Regarding Shell-branded gas stations in the arcade game "San Francisco Rush Extreme Racing" - why were the same gas stations rebranded "Fuel" in the Nintendo 64 versions of those same games?

Regarding Shell-branded gas stations in the arcade game "San Francisco Rush Extreme Racing" - why were the same gas stations rebranded "Fuel" in the Nintendo 64 versions of those same games?

When I played the arcade game "San Francisco Rush Extreme Racing," there were Shell-branded gas stations. But when I played the N64 version of that game, the same gas stations were rebranded "Fuel" with a smiley face logo in place of the Shell logo.

So why did Shell gas stations not retain their branding when the arcade game was ported to the Nintendo 64 console?

I would like to imagine it’s to promote the use of alternative fuels over gasoline, but that’s probably just idealism to think they’d do that.

Yeah, I figured it’d turn out to be something like that.
