only difference between the early internal version of NSLU and the final one was that in the early version, one Toad mistakes Luigi for Mario in Portuguese.
Internal "Portuguese Luigi Disrespect" version, June 6, 2013:
Ai, isto é terrível! Alguém roubou as minhas coisas! E ele é tão rápido que não o consigo apanhar! Ajuda-me, Mario!
Final European version, June 20, 2013:
Ai, isto é terrível! Alguém roubou as minhas coisas! E ele é tão rápido que não o consigo apanhar! Ajuda-me, Luigi!
clearly not Mario
Translation:
"Oh, this is terrible! Someone stole my things! And he's so fast that I can't catch him! Help me, Mario!"
Translation:
"Oh, this is terrible! Someone stole my things! And he's so fast that I can't catch him! Help me, Luigi!"
The reasoning for this is almost certainly that the early version was a work in progress while Nintendo made one final check to see if everything was in order, and managed to catch one single mistake. However, it is curious how a version of the game exists that is nearly identical to the final except for not respecting Luigi.

PERSON 2: When dense crust subducts, geologists think it might pile up at the bottom of the mantle. [illustration of Person 2’s related theory] (3) PERSON 2: We’re going to hide in the crust and ride it down to see. Wanna come? It’s gonna be spooky! (4) PERSON 1: Won’t that take millions of years? PERSON 2: Lots of time for ghost stories! PERSON 1: I think I’m good. PERSON 2: Too spooky? I understand.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door inadvertently depicts Peach as the quickest typist in the world. She is able to type up a 126-word email in exactly 3 seconds, making her 8 times faster than the current typing speed world record.
