I've entertained that very possibility in the past, strangely enough. I think the compelling evidence was the inclusion of the unreleased tracks (one of which was used in the SNES version). So I thought it could well be what Yonemitsu and CUBE were given to then arrange for the PCE and SNES, respectively. I was hoping Foliage would sort it out and Falcom would release some sort of premium box, like they did with Felghana, but alas.

Whatever it is, it sounds awesome. The enhanced bass really makes some of my favourite tracks stand out.
