In all honesty, the whole story about Sony denying them a NA release sounds like a terrible Internet rumor. Plus there was never any evidence of this all even really happening.
OMG~! I have the soundtrack to this game and I always watched my boyfriend play this on the Saturn but it stunk because it was all in Japanese! I can't wait to try it out in English. <3
I have the actual game for my SEGA Saturn. Am I going to be able to somehow play the translation with that? I don't get how this works. And when is it gonna be released?
You named yourself ''AAA A'' and your nickname ''Akainu''. Aka-inu can mean ''Red dog''. That's kind of funny.=) We usually say Aka(i)-inu, alternatively.
I just wanted to thank you on behalf of every megaten fan for your hard work. I greatly enjoyed your translation of Tsumi, and I was finally able to play a game I've been wanting to play for YEARS.
you guys rock HARD. I know this sounds like asskissing, but the truth is, if it wasn't for you guys, a lot of people would never get the chance to enjoy these games. and they're too good to miss out on.
Man, I wish you guys finished the translation, seriously, this is one game I want to play. Just wish there was a meter that showed how much progress was covered in translating this.
@portablegamer I had a feeling it would take about 2-3 people to translate and add it into the code. Was there much trouble on your side? I can tell you did more than just slap the script into a translator and call it quits; I feel that some professionals have done that for some J-games I've played. I'm guessing this took a few weeks to read, translate, and add a few cultural references, minus actual coding.
Also, I'd like to thank you and Gemini for a job well done.
That looks incredible! I still bust out my Sega Saturn import copy of the game from time to time and try figure things out, but I'm definitely missing out on the story aspect of the game.
The Persona 2: Innocent Sin translation was fantastic, this could be even better!
This is amazing. Was it just you, or did you have others helping you out? I just wanted to know who to thank for this. Can't wait to play the finished product. It still baffles me why most companies won't just put in the man hours to get this done. How long did it take for you to translate this?
@CandyHam: I just put this together in kind of a hurry, no wonder I didn't care to fix smaller things. :p At the moment all the text bugs you see in this teaser are gone. Furthermore, I've tested the translated game on my PSP and it was practically sparkling.
@alexjxcx: you will get the usual patch for the original game and it will run wherever the Japanese version does, being it real hardware or emulator. And no, I'm not releasing any eboot. You can build one on your own.
@KMoroboshi: yup, it's the PSOne Books. That's the only version of the game I could find in stores. Still, it might be compatible with the other prints as well, but only a wide-range testing will tell if that's true.
Gemini...were it biologically possible, I'd bear your children.
I knew...I KNEW there would be an announcement on this around xmas, I just knew it. Like the Innocent Sin announcement that was around xmas, and Tales of Phantasia PSX...all the big announcements come at xmas time.
I'm happy to know that there are many foreign Megaten fans.
The translations are perfect, great work guys!!

Thank you for the translation.
@geminimewtwo I just bought the Saturn ver. and was hoping to play the game.
Was there an attempt to try the Saturn ver.? Look at my channel, I develop(ed) on the Saturn and may be of some help.
