Another bunch of misspellings, glitches and bugs were fixed too. Those two changes are that Ganondorf's blood color was changed from red to green, and that the chanting in the Fire Temple was removed completely. It was the first official fully international release, and contained two significant changes to make it more culturally neutral and suitable for an international market. Version 'v1.2' wasn't completed until about a week before the North American release (10th(PAL)/12th(NTSC) November 1998). This version had some small changes, for example, a lot of spelling errors, bugs and glitches from v1.0 was fixed. Having a build date of just five days after v1.0 (26th October 1998), this revision replaced v1.0 in stores almost immediately after it was sold out. Most (if not all) of the North American first-production-run copies of the game is of this version. Its build date is 21st of October 1998 about one month before the game hit the shelves in North America. This was the version which is equivalent to the Japanese version of the game. It should be noted that the stock of ROM chips and labels may well have been made in independent quantities, so different label versions on cartridges may not necessarily mean that the ROM chips in them are of different versions. Only the label and the ROM chips have to be custom made for each game in this process, so preparing a new stock of a game-title was a simple task which would take only about a month.

N64 cartridges consist of a plastic cover with a label, a Printed Circuit Board, and a set of ROM chips with other minor components.

Due to the nature of manufacturing, it takes some time between when a product is completed and when it hit the shelves.
