Unused Japanese Localization

To do: Rip all of the voice clips and translate them to English. Rip the kanji font. Rip the pause menu logo.

There are unused Japanese voice clips, an unused kanji font and an unused Japanese "logo" of the Grinch used in pause menu from a cancelled Japanese version of the game in the PlayStation, Dreamcast and PC versions. The Japanese localization was cancelled due to the developer team missing the Christmas deadline and Konami wasn't interested in releasing it after the holidays.
