Whirlwind Fanfare is a Wanderer in Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3. She drives a red Suzuki Wagon R (MC22S) with a custom hood, grille, body kit, wheel arches, and gray wheels.

Driver Info[]

"The mother of an only child, her hobby is chasing bands. Since her husband is currently overseas on business, she is staying with her parents in Ashiya in Hyogo Prefecture."

Car Info[]

"She left the car that she used on the highway back home, so she is using the car at her parents' house. she is customizing the car unbeknownst to her parents."

Appearance[]

She can be found on the Sakai In (Osaka), but it is very difficult to get her to appear. Here's why:

To race her, you MUST have 100,000,000 CP. In the Japanese version of the game, CP is measured in yen and it is possible to have 100,000,000 CP. In the NTSC version of the game, CP is measured in dollars, and the maximum amount of CP you can have is 99,999,990 CP. The ONLY way to get 100,000,000 CP in the NTSC version is by cheating! If you have Gameshark, put in a cheat code for unlimited CP, and then put the game in and proceed as normal. You should be able to get her to appear if you've done this correctly.

01/29/2024 NON-AUTHOR'S NOTE: It's now possible to race Whirlwind Fanfare in the NTSC version WITHOUT the need of Cheat Engines via emulation! Recently, a patch made by Kinglink was released at ROMhacking.net which changes the required money values for both Whirlwind Fanfare and Exotic Butterfly to arround 1.000.000 CP and 200.000 CP respectively.

This link will take you to Kinglink's page. Click "Download" and do the CAPTCHA (this will automatically download the patch), then extract the file and and put it in the PCSX2's "patches" folder (or the "cheats" folders in any case). Now open PCSX2 and right-click TXR3 and go to Properties > Patches, if you did all the prior steps correctly, the "Wanderers Fix" option should appear as the image below, now click the "Enabled" box and then "Close". And done! Now you should be able to challange Whirlwind Fanfare and Exotic Butterfly as it was originally intended!

It's not known (yet) if you can do the same thing at real hardware. For now, this patch is only available through emulation, but this will be added here once this is possible. Thank you for your attention!
