The only exception to the rule is Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (iQue 3DSXL/Nintendo Switch), where the original script was mostly preserved with minor adjustments.

*Metroid Prime's Shield port was unreleased, but its translations could be speculated through names in SSB Ultimate

The Chinese script for Super Mario Galaxy on the Switch is re-translated from the original (Japanese), and not ported from the Shield Version. It appears that Nintendo almost always have different Chinese scripts for the original and remake.

Kamek no longer tells Mario to "go to hell" in the Simplified Chinese script of the Switch version of Super Mario Galaxy 1+2.

The Switch translation is more literal to the Japanese script, where Kamek tells Mario to roll on the ground instead.
