Unused Dialogue

This is a sub-page of Jet Grind Radio (Dreamcast).

All of the voice clips for DJ Professor K are stored in the file SND_DJTALK.AFS. Inside are several unused clips and alternate takes. Some file names have a "u" appended to the end, which suggests it was intended for the US (or just international) release. In the end, the original dialogue was kept, Japanese words and all.

Strangely, the alternate takes would end up in the Game Boy Advance adaptation of Jet Set Radio, albeit in text-only and shortened form.

I'm the ronin of the radio / Cuttin' rhymes with a Yamato- / -damashii, got the spirit inside of me / I got no equals, just like Miyamoto Musashi / Like a katana to your cranium / Sega games, just keep playin' 'em / With lyrics like a bullet train, so tight / It's like I'm doin' judo in your brain, let's fight / But you can never beat me, with my lyrical karate / So call it hip-hop, or rap, or urban haiku / It'll bust your head like a pair of nunchaku / You're chokin' on my flow while eatin' your udon / I'm spillin' mad wasabi on the microphone

Intended for the scene after beating the first Shibuya-cho stage, Shibuya GG. A shortened, very altered (and localized) version is used in the GBA version in the aforementioned scene. However, the full spoken version may have proved to be too long to fit in a typical broadcast, so it was completely canned.
