Bare Knuckle III EN Hack (JP Streets of Rage 3): Round 2 (Axel, Normal)
4Remember, the kid’s name of Eddie “Skate” Hunter is a dub name for him. The Japanese version of this series originally called him Sammy Hunter.
He much more pissed in the Japanese version after Shiva fled, here. That language! Afterwards, Zan leads the team through the shopping district to reach the disco center known as Atlas. The American version cleaned up Sammy/Skate’s profanity and had Blaze lead the team towards the disco place, instead.
Sammy/Skate isn’t the only character to have their name changed between versions, many enemies, and even bosses have different names between regions.
For more examples, this level’s midboss, tamer Danch, and kangaroo Victy, were respectively renamed Bruce and Roo in the American version. The main bosses of Yasha and Orihime were renamed Mona and Lisa. Those female Garnet enemies were renamed Soozie...
----------
Beating those two twins did have the same/almost-same outcome. The news reporter states that General Petrov was kidnapped by Axel, and he has to turn himself in for his crime.
But how can this be? Why would Axel, our main star, be the kidnapper?
There was no time to deal with this. Based on the note that the heroes got from the sky, the General is somewhere at the construction site near District K.
----------
One more thing I haven't covered about regional changes: There tends to be ever-prescene sound effects during dialogue cutscenes, such as waves crashing on the shore like at the start of this video where everyone was still near the piers, and the bubbling noise at the end of this video, like either from aquarium in the background.
These sounds don't exist in the American version of this game.
