Also they haven't done most of the Pixar films yet so Wall-E or The Incredibles. Edit: Also they could do Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers and have a chance to make Ugly Sonic canon to the KH universe.

Amphibia would be cool, but iirc Nomura would prefer not to use the tv shows if possible. A shame, because we could have had a whole game just set in Toontown.

I want to try out scarlet nexus just based on its director's enthusiasm (he's apparently back to working on Tales). He's been tweeting a pic related to the game every day for over three years now https://x.com/shibainu_kenji/status/1699256189224456559

"back working on tales" is an optimistic statement about a series bandai namco has had nothing to say about for three years outside of a throwaway cash grab dlc with less budget behind it than gundam evolution

The Colonel posted:also if you're by any chance thinking of a separate xseed translator who went nuts, that other guy was the rare professional industry translator who actually does have the censorship brainrot and got mad that xseed decided to alter a joke in an akiba's trip spinoff nobody played because there was a sign that said kkk witches and they contacted the devs, and the devs stated they were not aware of the kkk and were fine with this being altered. so the one guy chose to have his name struck from all xseed credits forever afterwards for some reason. nobody pressured him into this he just chose to do it, as A Statement lol Tom "wyrdward" is a fuckin creep

Wrt localizations and nerds deciding they can do better because they checked Google Translate, one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen was that someone took Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia and went localization “purist” with it to the point of making a more literal fan patch for it. In a world where Fire Emblem Fates exists. I’m kinda fascinated how many games with quality localizations got fan patches when, like, actual bad localizations exist, because I know someone made one/is making one for NEO: The World Ends With You too.

also one time i found a review he wrote on gamefaqs for mr. driller g in like 2001 where he complained that the game was too hard. and mr. driller g is pretty hard but. that man did not have any idea how to play mr. driller g. dude was talking like this was the most unbelievably punishing bullshit hard game of the century, the crash bandicoot of dark souls. also the metaphor of calling it a gold-plated turd was some maximum 2000s internet stuff

I often think of the fan translation of Bahamut Lagoon and it seemed honestly pretty great. I think only a few people did that and it came across (just in dialogues explaining how poo poo works) way better than Troubleshooter does

Thinking of Bahamut Lagoon it's quite weird to me that they've not either done a remaster/remake (trials of mana style) of it. SRPG with class advancement and also dragons that you feed/evolve? It seems like it'd be a huge hit, even now. And in checking up into it a new fan translation was released in 2021 by a person who later killed themselves over harassment. Grim.

some of tomato's earlier work has problems but that's mostly cause he was running in the regular 90s/2000s snes fan tl circles, it's not actually a problem with, his work, specifically. the old bahamut lagoon tl is funny cause everything weird about it is explained by the other guy outright stating he just made bullshit up for it instead of trying to stay remotely faithful

I’m kinda fascinated how many games with quality localizations got fan patches when, like, actual bad localizations exist, because I know someone made one/is making one for NEO: The World Ends With You too. I wonder what draws the purist types to Echoes of all games? I had an experience on twitter about a month ago where I was talking about Fire Emblem Echoes and how I really liked one of the early scenes and thought 8-4 did a great job with the writing for a character, and some random people tried to tweet at me saying that 8-4 sucks by showing me random lines from Fire Emblem Echoes with the japanese text, "literal" translation, and then the official text in the EN version. I just blocked them since I didn't feel like wasting any energy explaining to them how I can read Japanese and didn't really give a poo poo what they had to say, but it was a very bizarre interaction. genuinely if anyone's interested in the localization process, I really recommend the third Legends of Localization book about Undertale. It has lots of snippets of production files and emails from 8-4 and Toby Fox talking about how to best translate Undertale to Japanese. If nothing else, it'll make you realize just how many obscure references to old games Toby Fox has in his head

Purists (or, at least that specific subcategory) hate the idea of localization on a fundamental level because they’ve conflated actual legitimately dubious localizations with literally any time someone says something that’s not 1:1 to the original script, and are also very, very stupid because they often just use machine translations. You’ll notice people who are, you know, actually qualified to speak on the matter don’t sound like zealots and actually make reasonable arguments, or just don’t really have the same disdain for official translations that are generally considered really good, and that those purists tend to ignore actually dubious game scripts.

I think for the "furiously site-searching Twitter for '8-4' and replying to everyone who shows up" crazy person the high of outrage comes before any interest in the game. There's probably some viral post about Echos's translation that is easy to copy the caps from and argue with people.
