This is the japanese version of Battle Arena Toshinden. It should be added to the P/C list.

The title is also false. It's spelled Toshinden and not Toushinden, there is also "Deadheat Fighters" written under the Nettou Kanjis.

Here is a high quality photo of the box http://nsm04.casimages.com/img/2010/09/18//100918083719626816773872.jpg

Regarding title:

This is a japanese game, so we use japanese title. We only follow alternative readings for boxart kanjis when spelled using hiragana/katakana. Boxart/publisher romanization is simply arbitrary most of the time, while we apply the same romanization rules for all titles.

First kanji in 闘神伝 reads "tou" using Hepburn romanization.
