Support NeoGAF

[ShinobiMuramasa]

I've been following the topic over at GBATemp and things are looking good. I don't think there's anyone more qualified than MagiusNecros to manage the project and with him at the helm I'm confident that it'll be accomplished.

Just so you know, that NSRSM guy is me.

I can try project management despite having no experience.

I used to project lead anime fansubs... so if you need any help...

Suggestions are always welcome. As well as support of any kind.

 

[leatherhat]

So without me digging through 20+ pages of posts, where do we stand right now?

 

[Father_Brain]

SE hasn't announced anything for the platform in over a year. Perhaps FFX HD and that Unity ARPG will resurface, but I wouldn't expect much more than that.

Somewhere between not really and sorta kinda. Which may increase to maybe.

Watch the Unity ARPG be a Type 0 overhaul.

MHP offered local multiplayer, an experience that was incredibly well-suited for the Japanese market and only possible on a handheld. What would distinguish the Vita version of FFX HD, other than mere portability?

A quality FF game for the Jp market.

Yeah I know, which is why I'm so confident that things will work out.

I would like to contribute in some way, but my time is very limited with school starting back up and with work. I'm the administrator for the Senran International Academy (it's a fan community for the Senran Kagura series) so that takes up some time, but since I'm capable of translating if you need someone to look over/edit translations I think I could do that.

 

[MagiusNecros]

I'm busy getting all the translated material I have so far in order for this group. Which isn't much.

 

[Takao]

Incentives can also include co-marketing.
But I was referring to FFX HD. SE seems to need a lot of motivation these days. Not to mention, there was a multi-game deal for the PSP with them. I have to wonder if something similar will happen with the Vita.

Given it took Square Enix upwards of three years (!) to deliver some of those PSP games I'm not sure I'd want to look at Vita's weekly sales by the time any of their original games would be out for it. Heck, you can blame Type-0's lack of localization on the game taking three years to release. They had no problem releasing PSP games in North America in late 2010/early 2011

Spoiler

then they got the sales figures for those games.

Considering a port of a PS2 game sky rockrted the PSP they're not exactly going in the wrong direction.

A single player only JRPG HD re-release that's also available on a home console doesn't exactly scream potential for chart topping phenomenon.

 

[MagiusNecros]

Don't think Type 0 for Vita with it's current install base and the conflicts it supposedly has had with Sony make it a viable option honestly.

 

[Toth]

And...here...we...go:

Fan translation proceeding.

I must say that the fan translation team is doing a great job so far. Very organized

 

[MagiusNecros]

I try my best to keep it somewhat organized.

I'm impressed with the way it's been going myself.

Do they have a site to keep up with the progress?

[Kagari]

Nice. Keep up the good work.

 

[DJIzana]

Nice job guys... can't wait to see the final project! =)

 

[Exentryk]

Wow! Must be quite a bit of work. All the best guys!

Is this real life?

 

[May16]

If you guys want help with English voice acting, I have absolutely no experience and will work for very high costs. Just putting that out there.

 

[DJIzana]

I don't know if this helps but you guys DO know the Second CD is done in terms of fan translation, right?

 

[Relaxed Muscle]

Is happening?!

I can't almost believe it...

 

[hateradio]

My first thought: Why not just have New and Load so that Game isn't cut off?

I wasn't really interested in this game, but it's nice that some of you will get to play it.

 

[neptunes]

Doing what SE never could.

 

[gwarm01]

Wow. This gives me hope for the future.

 

[Dunan]

Magius, ten more pages in your inbox! Come and get 'em!

 

[Mzo]

Excellent, looking forward to this. Much, much appreciated.

 

[Labadal]

I guess I'm buying a copy in a not so distant future. Keep up the good work.

 

[Musiol]

Wow, you are the best. Now I can consider to buy japanese version of FF Type-0. Keep it up

 

[Trojita]

lol wut. This is happening?

 

[Seven Force]

But in all seriousness, glad to see progress being made. Great job so far.

It's a work in progress. I believe they've actually already fixed the graphics so they won't get cut off like that.

 

[Viola of the Abyss]

Excellent, very happy to see this. I wish I could help somehow :/

Time to resume those romhacking studies.

Suck it, S-E.

 

[deim0s]

VC3 and now Type-0!? Oh Yeah!!!

 

[Dark Schala]

Damn, it's happening?

Keep it up.

Fans do what Square-Enix-Eidon't. (I'm so so sorry, lol.)

 

[Aru]

How high are the odds that S-E sends a C&D to the fan translation team ?

 

[Kiraly]

None.

 

[Ravage]

Can't believe this is finally happening...

 

[Deleted member 20920]

People have done fan translation of their games before and have not been ordered to C&D. So it should be alright.

Unbelievable.

Keeping my fingers crossed for a Xmas 2013 release of the fan sub.

Very low but not none. They already took down a few fan remakes projects, if I remember correctly.
If they have plans for a Vita version this might be taken down, even if that projects would end up never being realized.

I'm glad to see a rebirth of the fan translation scene, it was a given seeing how many high profile games never got published in English afterall.

 

[Kiraly]

Fan translations can never get taken down, as they do not use any property Square Enix owns. They are distributed just as simple patch files, being made up of only text.

Yeah, the IPS patchers are usually found elsewhere. Cannot imagine Square closing down a project to release a TXT file...

 

[RurouniZel]

Once this one and the VC3 one are released my life will be complete.

... though I've already played VC3.

This gif has been used quite a bit on gaf recently, I think I'll join in:

 

[Redhood]

So quick question about this project. In order to play this one needs rom dump and a hacked console right? How will one manage to play this game on unhacked console say ps vita? Progress looks amazing! good job guys!
