Also note, the english is written for ps2, so it refers to x, triangle, circle and square, etc... So, even if it were swapped completely, it wouldn't make sense. Some of the guys at dcforums.co.uk were tackling this for a while and there was even talk about dubbing the button parts, but I don't think anything panned out.

It doesn't make much difference, you hear CHU or HEY most of the game, the button names are rarely mentioned in-game

I suppose playing the original japanese version (in a DC) isn't too bad anyway?

I'd go for the ps2 version if possible, I've never played the DC version aside from the hacked one, but I'm guessing the original must be good too

Ulala's voice sounds much sexier in Japanese. :wink:
