* AdaptationExpansion: The SegaGenesis version has more levels and characters. [[NoExportForYou This version was ported to the Amiga for Europe only]], though this version lacks the music.

* GenreShift: The original game is a 2D fighting game. The sequel is going to be a 3D beat-em-up.

** Also, when you face Sett Ra, Shaq tells him to release Nezu when he just saved him earlier.
