Xbox PAL & Japanese Import Exclusives List (leaked prototypes, too!)

I looked here and did some searching on google and did not find a good list of Xbox games that never came out in North America. This list is not complete and needs your help to fill in the gaps!

Muzzle Flash (don't worry you are not missing out as it's real turd~)
Thousand Land

Triangle Again
Shikigami no Shiro Evo Red

These are all JPN exclusive I believe...

[The 1 2 P]

Cool. I was waiting for a thread like this to be created. This will help with my import Xbox game list.

[dj898]

the thing is apart from usual shooters and what not the rest are exclusively in Japanese... Which limits their appeal to those who understand Japanese

[Vectorman0]

I know there are a ton missing still, especially European sports games, and Japanese language heavy games.

Thanks, I'll add these to the list.

Also, it looks like I might want to add an "Asian" category as you mentioned one game like that, and I think I may have encountered others browsing various websites.

[The 1 2 P]

Concerning the list for the PAL and Japanese exclusives, does anyone know if any of those games are region free? There are a few non-exclusive Xbox games I have from other regions (Ninja Gaiden NTSC-JAP and King Kong PAL) that are 100% compatible with my US Xbox. I'm hoping some of the games on those list are the same way.

[ProgrammingAce]

PAL:
Crash (destruction derby game)

[Vectorman0]

PAL:
Crash (destruction derby game)

This game came out in the US as "Totaled!"

[smork]

I'll confirm there is a Deluxe edition of SMT: Nine. It comes in a rather large box..

Isn't Double S.T.E.A.L. - The Second Clash JP exclusive?

[dj898]

Isn't Double S.T.E.A.L. - The Second Clash JP exclusive?

Yes~

Isn't Double S.T.E.A.L. - The Second Clash JP exclusive?

Any idea what came in the deluxe edition? I finaly found the basic version but not sure what made it so special.


Also, anyone know which of the Japanese versions work on N/A systems and what ones dont?

[Vectorman0]

Great first post!

The list is now about twice as big as it was before, and hopefully much closer to being complete. I added Prototype and "Special" sections per Trackback's request, since I think it makes sense. I guess "special" games can be defined as games that aren't technically exclusive but have notable differences.

I added a prototype section for US games as well, I hope in the future there will be more games to go there. Off the top of my head I can't think of any more leaked protos, but I think there are a couple. I added The Red Star to the PAL section as well.

Wrath Unleashed was released in the US. I have a PAL copy of Conan for the Xbox. It's by TDK, and is completely different than the later game that was released for the 360 by THQ.

[Vectorman0]

Thanks for the updates.

[Vectorman0]

Does anyone know if any of these Snooker Games were released outside of PAL territories?

Game spy list 2004 as us release but looks like 03/05 Europe only.

Sorry about Wrath Unleashed :(


Edit: Found more about the Club Football Series, seems like the same game but many versions. Not sure what the difference is between em but there is a bunch.
Check this link (http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/sports/clubfootball/similar.html?mode=versions)...not sure how you want to go about adding these.


Edit: More football ----> International Superstar Soccer 2
Robot Wars: Extreme Destruction - pal
Micro Machines- pal

[Cryomancer]

Double S.T.E.A.L. the second clash plays fully in English on a US Xbox. Voices and all. I assume it detects the console's language setting. It's also a sequel to the game we got as WRECKLESS: The Yakuza Missions.

[Trackback]

PAL
Ski racing 2005
Ski racing 2006
Sensible Soccer

Edit: Nice one on Double Steal

NTSC-J
Magi Death Fight
Aoi Namida
Nobunaga no Yabou
Lakemasters: Bass Fishing Game ???
Shinchou Mahjong
Angelic Concert
Ex-Chaser
Jikkyou World Soccer 2002

A few corrections a.k.a. Sorry, I F***ed up.

Plus Plum 2 is not a prototype still NTSC-J only
Braveknight Leverant Eiyuden should be Braveknight: The Knight of Lieveland (unless there is two games)
all Shikigami games are Castle Shikigami - This does not need changing just thought to note it so we would not add duplicates

Edit: Trivial Pursuit Unhinged is making me wonder a bit. Are the questions the same in both versions? Maybe it should be in special but i can not say for sure.

Game spot had this to say.

Readers are reminded that news of celebrity appearances by Whoopi Goldberg, John Cleese, and Terry Bradshaw, among others, remains the case, however this so only for the North American release.

edit: How close to being done do you think we are?

[The 1 2 P]

I'm still mad my copy of Wild Rings won't work on my US Xbox. I need to get a Japanese Xbox so I can track down some of those other games.

[Trackback]

DTM:Pro Race Driver 2 - Special edition designed for the German market. Includes tracks and cars not found in the UK and American equivalents.

Volvo: Drive for Life - Promotional game in Pal and NTSC-NA Not sure it was available through retail, does it make the special list?

Innocent Tears -NTSC-J.....Reg and SE

Edit: Taking another 2 year break?

Yonenaga Kunio no Shougi Seminar
Umezawa Yukari no Igo Seminar
Takahashi Junko no Mah-jong Seminar

these are all PAL obviously :p

[Shou]

Just some comments...

Probably should break up the list between Asia (excluding Japan) and Japan as even though they are both NTSC-J, the same games were not released in both regions (example: Daemon Vector is an Asia only release).

Knights of the Temple II did come out in Germany and Spain from what I've seen. Still have not seen a UK release.

There is no LE for the 1st Shikigami release.

Shin Megaten Nine has a LE.

Add Gene Troopers to the PAL list.
