Hi Luis! I dont remember where i found those scans, but i dont visit GameFaqs often, so maybe they were re-uploaded on some other forum where then i found them :) I played the game too many years ago and i dont remember it very well, do you know exactly which differences are shown in those screens? It would be usefull to add some more info in the article!
