Inazuma Eleven: Remastered Version
A delocalisation hack for Inazuma Eleven
Inazuma Eleven is a Japanese game series based on football (soccer) that has since spawned several other games and other media. Surprising many the first game in the series got a European release a month or so back despite it being a couple of years since the Japanese release but surprising nobody said release has localised a great deal of the game. Undubs are nothing new to DS rom users and hackers but this project went above and beyond that (indeed doing some fairly high grade hacks) to remaster the game to a more fan friendly format (list of changes in spoiler below).
The game itself is an RPG (perhaps not fully fledged RPG but certainly not just "RPG elements") mixed with a stylus driven real time sports/strategy game hybrid (think some of the mario sports games)- a fairly popular genre mashup in Japan but something we rarely see outside it. It probably will not do much for those that dislike football but others are encouraged to give it a spin[/p]

- Names: All 1957 characters in the game, have their original Japanese name.
- Sound: All Voices in story are the JP one, including videos.
- Opening: The opening video is the JP one, and even subtitled with its lyrics (translated)! The "bad" thing is that the JP opening video has hard subs (pasted in the video).
In the opening you will see "Riyo" mentioned a lot, the reason that the word isn't translated, is because doesn't have a proper translation of that word.
- Movies: Nearly all movies are the same as the EUR version, except the opening and video Nº4 (Gouenji's Kick), because both videos are a bit censored in EUR.
We are sorry about japanese text inside the subtitle, but we cannot put off that, because the Japanese texts are hard subbed.
- ROM ID: Unlike other roms hacks and translations, this patch uses the SAME ID as the original game have! This mean that you don't need a new fix for your flashcards and you can use cheats, without editing their ID or adding another one. In resume, if the original ENG version works fine, with this patch automatically will work fine too.
- Another changes: Here is a list of little changes to make things match of what we changed:
. In map: Original named "Mark's House", now you will see "Endou's Home" when you choose where you want to go.
. In the upper left frame: When you enter to the house of the protagonist, you will see "Endou's Home" instead "Mark's House". The reason that I used Home instead House is because arm9 need to use the same quantity of letters as the original, or the thing doesn't work.
Other 2 texts are changed: Dark's Office -> Reiji's Lairs | Nelly's servant -> Natsumi's aides
. Cutscene: In the cutscene where Endou shows Aki in the Tower his "Daisuke's SecretSkill Book", now the image shows Daisuke, instead Dave.
. Tutorial images: All tutorial images that have names involved, are fixed with the JP names. For example you will see Gouenji instead Axel.
. Battle Script: Edited to match all characters named in this.
. General Script: Edited to match all characters named in this.
. Blog: Also edited, both answers and responses.
. Items: Some items were renamed, but only to match name changes (like Sonny's notes -> Souichirou's notes).
. Movie View: Only changes in names of characters.
. Sounds: Other voices, like "Inazuma Eleven!" at opening menu, when the "Goal!" voice appears and other minor voices, are in Japanese.
- We have two great bonus content: When you beat the game, you can talk with Souichirou Raimon to fight
against Prestige Teams, that are special teams of Inazuma Eleven 1.
Well, we change two Prestige Teams (that nobody will remember) with 2 special teams!
Both teams originally aren't in Inazuma Eleven 1 JP, so, enjoy it!
