To do:
|
Despite the name, Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero is basically a retelling of the first two Dreamcast Shutokou Battle/Tokyo Xtreme Racer games due to a platform switch to the PlayStation 2. The localized versions has almost all of the rival names changed to Western-sounding ones, once a common practice in anime brought to American television when the game was released.

Unused Text

Descriptions for traffic cars, naturally unused since they are not meant to be purchased by the player. Two of them (one of them specifically describing the construction cars) appear thrice, since there are three variations of them.
Regional Differences
To do: The Japanese version has FMV cutscenes for completing each stage (defined as new areas being unlocked). The title screen is also animated. |
Racer Names
The international version renames most of the race opponents. However, the international version of Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 keeps the names as is, so returning characters that should be recognizable by name aren't in the international version.
Honda Chassis Codes
All car chassis codes for Honda cars in the game were changed in the international release, possibly to avoid any implications of sponsorship by Honda:
JP Version | International Version | Corresponding Car |
---|---|---|
PP1 | YT1 | Beat |
EF8 | ML11 | CR-X SiR '91 |
EF8G | ML11C | CR-X SiR '91 (glass roof option) |
EG6 | QW3 | Civic SiR-II '93 |
EKC | QW | Civic Coupe Si (USDM import) |
EK9 | QX7 | Civic Type-R '97 |
EK9M | QX7A | Civic Type-R '98 |
BB6S | O89G | Prelude Type S '96 |
DC2 | MH5 | Integra Type-R '95 (2-door) |
DC2M | MH8 | Integra Type-R '98 (2-door) |
DB8 | ML3 | Integra Type-R '95 (4-door) |
DB8M | ML5 | Integra Type-R '98 (4-door) |
CH9 | 4K1 | Accord Wagon SiR-T '99 |
CL1 | 4E1 | Accord SiR-T '00 |
CFA | 4BV | Accord EX Sedan (USDM import) '99 |
CHA | 4BU | Accord EX Coupe V6 (USDM import) '01 |
AP1 | JS4 | S2000 '99 |
AP1HT | JS4L | S2000 '99 (hard top option) |
NA1 | RPT6 | NSX Type R '92 (3000cc) |
NA2 | RPT7 | NSX Type S '97 (3200cc) |
AP1HTK | JS4X | Dark Producer's S2000 |
NA2K | RPT7B | Dreamy Ghost's NSX Type S |
NA1K | RPT6B | Golden Wind's NSX Type R |
For ease of editing, the "TYPE-" prefix has been omitted.
Curiously, one car, TYPE-RF2, went unchanged, possibly because the car in question, the Honda Stepwgn, was not sold in the west and wasn't a widely known model by JDM enthusiasts. Also, the international chassis codes for the 2-door Integra Type Rs reveal the revision year of the cars.
