Brawl were released in the NTSC regions of Japan and North America prior to PAL regions; in this "gap" between releases, both games were modified slightly in order to both adjust them for regional reasons, such as changing languages or information relating to release dates, or gameplay fixes, such as fixing glitches or changing properties of specific attacks.
