PS1/2 [REQUEST] English patch for "Dragon Quest Monsters 1 & 2" (PSX)

[lordelan]

http://aerie.wingdreams.net/ is back up so hopefully something will happen soon.

I don't know the reason why they put it up again (without saying anything) but the last "news" there was 4 years ago.
If only those guys would release what they achieved so far so anyone with more time can pick it up.

Yeah it is kinda weird it came back up with no updates since kingcom released something in December of 2020.

These are the best news since almost forever

These are the best news since almost forever

I absolutely f*cking agree. Seriously everytime another Pokémon "inspired game" / clone / mod / new official entry pops up, I'm like
"Why is this franchise so big instead of DQM which was the waaay better GB game back then? And why in the motherf*cking world is Square Enix f*cking around that much with localizing all of their very few DQM games they made?"
Then I always remember how great DQM was on the GBC and that this PSX remake might be the perfect 2D version of it and that my life is such a sad life because there's no english translation for it yet.

Tom made an Update on his twitter about this:

A short while ago, Kingcom told me that he would like to resume hacking Dragon Quest Monsters 1 and 2 at some point early next year.​

Hyyyypppeee!

Wow nice, I loved those games but never knew there was even a PSX version of it.

Looks much better then the old GB / GBC versions.

Sadly they never officially ported the remakes for the DS to the US and or Europe ;(
Even now I think DQM / DQW is much better franchise then Pokemon !

Oh yeeees! Can't wait! Hopefully it'll come to an end this time.

Absolutely agree.
The 3DS games were translated by fans though.
I still prefer the 2D art style. Thus I'm counting on the PSX translation project.

Seems to be offline. Can you post a direct link?

Tom likes to delete all his twitter posts for some reason.
That is why I copied the message into my post.

There is no release yet, but it seems to be planned.

Alright, thanks. Really can't wait!

 

[lordelan]

I hope he's still at it. :/

I hope it comes out this year and I'm sure many others who have been waiting so long for it

I dunno. Haven't heard anything new in ages now.

I have been searching a lot about this and as I have seen there are many insisting on this translation and I hope that it will come out at some point and we can play this gem

I would even create a bounty for this but I don't know on which site I could do so. Bountysource is for Github issues only, sadly.

Just a few days ago I asked tom and he said that he finished the translation and had passed it to kingcom and that he would take care of the script too bad I don't know how to contact him for news or anything but we just have to wait and see when he will do the translation

It's been so long since the translation is expected and neither he nor anyone else has tried to translate this great game. I don't understand what's going on. Wow, it's incredible that people who talk about this leave such a famous game aside.

I'm a little confused now. He finished translation?!
Why would Kingcom need to translate it any "further" then? Or do you mean Kingcom is just testing the translation (aka playthrough)?
Anyway thx for the update and for going after this. At least someone who loves that project as much as me.
