Description
I managed to get my hands on the Japanese version of Spyro the Dragon for the Sony Playstation.
The physical copy of the game is extremely colourful!
It comes with a lot of wonderful artwork inside the manual and on the case.
It even includes an extra disk that I can't find any information on, due to:
A) Every review of this version online, has the Ape Escape Demo Disk on it and not this blue disk.
B) I can't read a majority of Japanese characters.
If you can find any information on it, that would be great!
EDIT: It is believed to be a Japanese Spyro 2 Demo Disk (Spyro x Sparx Tondemo Tours).
Credit to Silvertwilight05 for this theory.

It's actually not that hard.
Infact, it's probably easier than getting your hands on an original PAL version.
It cost me around £12 on Amazon and took around 2-3 weeks to get here.
My GUESS, is that they still make Crash and Spyro merchandise in Japan, so the
price isn't heavily effected like with the American or European versions.

I like how the made the manual look like a children's story book kind of reminiscent of The Snowman by Raymond Briggs.

It's definitely interesting!
Almost like a children's Story book! With amazing and colourful visuals!
I don't know if I will buy the second game in Japanese, but I imagine it will be similar.

It's a bit hard to read, but I can make out "Spyro x Sparx" on the blue disc, possibly a demo of Spyro 2? (titled "Spyro x Sparx Tondemo Tours in Japan)

Ah, I assumed it was demo disk, but I didn't consider it could be a Japanese Spyro 2 demo!
Thanks for your suggestion!

I actually searched the code on the front of the disc (SCPS 10128) and got this: psxdatacenter.com/games/J/S/SC… and then this: page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/a… .
In short, you may actually have a copy of the full game. If you have a PAL playstation (or some other way to play the disc) it would be worth checking out.

I will definitely see if my emulator will run it!
Thanks a lot for doing the research!
I'll get back to you as soon as I have time to try it out!
