If you are ever looking for a mini side project, I'm currently translating the Super Famicom game Donald Duck Mahou No Boushi. This platformer only has about 100 blocks of text (each maybe one to three sentences long). I already have tools to dump and reinsert text along with editing the title screen. Before real-life reared it's ugly head, I was working on adding support for a variable width font.
Are you interested in anime VNs? The project of the Code Geass Lost Colors for PSP got stalled after two routes and never was properly hacked, which is quite a shame. And what about Time Travelers?

At this point any help would be appreciated. Plus there's already a localization team (which I'm part of) there to, in part, know stuff about Digimon. We just can't localize anything that isn't translated and that's why we need a translator so that what is translated can be perfected and relevant to the franchise.
I think [user]Black-Ice[/user] would be of more help explaining this than me.
That makes sense. You can always take the work of a translator and alter the terminology and such so that it makes sense in the context of the Digimon world. I'm going to take my first look at the script for the game tonight, so we'll see what I can come up with!
God Eater 2 seems playable even in pure japanese, guys like Jayuzman have skill spreadsheets....but the story being translated is gonna be very cool.. Frontier Gate Boost+ also is playable with the online guidelines but won't be bad if it's gonna be translated.... I"LL BET FOR LORD OF APOCALYPSE!!!!!!!!!
How about Growlanser 1 <PSP? I know its not exactly popular but the game got a dedicated following to the point of having an script translation of the PS1 version, i dont know anything about hacking but maybe that would make the project relatively easier?.
How about Langrisser 3 or 5? Those are great SRPGs that could have a nice english patch like L4 did.
If its just for current games then please help the Fate/Extra CCC translation of Persona 2 Eternal Punishment Portable translation.
Any of those would make me happy.

Wow, so many choices! I have a lot more research to do. I've offered my work for a few projects already, but I'm going to have to look into some more of these... Although I do have to say, I definitely don't have the programmer smarts to run a project on my own, I don't think. So if there's any programmers out there who are interested in any games that have been mentioned but don't have teams already working on them, feel free to drop me a PM if you want to pursue a possible collaboration.
Last Ranker does have an almost-complete English translation for items and most story cutscenes and dialogues.
The problem is the insertion (=hacking) part.
Same for SMT Devil Summoner, and Summon Night Hajimari no Ishi.

I may not be able to program (though I'd love to learn) but I can definitely help you out in some other way.
i would suggest Zero no Kiseki, because the west needs more of the awesome falcom rpgs even if the legend of heroes games are beasts regarding the amount of text :/ xseed just announced that trails in the sky sc will be released probably end of this year and trails in the sky 3rd won´t come here at all, so we have to hope, that fans will take care of this too zero and ao no kiseki has still a chance due to its evolution ports, but i won´t bet on it either
my second suggestion is persona 2 eternal punishment ^^ there are other great psp games too, but these are my favorites.. i´m not a big fan of ni no kuni, but i think this will make many people happy too ^^
another game that i would love to see in english is ever 17 on the psp, but there is no project currently in my opinion its the best visual novel (or even the best story i know so far) ever released on pc and it would be awesome to read it on the go ^^
