This change is likely because "YAHOO!" is trademarked by the company {{wp|Yahoo!}}. Her catchphrase was reinstated in the [[Nintendo Switch]] remake. The name went unchanged in the Japanese Virtual Console re-release because the language uses a different word for her catchphrase and the web company.<ref>[https://legendsoflocalization.com/3-times-that-game-translations-were-quietly-changed/ 3 Times That Game Translations Were Quietly Changed - Legends of Localization]</ref> | ||
