D.J. Boy is a port of Kaneko's Hip Hop-themed rollerskate brawler. The arcade, Genesis, and Mega Drive versions are all unique games that feature different stages and enemy layouts. The Arcade version is the hardest, the Genesis version is slightly easier, and the Mega Drive version is the easiest by far.
The Genesis version has a tunnel section where you can only see a small radius around D.J. Boy. This is not present in the Mega Drive or arcade versions. The U.S. version color-swapped the first boss and made her throw pies instead of fart. This was likely due to the racially insensitive original character design.
I love D.J. Boy. The combat is simple and emphasizes spacing but it's solid and very satisfying. There are a lot of level gimmicks and platforming elements but they're not so bad once you memorize the stage. The presentation is modest yet charming. The US version is way harder than the Japanese one and features slightly different graphics.
