Common knowledge, but
>Donkey Kong was originally supposed to be a Popeye game. Nintendo would later make an actual Popeye arcade game.
>Alex Kidd in Miracle World was originally a Dragon Ball game. Also a SMB2 situation happened with Alex Kidd in Hi-Tech World, which was originally a licensed game based on Anmitsu-Hime in Japan.
>While the game was ultimately cancelled, Sunsoft considered flipping their NES Superman game into a game called "Sunman", mostly tweaking the sprites.
>Star Gladiator was supposedly meant to be a Star Wars fighting game, but LucasArts decided to go with Masters of Teras Kasai
>South Park was intended to have a GBC game to go with the console versions, but Trey and Matt decided against it. It apparently became a Maya The Bee game.

Momoko 120% was originally an Urusei Yatsura game. They lost the license but the music is still the UY theme song.

It finally got turned into an UY game on Famicom.
