Updates

The US version has the "Winners Don't Use Drugs" screen.

In the Japanese version's 'Vs.' screen, a chapter title is displayed as well as the model number of each players' VA. The titles and model numbers are missing from the US version.

After a 1P vs 2P match in the Japanese version, the winning character speaks his (or her) victory quote and it is written on screen as well. In the US version, the victory quote is just written on screen (without the voice sample).

There is a POWEREDGEAR HIGHSCORE CAMPAIGN sequence after the staff credits on the Japanese version.

Devilotte's servants, Dr. Shutain and Jigoku Daishi, are renamed Xavier and Gary in the US version.

Gawaine's sword is called 'Magnablade' in the Japanese version. It is not referred to by name in the US version.
