- The attack bonus for the Mush Badge was reduced significantly in the Japanese version of the game:

---|---|
(Mushrooms * 51 Super * 51 Ultra * 64 Max * 76) / 256 | (Mushrooms * 20 Super * 25 Ultra * 30 Max * 51) / 256 |
- The Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga Official Player's Guide erroneously states that the Chuckola Pants, Heavy Slacks, Light Slacks, Jeanie Jeans, Jeaniest Jeans, Safe Guard, Bros. Life, and Bros. Respect can be dropped by enemies. These gear go unused in the actual game.
