*A new warp room similar to the One World, One Pipe room in [[Musée Champignon]] from ''Paper Mario: The Origami King'' appears, replacing the original pair of warp rooms across [[Rogueport Sewers]]. When entering this room after each chapter, the Magical Map is held up similar to when taking a Crystal Star to the Thousand-Year Door, and unlocks a pipe leading to a locale for that chapter. There are seven pipe slots instead of four, and a pipe leading from this room to Rogueport plaza can also be opened.<ref name=Duo/>

*Some English character dialogue has been altered slightly from the original game. For example, in the original, when Mario enters the town square of [[Rogueport]] for the first time, [[Goombella]] states that she is merely a "Student at the [[List of implied organizations#University of Goom|University of Goom]]", while in the remake, she specifically states that she is a junior at the school. In another example, the insult [[Bowser]] uses to address [[Kammy Koopa]] is changed from "Airhead" to "Lunkhead" during his interlude after completing Chapter 1.<ref name=Direct/>

*Some other dialogue in the script also seems to have been altered. For example, the line "To find the treasure of yore, take the seven Crystal Stars to the Thousand-Year Door" was said by Goombella in the original game, but in the remake, it is said by [[Professor Frankly]] instead. Another instance can be found in Gombella's talk with the group of Goombas encountered early in Rogueport Sewers, where the instance of cat-calling has been omitted.
