ROM Hack It's a Wonderful World

[rmco2003]

yay for updates

I'm currently working on improving the script editor, and designing a new logo for the game

 

[RyuKakashi]

Ooooo can't wait to see the new logo. will there be 2 separate patches for the logo, for those who prefer that stuff in japanese?

 

[ZAFDeltaForce]

I doubt it. In any case, keep up the good work dude, all the best for this endeavour

 

[HipN]

Holy crap that looks awesome!! Keep up the good work!!!

DO WANT!!!

Thank you! XD I still can't save properly on the Original Script Editor, so I've been just copy and pasting my translations to a .txt document x.x Needless to say, its quite agitating.

 

[Grimalkin]

Anything we, the community, can help with? I'm no translator, but editing and grammar would be something I could help with.

 

[rmco2003]

I'm doing the editing personally, and no there won't be a seperate patch for the Japanese logo, but the patch itself is modular so you can turn off the logo replacement if you want.

 

[Slave]

Is there a ppf patch out for the current progress of translation?

 

[rmco2003]

Not at the moment no, while my translation -can- be helpful in playing the game, it's all pretty much babelfished so it's not really worthy of a release, the screenshots I've given will probably help you out if you're having trouble navigating the menus so far.

I've just tested a new version of my script editor and all of the main script I've translated (excluding menus, items, etc) barely scrapes 1% completeness, so it's gonna take a while, it will be finished though so don't fret.

 

[Saylient_Dreams]

Just tried this game out myself finally, and its probably one of the must have games for me. It's so awesome you guys are translating it. I can't wait for it

. I'm not sure but maybe this link will help. Perhaps as a guide, or perhaps to use? I don't know just wanted to help in someway.

Can't wait for it to be done, take your time though

Thanks again for the work on this

Square Enix will release the US version of It's a Wonderful World for NDS in 2008

Can anyone confirm this? I saw it here: The Magic Box, (Oct 24, 2007).

It's Highly possible that it will be released next year, but thats not going to stop us. We want the ORIGINAL translation, and since the game is HEAVILY influenced by Japan (Shibuya, slang, etc.), It will be slaughtered in the U.S, Probably replacing Japan with "New York" or something similar. Plus, they would remove most of the Dialogue or dub it terribly.

 

[Grimalkin]

Totally with you on that Riku, I hate it when games get slaughtered by Localization and crappy dubbing.

 

[rmco2003]

Yeah, I don't care if this gets released in the US, I'll still finish this project 100%.

I'll start work on the patcher format soon, since I want to get that sorted for a possible menu patch.

...

"The World Ends With You"...?

Could this be it? A sign of a translation? Suspicion on my part and the website that reported on it, but it screamed out to me, like Apollo Justice did when it was first trademarked.

 

[lilfrankie]

That could be it, never played the game but it's sound right..
I also heard that they couldn't use the name It's a Wonderful World in the USA, so it would make sence.

Yeah, they can't use it because it was copyrighted by some movie. The last thing that hinted twoards it was a representitve saying not to call it "It's a Wonderful World" since it was already copyrighted. But Nintendo Power did anyways, and that's one of the other places of continuing assumptions about it, and if that gets changed in their upcoming games list, then it would confirm it. So let's wait a month or two for full disclosure or something. Or tomorrow. Who knows?

 

[tajio]

YES THANKYOU FOR THE TRANSLATION

i've got a friend who MIGHT help he's way to busy subbing anime and the love hina game but i'll ask cos i want to play the game BAD!

I PRAISE GUYS

By the rcom do you live in UK i do too what part i live in northern ireland

AND THANKS FOR THE SUBBING GUYS

 

[rmco2003]

I live in west sussex, england so pretty far from you

I don't really like the localized name for the game, 'It's a Wonderful World' is more of a sarcastic / ironic name, 'The World Ends With You' is more like a cheesy line from a fantasy novel.
