Are there any big differences between the Japanese and US versions of Forgotten Worlds?

I am not aware, but I guess the shop uses English instead of Japanese.

English text, but they couldn't be bothered to redo the spoken stuff.  The PCE version also lets you pick between the original arcade voices (shop girl and player's grunts and screams) and new ones.

Did either version come with a 3 button controller?

Yes, the PCE version was bundled with the Avenue Pad 3.

I believe the PCE version was also sold without it.

So does this mean that the US version is missing all the grunts and screams or that they just didn't remake them?

Yeah, it's just the shop lady's voice that's missing entirely.  The rest of the stuff is there, using the audio from the arcade.

ah okay, so it's basically like the difference between lords of thunder and winds of thunder. Thanks for the info.
