Some of the game world icons were initially the same as in the previous two games, but they were revised as time went on (Mario's Mushroom icon was refined and given spots, the Poké Ball icon has the top half colored in to properly represent how it is usually red, etc.). Also, the description for the My Music options originally said, "Adjust how often a song will appear on this stage." It has since been revised in a general tone to say, "Adjust how often songs appear on stages." [[Solid Snake]] was also meant to be more muscular, and was to have a gray suit rather than blue. The original Snake was less modernized and his down smash was going to be a more realistic bomb. [[Wario Bike]], [[Drill Rush]], [[Trophy Base]], [[Summit]], [[Halberd]], Rainbow Cruise, and "The Flowers That Bloom in the Echoes" were originally called Wario Chopper, Triple Dash, Trophy Stand, The Summit, Battle Ship Halberd, [[Rainbow Ride]], and, "Flowers Bloom on the notes" respectively. It's unknown why they changed these names, however, they likely changed Rainbow Ride because it was a ''Melee'' stage, in which it was misnamed Rainbow Cruise (although it remains Rainbow Ride in the PAL regions, mostly because it was called Rainbow Ride on the PAL version of Melee). Lastly, there were scenes taking place before the events of [[the Subspace Emissary]] where the Subspace Army takes over the Halberd and King Dedede unintentionally stalls Meta Knight from preventing it from happening. [[Masahiro Sakurai]] confirmed that he decided to cut this out and an update was made to confirm this together with how various events and characters in the Subspace Emissary comes together. One mistake the developers made was in the trailer, on the Halberd stage. As you watch the characters fight, Kirby uses his side special (Hammer Cartwheel) move from SSBM, while in SSBB, he uses his Hammer Spin. His move may have been tweaked after the trailer was released. Fox McCloud had a different animation, which was him holding a gun, instead of his drinking-tea-like movement in the final release. Captain Falcon also suffered changes, in the beta version his outfit was darker, and an eye could be seen through his glasses. Another character whose appearance was changed was Meta Knight, in the beta version his mask had a different design.

In the beta version, a damage system would have been implimented that would cause characters to shown signs of visible damage and strain during prolonged battles. Among those found included Meta Knight's mask that would develop large cracks, or Captain Falcon's helmet whose visor would crack to reveal a part of his face.<ref>http://www.unseen64.net/2008/04/04/super-smash-bros-brawl-wii-beta/</ref>
