| Weird. PdP had not that much text, the characters could be looked up easily, since there were no kanji in the dialogues I think (although it is confusing without kanji sometimes). Of course, just an idea - I don't know how hard it actually is, when it comes to translating some text boxes and/or the hacking amount (simply using a hex editor to translate?). |

| Will ... yeah. I thought putting my hands on the tutorial in Sutte Hakkun. But again, this game has ... LOTS of text, I have a time hole (not enough spare time to handle university stuff _and_ putting in effort for a good translation), and I'd have to translate from Jp into English - and since English is not my native English, it would be very hard make it sound "right", not too stiff but not too lenient either. And I am simply not good enough because of it. Identifying kanji in games with not too low resolution is extremely easy with help of the internet, if you know the radicals. Problem is informal language sometimes, missing particles ...
And the question is: Close to the original or not? Let's mention that retranslation of Breath of Fire II by d4s, he and some other hackers translated from Japanese directly into German language, put in fancy HMDA effects, a song (!) and other cool stuff - but although accuracy is very important, it just doesn't fit there. Japanese tend to use double words often, like "to colour something with colours", of course two different words. So I also think, like in any other language it is similar like me? Mayme some people simply want to have everything perfectly, but cannot do (yet)? |

| I have a sneaking suspicion it involves that fact that you don't really need to understand the text to play the game, and the fact that it WAS already professionally translated (and localized). I can't really imagine the plot being horribly interesting. Granted, I haven't actually played this translation yet, but a good plot is hardly something the genre is well known for. |

| This is sort of a "who cares" thing because we already have a "translated" version of sorts, and the translation is mostly irrelevant anyway (like Adamant said). ____________________ =================== [Posted by NightKev] |

It was more of me complaining how MM1 isn't translated, considering the game heavily relies of what it's being said to the point it is barely playable like that, which kinda increases the chances of a game to be translated. ____________________
