On the title screen of these Export versions, Strider is written in English on top of the 'Hiryu' Kanji. The 'Hiryu' kanji are colored with a purple gradient. Instead of in the Japanese version's where Strider is written in katakana to the left of the 'Hiryu' kanji. The 'Hiryu' kanji starts out red, then catches on fire.

Also, in the US version, Strider Hiryu is missing his yell when swinging his sword.
