Also exclusive to the Japanese version is this Axel Stone punching the camera, revealing the title. This scene is actually a tracing of in Rambo III, which may be why this is absent in the overseas version as well.Bare Knuckle IIIStreets of Rage 3Aside from the name change, 'Bare' fonts has burning animation and the copyright year is colored in Bare Knuckle III.Menu & Modes Bare Knuckle IIIStreets of Rage 3Like in the title screen, Streets of Rage 3 de-colorized the numbers on the menu. Also, 'Option' was changed to 'Options', and 'Players' was changed to 'Lives'.Character Select ScreenThe stats bars are measured differently, as are the measurements for a character's weight and height. The characters' height & weight is given in metric in Bare Knuckle III. Also, the blocks that represent the fighters stats are shown using the star sprite (as in SOR2) rather than the yellow block used in SOR3. The fighters stats are given using 10 stars (as in SOR2) instead of the bizarre system used in SOR3.Battle Mode Bare Knuckle IIIStreets of Rage 3Bare Knuckle III has character-specific win and lose quotes in the battle mode, which was removed entirely in Streets Of Rage 3.

His gloves are now purple instead of blue, and the rest of his outfit was changed to match Axel's new Streets of Rage 3 palette.Bare Knuckle IIIStreets of Rage 3Axel, Blaze, and Sammy/Skate's 'Player 2' palettes for Duel/Battle Mode were altered in Streets of Rage 3. Interestingly, Blaze's palette is similar to the single-player one used in Bare Knuckle III.Electra Bare Knuckle IIIStreets of Rage 3Garnet Bare Knuckle IIIStreets of Rage 3The female punks, Electra and Garnet, showed a lot more skin in Bare Knuckle III.
Streets of Rage 3 edited the sprites to cover things up, with Garnet's pose changed to be less provocative. One of Garnet's animations was also changed. In Bare Knuckle III, Garnet did an animation where she adjusts her hair.
This was changed in Streets of Rage 3 so Garnet instead does an animation where she punches her fists together.Removed MinibossIn Bare Knuckle III, there's a miniboss you fight at the pier passing through the level a few times on a speedboat before dropping off punks to attack the player. However, after defeating the last load of punks, Ash will jump out of the speedboat and attack the player.Miniboss PalettePlayer PaletteAsh is a homosexual stereotype miniboss who prances around and can move quite fast. He also laughs femininely after throwing the player and uses the female cry when he's beaten. He has his own music track, which can only be heard in Streets of Rage 3 as track 26 in the BGM test. If the player holds A when Ash is defeated and loses a continue later on, Ash will be playable from the continue menu.
Ash's attacks are very powerful and his punches inflict devastating damage on all enemies, including bosses. His speed is also incredible as well.His removal from Streets of Rage 3 was due to his controversial nature. A playable version of him is still coded into the ROM, but his miniboss coding was removed. In Streets of Rage 3, Shiva (the Round 1 boss and yet another secret playable character) will be driving the boat; instead of jumping out for a fight, he'll drop off a group of punks at the end of the pier and then drive away to where you confront him for the boss battle in the next part of the stage.To play as Ash in Streets of Rage 3, use Game Genie code BAWA-AAA0.ShivaShiva's color scheme was altered for the Round 1 boss fight. In Bare Knuckle III, he uses a dark green color palette. In Streets of Rage 3, he uses the player's palette instead (which makes him have a blue outfit). To do:imagesIn Streets of Rage 3, the barrels drop more frequently based on the difficulty setting.

The original Japanese version of the game that you may moreso know as Streets of Rage 3. When the game arrived in US territories, it went through a much greater assortment of changes and censorship that's unlike any that's happened to the previous two Streets of Rage games.This playlist will be a playthrough of the Japanese version of the game modded into English, so you can read on how different the Japanese version's script was from the American script if you can't read Japanese. This will also cover everything else that the game originally had and was before Sega of America made their edits.If you want to see the American version of this game, check the link below for it.
