Futaba Racers

Futaba Racers (双葉レーサー, Futaba rēsā) is a Japanese Racing Game Created by Futaba Games in the Year 2003.

Gameplay
You Choose your Character you want to race, then you choose a kart, You could press the A (B for the Super Famicom Release) Button to Accelerate and the B (Y for the Super Famicom Release) Button to Decelerate, You Can Press The Arrows on the D-Pad to Move on your Direction, The Super Famicom Version uses the Super FX chip for Scaling and Rotating Sprites, Otherwise, The Game should Have Separate Sprites (depending on the Position), The GBA Version uses the Same Graphics Mode as Mario Kart: Super Circuit, It Uses ME-Tan and Other characters from Futaba Channel.

Microsoft Racers
Microsoft Racers is a separate Release of Futaba Racers released outside of Japan for the GBA, It Features ME-Tan And Office Assistants (such as Clippy), This Release Removed Fire on Cars (as it was too offensive) as well as Religious References (due to Nintendo's Censorship Policies), The Game is fully translated into English.

Fish Racers
Fish Racers is The Same Game as Microsoft Racers, Except this time, It Features Fishes from Fishing Simulator, This Led to some fans thinking that The Game is a ripoff or a sequel, They Are Separated Because Futaba Racers not only Features Characters from Futaba Channel, but it also contains characters from Gaming Game.

The Localization Team Stated in an interview with IGN: We Split The Game into Two Just Like How Sega Splitted Sonic 3 into Two Games. The Races Has Also Changed to look more aquatic.

More Changes are explained here.

Super Mario Kart Leftovers
These Mario Sprites are Taken From Super Mario Kart, This May Suggest That Mario Was Originally Meant to be Unlockable in The Game But Due To Copyright Issues, It Was Scrapped.

Kirby
A Sprite for Kirby, Which is used as a placeholder or as a Dummy Sprite, This May Come from The Title Screen of a Scrapped Kirby Game for the Famicom that later became ME-Tan no Boken for The Super Famicom.

Windows Logo
A Windows Logo that Replaces Graphics for Japanese Characters.

Bill Gates, Creator of Microsoft Stated: We Don't Speak Japanese, Japanese Has More Letters than English, So We Leave this Windows Logo by replacing certain Japanese Characters.

Fishing Simulator Title Screen
A Leftover from the NES Release of Fishing Simulator, This Sprite is, of course, The Title Screen.

Wilhelm Scream
The Popular Wilhelm Scream is found in the game's files, Though it is low quality in-game when played.

This Sound Effect Could Possibly a Joke To Developers, as stated in an interview with IGN: Yes, It Is a Joke, The Developers Laughed when we heard this.

Logo
The Logo has been changed per region.

A sound effect was added in the Logo for the Microsoft Version, again, it is low quality in-game.

Races
Every Race in Fish Racers is water-themed, with the exception of the Box Art.

Haunted Race
To Avoid Religious References, The Christian Symbol had been replaced with a Tombstone Saying R.I.P.

Characters
The Characters are changed per region.

Losing
In The Japanese release, the fire appears when you Crash on a Car, on the Western Release, however, This is not the case (as Car Crashing Was Removed, so did the fire).

Languages
The European Version added a Language Select.

Anti-Piracy Measures
If The SRAM size is more than 8KB on the Super Famicom Release, or that The Save Type is not Flash 64K on the GBA Release, The Game won't Start, instead, it tells you to buy the Game.
