The story wasn't cut at all for Easy Type. It was simplified and made impenetrably vague by the SNES translation, though. Cain's backstory about his father and the lineage of Dragon Knights isn't even mentioned, for instance.

The DS remake isn't alone with its promise of added story, the GBA Remake boasted "expanded storyline" on the back of the box. I'm wondering, if the statement above is true, did that content make it back into the GBA port (basically a combination of easytype with hardtype in that case).
The game's script was completely relocalized for the PlayStation port. Everything that was lost in the SNES cut was restored, and the GBA port's localization was based upon this one.
