Hello, my small team IS FINISHED WITH THE translation project for UPPERS! An over the top, flashy beat-em-up. The hacker on the team actually started the project alone as a rough menu translation only. I then contacted him about bringing translators on board and making a full translation of the game.

That's right! Right on the heels of the announcement for an official western release on PS4 and PC, the unofficial translation for VITA is now playable! :D
On behalf of the translation team, I hope you enjoy playing UPPERS! in english finally.
No link will be provided, as the patch does contain some assets, so it may not be allowed here, but if you've heard about it before, I'm sure you read it somewhere. XD


Current team:
TheQuietOne (me): Project coordinator, tester
Froid_San: Hacker, credit for initial menu translation
randomdice101: Translator (retired)
Bakura: Translator

CappDog: Spanish Translator
Tony Blue: Portuguese Translator

Current project status: Active
Menu translation 100%
Dialogue: Playable characters, Queens, etc. 100%

Story: 100%

Project release date: 8/18/2018


In case you are curious as to what the game is like, here's a short gameplay trailer:

The game only has a menu translation as of now. If I'm mistaken, please post a link to this other project or whatever source you got that information from. Thanks.

I really need more to go on than "It already exists". A google search turned up absolutely nothing.

I get the feeling either:
1. English isn't your native tongue?
2. You did not read my first post thoroughly?

Literally my opening line:

Hello, my small team has been working on a translation project for UPPERS! An over the top, flashy beat-em-up. The hacker on the team actually started the project alone as a rough menu translation only. I then contacted him about bringing translators on board and making a full translation of the game. We have one translator already and are looking for more, so what better place to ask than the community that I see a ton of translation projects hosted on?

It's all good. We all have derp days. :D

No offence meant @Sora Takihawa. I figured we were just having a bit of miscommunication. :)

Yes, this IS indeed Froid's project. I approached and asked him to make it a complete translation. He said that translators would be needed, as his patch is just a rough menu translation. I then took it upon myself to seek out translators in the shadows. We have one on the team and need more. Keeping the project quiet isn't helping the situation, so we as a whole, decided to make the project public and openly ask for help. I hope that clears things up a bit. :D

Yeah, it definitely has a feel to it that I would think a western release would be a good fit. But, that's why this project exists. Because it DOES deserve a western release. So if the game devs won't do it, WE WILL! XD

Just to clarify, NO hacking knowledge is required, just translation and simply inserting the text into a spreadsheet. Froid has all the hacking and reinsertion on lock.

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
