-Each region's (Japan, North America, and PAL) games have their own track lists, with some overlap. While the NA/PAL versions have some pretty awful stuff, the Japanese versions have some decently fun J-Pop and anime themes. The third Japanese game (unreleased in the West) even has some Famicom music from Namco and Nintendo games---original versions, not covers.+Each region's (Japan, North America, and PAL) games have their own track lists, with some overlap.
