Jet Set Radio is NOT the same game as Jet Set Radio Future

Jet Set Radio Future is also NOT a sequel to Jet Set Radio

Jet Set Radio Future is a REIMAGINING of Jet Set Radio.

We'll discuss in the episode, but there are A LOT of differences between these two games.

Both are amazing games. They should be re-released/remastered under a single package. That’s would be really nice.

Hey but at least we have a new JSR game coming, hopefully sometime soon.

Jet Set Radio Future is not the same game as Jet Set Radio, however Jet Grind Radio IS the same game as Jet Set Radio.

retroblast.bsky.social•18 hours ago

Correct, aside from a few additions JGR got from the Japanese release.

jecobian.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Jet set radio future is a remix to jet GRIND radio

retroblast.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Jet Grind Radio is just the NA renaming because of licensing issues, but for the sake of keeping everything less confusing I'm just calling it by its actual title. 👍

quest64official.bsky.social•22 hours ago

What about Jet Grind Radio though 😎

filthymick.bsky.social•20 hours ago

Like it, nice one

retroblast.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I knew it was coming, lol. Imagine my dilemma in titling this episode for release. Jet Set (also Grind in NA, but it's still Jet Set in the game lolol) Radio.

It's weird because "Jet Grind Radio" sounds like it would be the name of a sequel but it's actually just the USA version of the first one

Jet ________ Radio

smoothpursuit.bsky.social•22 hours ago

I totally understand all of this

gshumi.bsky.social•23 hours ago

Think of JSRF as the "Remix" of Jet Set Radio.

retroblast.bsky.social•23 hours ago

This is a good way to look at it, actually!

ecchijoker.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Never knew there was a difference, I thought it was just Sega rereleasing the game after the Dreamcast failed.

cultofjenova.bsky.social•23 hours ago

That's interesting, I always assumed it was a direct sequel

writerryan.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Okay. Are there any jets in either game?

astrotibs.bsky.social•19 hours ago

There are clearer ways you could have said that.

weirdogeek.bsky.social•10 hours ago

It still needs a Steam port.

cocofondu.bsky.social•22 hours ago

I didn't know this for certain, but yeah, JSRF never really felt like a sequel to me. It's nice to know that my instincts were correct.

evolust.bsky.social•20 hours ago

That's an episode I look forward to :)

wessoman.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Why does Gum even hang out with Beat and everybody else?

retroblast.bsky.social•19 hours ago

Hahaha, this is great 😆

filthymick.bsky.social•20 hours ago

I'm sorry...whenever was this not clear? SOURCE: played the original to death and bought an XBox ONLY to play JSRF and Halo. Both of which I played to death. It's very obvious... If you've played 'em

sonicsean34.bsky.social•20 hours ago

God, I wish I had got a copy of Future when it was still affordable and easy to find. Not even played thru most of the Dreamcast game but I’d like to have the sequel. Maybe they’ll remaster it one day.

brainiac345.bsky.social•21 hours ago

I had no idea, I always future was the sequel. I remember playing this game on an old Xbox demo disc when I was kid but I’m thinking buying the actual game so that I can get the full experience.

rebanosagrado.bsky.social•21 hours ago

There was also jet set radio on the gameboy advance! && Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is a really good homage to these games

chronogam3r.bsky.social•23 hours ago

I already knew this 🥸

joolzmadcat.bsky.social•23 hours ago

JSRF was too short.. Was just really getting into it and it was over.. Introduced me to Cibo Matto.. and the rest is history.

marklaskey60.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Love your content mate always a joy seeing your retro video game posts

cryptictx55.bsky.social•11 hours ago

Explanation unclear; so Jet Set is a Megaten game

mikeke352.bsky.social•19 hours ago

I've played Jet Set Radio many times. I tried Jet Set Radio Future for the first time really and the change in physics/handling REALLY threw me off. A lot of it feels similar, but they charge movement faster and are waaay lighter. It was interesting

ctrlaltrichie.games•22 hours ago

Also, if you can get through the rigmarole to get this to run at 480p on a VGA monitor, it looks eye wateringly good.

rentsy.bsky.social•23 hours ago

honestly i didn’t even know there was 2 😔

retroblast.bsky.social•23 hours ago

I think a lot of people had no clue, tbh! I only remember because I played the Dreamcast game first when it came out.

drufice.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Jet Grind, or bust.

Coin, baby.

mistapolarbear.bsky.social•23 hours ago

I played a TON of Jet Set Radio Future on my OG Xbox. Some great times playing way into the night with my best friends. Gaming back then was full of heart and they took the time to be creative. Nowadays it's all the same game with a new coat of pain and more and more microtransactions.

stevoyah.bsky.social•23 hours ago

👀👀ooooo

northwestlowlife.bsky.social•22 hours ago

I knew about the 2. My friend had a Dreamcast so we'd play the original at his house, and when I got an Xbox I played future. Both were good though!

dreamcat.bsky.social•10 hours ago

Future is the better game tbh. Bomb Rush is the perfect successor. The one I waited 20 years for.

retrologicgames.bsky.social•22 hours ago

So basically ...

retroblast.bsky.social•22 hours ago

.... I mean yea 😅
