Are there any differences between the different versions of this game?

Alright. I'm asking because everyone plays the EU version of this game :)

There are 2 differences I know of. There is a language screen in the EU version which takes about 2 seconds. The NTSC version should be faster because it doesn't have the screen saving 2 seconds. There is also a crystal ball in the middle of the freeze tag arena in Gypsy road which it is possible to get the imps to get stuck in in NTSC that doesn't exist in PAL. The TAS uses this to freeze the imps really fast and it may be possible in RTA but I don't have the NTSC version so haven't tested it.

Hey there. I would just like to pop in and say that it is possible to get an imp stuck in the crystal ball RTA, for both rounds of freeze tag, and it's very easy to do. All you need to do is hold down the charge button once the screen turns black before you actually enter the "arena" area, and one imp is guaranteed to get stuck in the crystal ball, making the freeze tag much easier and quicker.

As for version differences, I don't know of any other version differences that Ongnissim hasn't already stated, but based on the crystal ball and the language screen, NTSC should definitely be faster.
