Samurai Slice/Development

Rhythm Heaven

Samusai Slice consists of the following versions in Rhythm Heaven:

Internal Name	Image	Used in
samurai		Samurai Slice

Unused Content

There are unused sprites in this game, depicting the Ninjas from Ninja Bodyguard, and the character from Arrow Space, a microgame in WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!, which has a similar aesthetic to this game.

Regional Differences

The Wandering Samurai has a different appearance in Rhythm Sesang, his clothing looking like a "pojol" (Korean police during the Joseon period). Samurai Slice in Rhythm Heaven Fever and Super Samurai Slice in Rhythm Heaven Megamix also got redesigned characters, although they share a different design to this one.

Rhythm Heaven Fever

Samurai Slice consists of the following versions in Rhythm Heaven Fever:

Internal Name	Image	Used in
samurai/ver0		Samurai Slice
samurai/ver1		Samurai Slice 2
samurai/remix04		Remix 4
samurai/remix08		Remix 8
samurai/remix10		Remix 10

Unused Content

• During Samurai Slice 2's story cutscene, the last scene shows the Bunny Man requesting of The Wandering Samurai to save his bunny, or to buy him a new one. In Minna no Rhythm Tengoku, there is a third line which goes unused: だから、あなたは誰？ (So, who are you?^?)

Regional Differences

In Rhythm Sesang Wii, the characters featured in this game have their traditional Japanese clothing altered to resemble Korean traditional clothing, called "Hanbok". Interestingly, The Wandering Samurai's appearance is different from that of the Samurai Slice in Rhythm Sesang. Additionally, in the Superb epilogue, the colors of the background were changed from red and yellow to blue and cyan.

In the background of Samurai Slice, the snow layer on the mountain in the background was removed in Rhythm Sesang Wii (presumably to remove the resemblance to Mount Fuji), however this change was oddly not represented in Remix 8, nor in the game's reapparance in Rhythm Sesang: The Best+. In Samurai Slice 2, the the sign over the door in the bottom right was changed in each version, most notably the removal of a wine glass on the sign.
