Very strange formatting and things discussed here.

The 64DD Doshin the Giant has you playing as the titular character, who tries to help the natives of various islands. Doing good deeds for the islanders results in hearts, which in turn allow Doshin to do bigger and better things.

It got a "sequel" a year later called Kyojin no Doshin Kaihou Sensen Chibikko Chikko Daishuugou and was later rereleased on the GameCube.

64DD vs. GameCube

The 64DD version was only released in Japan so can only be played in Japanese. The GameCube version saw both a Japanese and a European release so it can be played in English, German, French, Spanish, and Italian, or in Japanese. There is a patch that changes the European release from PAL to NTSC so it can be played on NTSC-U consoles.

The GameCube release adds many new features. A flower is required to get villagers to build monuments. Doshin is able to slide down hills. A couple of the monuments are different. There are also some differences in the villagers and the way Doshin interacts with them. Multiple endings were added and extra islands as well.

As for text differences, Sodoru's dialogue has many changes including updates to add the flower mechanic. The 64DD version includes dialogue from the villagers every morning which was removed for the GameCube version. The night text also has differences. At the code level, the GameCube text is entirely textures while the 64DD text is mostly encoded as text.

Sodoru

Sodoru's words are both spoken and displayed as text, but the displayed text does not always match the spoken word.
