The Adventures Of Bayou Billy...As many of you know, I recently completed this extremely difficult game. Anyway, this made me think of something. It reminded me that games in Japan are usually tougher than they're US Counterparts. Seeking an even greater challenge, I bought the Japanese Version, titled "Mad City" on eBay, and proceeded to put it into a Famicom-To-NES Adapter, which I got out of my copy of Gyromite. After doing this, I booted the game up, only to be greeted with a great shock: Mad City was way easier than Bayou Billy! "Why?!" I thought to myself. "Why would Konami do this to us?!". The only conclusion I can come to is that some sadist at Konami got the bright idea to teach us American Gamers some kind of harsh lesson. Mad City is so EASY compared to Bayou Billy that it's not even funny. I also learned that some content was taken out of the US Release, such as:
A Quiz Mode Extra Endings Easier Driving Stages Some Graphic Changes
There's even an option to let the player end Billy's relationship with Annabelle at the end! I guess I can kind of understand why that was taken out, but there was no excuse for Konami to remove the rest of the content. Anyway, that's it for this rant. I just found this to be very shocking.
