Except it's also $20 for the US version. The US version also fixed some of the framerate issues that the Japanese version suffered from.

Not quite. They fixed part of the slowdown, but added a lot of stuff in and in the end it pretty much amounts to the same. Though. The difficulty levels are fixed (much harder), there are many more enemies, the way the ex-bar replenishes makes more sense (there's a limit) and bosses have a life bar. Off the top of my head.

So the american version is the way to go, yes. Were it not for the slowdown it might be my favorite game on the platform. Quite.

That's why I said they fixed some of the framerate issues.. But I definitely agree that while it's too bad that the framerate issues aren't gone, the US version is the way to go.
