Is your internet being slowed down by these translations? Are the files being force-transferred to your hard drive? No? Than please tell me how this adversely affects you.

Did I say that it bothers me? I merely want to know why Pokefreaks must play the game with a full story patch when the game is coming out soon.

At first I was tired of translation thread, but now I am tired of these "what's the point of translating HGSS, I'm tired of HGSS translation etc" threads.

You really need to ask that? People like these games a lot, and want to play them as soon as possible. If they have the option to not need to wait until it comes out, they'll take it. Simple as that. Look at how much people freak out when a game isn't dumped the day it comes out.

Pokemon translations are getting stupid now. There's what... 5?

Anything past menu translations is pointless tbh. As long as it's playable

someone seriously needs to start translating Blood of Bahamut cause there still no anouncement of it being relased in an english speaking country

*HIGH FIVE!*

I do agree. The game's pretty good, but the language barrier keeps me from really liking it. Although I doubt anyone who translates Pokemon has enough experience to do a game like BoB.

Because people like me are going to be bored for 7½ months if we wait that offical translation. And if you have problem with that you can still play it all japanese.

There's Bowsers Inside Story, Scribblenauts, Diabolical Box and Kingdom Hearts 385 /2. Bored with all these great games? And...did I fucking say that I can't play it in Japanese. I just wanted to know why POKEFREAKS MUST PLAY THE GAME WHEN IT IS COMING OUT SOON. Guild Mccommunist was right. If I wanted a educated response I should have moved it to the Blog section!

lock up this troll thread Admins!

PEOPLE! unless you're paying these translator, you have no rights to complain. Either do it yourself or stfu.

This is not a troll thread. I have all the right to complain as anybody else does. Maybe I should have worded my question better so idiots won't complain.

I'm sick of everyone saying people either have to like everything or not say anything at all. It's a forum ffs, get over yourselves.

Why can't people just learn Japanese (not very hard to do) or grab a Japanese Dictionary at a local bookstore ($10-$15 investment for the lazy). That would put an end to all these translation topics.

Seems to me theres a handful of people who are butthurt because Blood of Bahamut won't see English, whjile there's like 5 translation projects for Pokemon. Not saying there should be this many, but the wave of "I'm tired of these translations" is getting more tiresome than the "I'm working on a translation" threads.
Also, "Pokefreak"? Really, guys?
There wasn't any of this insulting when the KH translation was goin--oh wait I forgot, liking Kingdom Hearts is cool.

Stop making new Poketranslation projects, and haters, we know you want other games translated. Ask in the requests forum, or do it yourself. Complaining just makes you sound like a puss.

Wow you make it seem like you can learn Japanese in a few weeks, which is definitely not true... If I could learn a language by buying a dictionary, I would have done so long ago. I'm TRYING to learn Japanese, but I don't think many people would have the time AND skill required to learn the language before the English version comes out. Although as a plus, I did notice that Pokemon has no Kanji, which could cut down a LONG period of study.

You just inspired me to learn Japanese. Seriously! Imagine all the games I could play!

Actually learning Japanese isn't that hard, I got going pretty well before I had to stop because I was getting it confused with Spanish (which was more important as I had an exam in it)....that reminds me, I need to continue learning it.

I couldn't agree more. The game is going to get translated anyway, why bother?
There are so many good games that are never going to be translated, why not pick those?
