Just wondering why is there a Japanese exclusive version of the first two games, but not this one? Come to think of it, why is there only Japanese versions of only 4 of the games all together, they have like 10 Crash ones.

I'm assuming that Spyro wasn't all that popular in Japan, and Crash was?

Mmm... I think Crash Bandicoot and Ape Escape were famous in Japan (I just watch a Bonus Video from ICO and the guys from the video said something like that o.0). It's weird because there is a secret area in Dino Mines level (Using the swimming in the air glitch), maybe that was an exclusive area for the Japanese version....

I reckon that area was just for when Insomniac ran out of time, and just had to scrap the idea, and didn't have time to delete the area. There wouldn't be much point if you can't get to the area normally, although it is strange that there is a transport back to the level again via the middle of the arena.

According to Wikipedia: "This is the only Spyro game in the PlayStation library to not get released in Japan."

I suppose you're meant to notice that, meaning that it could just be talking about the first three on the PlayStation.

There is a prototype version that was developed by Sugar and Rockets. There was even a video but it is no longer avalible since user closed account.

It was just basicly main menu and instead of insomniac, there was Sugar and Rockets, and game was called Spyro: Dragon no Toshi

Spyro failed in Japan because of the god terrible camera angle.

That's a matter of opinion; not an actual fact.

Anyways, S&R were developing a Japanese Version of the game and *planned* to release it in 2001, but it was cancelled when they Dissolved.

Then don't double post. Either delete your previous ones and quote him or edit your post to quote him manually.

I meant don't post two different things in a row without referring them to someone. It's easier if you quote otherwise you'll cause confusion.

Sorry this version does not excist. I posted a thread about it a while a go saying it was real but in reality I just made it up. Since then I've learned my lesson and I'm not going to fake anything like that again. I guess I did not think about how real other people are on the internet.

Anyhow, sadly there was no known plans to release the game in Japan. It's a shame really, would have loved to see it.
