You can’t even comprehend how important Eien ni Hen’s work is to the fan translation community. Romancing SaGa, Fire Emblem, Sakura Wars, Tear Ring Saga, Glory of Heracles, Dragon Force II, Dark Half, Beyond Oasis, Psi-O-Blade, Arabian Nights, and so much more. What a loss. Rest in peace.

@chetsucks.com I got a quick question. In the recently leaked June 2008 build of L4D1, we noticed that the suicide note from No Mercy's apartments got removed in the final release. An unused model of a corpse that committed suicide by hanging was also found but it's unknown in which campaign it was.

I'm trembling while writing this: Kamaitachi no yoru—not the PC remake, not the iOS port, but the actual original SFC version—has been translated at last by ButThouMust, who graciously brought us an English patch for Otogirisou in the past. This is HISTORICAL.

One fascinating thing about difference between Dreamcast and other versions of Ever17 is that in the DC ver. Sora's stole isn't transparent at all. This is exclusive to Dreamcast for some reason.

Been hard at work lately~ Now the full Event Replay menu has been added to AT1, allowing replay of synthesis chats, talk topics and Cosmospheres. The synthesis chats also include unused conversations for two items (Yuteria String and FFT Divider) as bonuses.

To this point, I will also reiterate that PS3 and PS Vita digital download preservation remains incomplete, particularly for Japanese games and DLC, where I imagine the bulk of that work has taken place abroad. This essentially gives a one-year deadline to plug some sizeable, yet quite tricky holes.

The absolute state of gaming in the big 2026
Playstation, Xbox, and Epic Games send themselves back to the lobby with baffling business decisions, while Steam is executed by AI tech giants. Nintendo sits in the middle, confused and contemplating how it will live up to Playstation and Xbox's legendary failures.

Hi everyone We will be prepared for this when Sony delists their legacy PlayStation stores. We will shortly begin double checking our archives to ensure we have everything Puyo related available from the PlayStation 3 & Vita stores when the time comes. We will update you when possible. #PuyoPuyo

Semi related to classic visual novels... I'm starting to think that companies should seriously consider releasing classic VNs in whatever maximum resolution they have for the files. The recently re-released My Merry May with be HD remaster looks horrible. The AI upscaling looks horrible.

Also I just want to say that the Ever17 Himmel script is getting a TLC in the same way Remember11 got one with Gestalt. A lot of errors, mistranslations, and terminology will get corrected.

The second entry in KID's "infinity" series, Ever17 -the out of infinity-, is getting an English patch on the PS2! Originally released for the Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 in 2002, and later getting an official English loc in 2005... it is getting an English patch on home consoles for the first time.

I've been messing around with Neutrino's GSM on PS2 and surprisingly it's way better than OPL's GSM. In Ever17's case for example all videos were playing at lower framerate when using 480p on OPL but in Neutrino everything works!

Making sure the wrong doings of the past are corrected... all known translators behind Ever17's original English localization, which is sadly one for now..., are properly credited in-game.

Wrote a test harness that let me run the decompiled game in lockstep with the Ymir emulator, validating that for the same input, the game behavior remain faithful to the original code. This checks character position, camera, collisions, and can easily add more. #panzerdragoonsaga #reverseengineering

While I have never played the original PlayStation 1 release, the PlayStation 2 remake of Tales of Destiny is excellent. Beautiful 2D sprites with nice blending of "3D."
