Checked the page, in the future you may want to link to the English version of the page directly, as it's easy to miss that there, in fact, is a translation available
The intro cutscene is buggy. The bugs also appear while playing (on the emulator, they are less present). There are problems with the late display of the decorations, the textures that are missing.
I noticed that, during play, my Dreamcast VA0 can't seem to keep up loading textures with the PAL version of Crazy Taxi - once it happens, it usually stays that way. Most of the time, the street is missing, which - while hilarious - is pretty annoying.
The reason i mention this is that it looks pretty similar to the screenshot on the site from the intro, but happening during the game.
What i've noticed is that the NTSC-J copy of Crazy Taxi (both regular release versions, not sure how one could pin the actual version being played "from the outside") does not exhibit this behaviour.
