I haven't seen a video uploaded yet with just the NA/EU title screen so I'm fixing that now!
As you may or may not know, the JP version's title screen plays the theme "Phantasy Star Zero." We would recognize this theme as the opening song in the NA/EU version. It is also played in both versions after beating the final boss on Eternal Tower floor 101.
The JP version got its own unique opening theme titled 負けないココロ or Undefeated Heart, sung by Hatsune Okumura. This theme is unfortunately removed from a lot of official digital playlists but it was present on the original physical soundtrack CD.
The one oddity out of all of this is the NA/EU versions seem to have their own unique title screen theme that does not seem to be collected on any of the officially released soundtracks. I don't think it has a name either. I think it is quite lovely, personally.
One of the many mysteries of this game. Another mystery is who the English dub voice actors are since they are uncredited. Maybe one day we will learn the secrets!
I suppose if we are going to get technical, this specific video would be the NA version's title screen. You can tell because it has the "online interactions not rated by the ESRB" on the bottom screen. If this were the EU version, the bottom screen would simply be blank. This is a moot point since this is a very trivial difference between the western versions, but it makes for a nice fun fact, right?
