imho its because the huge amount of text ... they would need a 256 mbit cart to fit all in one and that would need to change the game insides more than its good to get a quick (?!) release ....

Yeah there is ALOT of text in the game. You would have entirely too much text if you put all the Euro languages in one cart.

OMG! It's true they were going to release the spanish and italian version! but somehow i knew english would also be on the cart... why don't they use that space for another language such as portuguese or dutch??
if anybody wants english, there're another 2 versions with that language
I'm glad i haven't played the english version yet (I was about to, tomorrow i'm going on holidays and i had decided to flash it tomorrow morning. I don't mind playing in english, but i recognize playing in my mother language is neraly always better (unless the translation SUCKS!
)
PS: is anyone able to see my ava? i think my server's out of service

thanks Takeshi, but as I'm leaving tomorrow morning there's no need. I hope within the next 2 weeks the problem is solved and by the day I return everything's ok. I also have more webspaces in other free servers, but i don't feel the need to use them for this (and i'd also need to upload tons of things, which I don't fancy right now
)
anyway, this is what happens when you rely on free spanish servers
also, thanks once more for your offer, Takeshi

Skelv: Ah! Here's the spanish language you wanted.
About the game having alot of text... Well, an entire e-book, with 400 pages, would only take about 5-7 Mbits. I doubt the text quantity is the reason for different releases.
The english is still there, because this release will be released in south europe, which has other languages besides spanish and italian.
Unfortunately the game is already in my flash card and I'm in chapter 13x... I won't start all over again to play it in spanish... Unless the saves are compatible... Humm... Are they?

I started the U version, so are the saves compatible? If not I don't think I'll start it again, but it's good they did not forgot our good old language
They should be compatible. In every GBA game that I've ever tried transferring the save to (Shining Force, for example) it's worked successfully. But try it yourself and tell us, it's not like you have anything to lose.I started the U version, so are the saves compatible?

It takes a long time to translate a game; longer than you might think. And Fire Emblem has a LOT of... how do you say?... Ah yes, words!

Yes after the 11 mission the language come into english, and the normal save game are broken (i must save with the save state), the european version 1574 (English, German & French version) run well and don't have this problems... in brief a terrible dump, i hope the first and the last of gbarl.
I'm sorry for the past reply, i've found how to avoid the language bug.
Simply, don't use the vba 1.72 but the 1.71, with this version we can use the normal save game and after the 11 chapter the language don't change.
The dump is correct, forgive my previous post about gbarl...

Hmm i played the original release in English in which you have to stop Lord Nergal. Despite its text work, I found the game quite cool except for some sad endings and implied violence.
I wonder when its sequel in which you fight the new enemy Zephiel is released.

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version? -
@
Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
