    It seems that the gallery and character edit modes have been removed. I am also having a problem where I can't seem to get the game to run in English. Am I just looking in the wrong places?

    The win quotes are only in Japanese. I have no idea how they missed that but thankfully it doesn't affect the game in any meaninful way. There's no gallery mode and letes face it- whos going to miss it? There's no arranged soundtrack, obviously to keep the file size down.

    This is an odd, odd port. But whatever, its still a great game.

    Looks like the mode select stuff is in Japanese when you pick Ultimate, too.

    @Jeff: So the menus are in Japanese?  That is kinda goofy.

    @JJOR64 Yeah, you get the above...

    Also, what's up with the horizontal borders?  You can sort of see what I mean in the pic there.

    It seriously annoys the crap out of me.  I'll probably just get the PS2 version instead.

    Thankfully though, there is a translation for the Ultimate setting in the how to play section.

    I like the fact that there using the jap version but like many of you, I like to know what there saying at the end of the fight and what I'm picking in the ultimate groove.
