Editing Bust a Groove (section)

==Release==
In Japan a premium version was released containing a "premium disc" with four movies. Accomplishing certain tasks in the game unlocks certain movies. One of the movies features Hatsumi Morinaga, the artist responsible for singing the theme of Kitty-N's stage. This feature contains shots of the artist singing the song in the studio, an interview with the artist, and a live-action version of the game, with costumed Japanese dancers taking the parts of the various characters. The other three movies contained within the disc were all for other Enix games: ''[[Astronōka]]'', ''[[Star Ocean: The Second Story]]'', and ''Hello Charlie'' (released as ''[[Eggs of Steel]]'' in the U.S.). The premium version is otherwise identical to the game-only version.
