It has nothing to do with the japanese version. The translation was subpar when compared to Earthbound, likely because they tried too hard to remain faithful to the japanese version. It lacked the charm of Earthbound and ended up feeling completely unlike Earthbound, which wouldn't have happened if the Treehouse localized it. It's likely why the translation was rejected by Nintendo. It wasn't very good.
