Jet Set Radio was released by Sega for the Dreamcast in 2000, developed by Smilebit and set in the fictional city of Tokyo-to. Its pirate radio host Professor K, cel shaded visuals and mix of funk, hip hop and electronic music made it a cult favourite far beyond its original console run. Short stings and idents from that world later circulated on gaming soundboards and in fan edits, where the name is often shortened online, keeping the game's distinctive street style alive in new clips.
