RegionIcon.png This game has regional differences.


Hmmm...
To do:
Some unused music exists within the game files. Rip and upload those songs.

Crash Nitro Kart on Game Boy Advance plays like Mario Kart: Super Circuit with the attributes of a Crash kart racer. It's notable for being the only version of Nitro Kart to have Spyro as a playable character.

Regional Differences

Hmmm...
To do:
Many characters have different voice lines in the Japanese version. Rip and upload the differing voice lines from the Japanese and international versions.
International Japan

Just like the console versions, the main theme differs between regions. The international version uses cartoonish music, the Japanese version uses Hideo Suwa - "Cracra Baban".

The copyright screen is different between regions, both in text and font.

Both the developer logo and title screen are animated in the international version, while the Japanese version uses still images instead.

As expected, the TNT crates are labelled with a bomb icon.

Miscellaneous

Hmmm...
To do:
Rip and upload the songs which differ between the Japanese and international versions. Also check if the full songs are still present within the international version's files.
  • In-game music is properly looped in the Japanese version, resulting in numerous songs being longer than in other versions.
  • On the high scores menu, a web URL is present with a special code for each level, likely used for player leaderboards.
