Hey, an anon said he got the script for Gokinjo Boukentai recently and was going to try hacking the game. Any progress on that?

It's a jap-only Super Famicom RPG comparable to Mother 2 for those not in the know.

I think it was probably some trolling there.

Also I have a strong suspicion this is a bad attempt at viral marketing.

Looks interesting. Hope it ends up happening.

By whom? A game company from 20 years ago?
Some /vr/ anons are trying to get together to translate a game that I'm sure others want to play, you ungrateful shit.

Shouldn't you be working harder on your translation and less on inflating your sense of self-worth? You'll never get hired on by a real localization team with that attitude.

it won't get alot of attention because it isn't earthbound.

No idea bout the game OP, but here's to hoping that some work gets done on it. I too know what it's like to be waiting for a translation.

Who the fuck would market a free fan-translation?

From a Youtube comment:

>quite frankly, this game is a cinch to translate compared to most other SFC exclusives as there is almost no kanji and the game has a systematic approach (Mana usually starts every day the same, etc.). Nearly everything is Hiragana and/or Katakana, and there isn't a massive deal of text for an RPG either. This is because the game deals with Kindergartners, so the dialogue is relatively simple and accessible.

It's pretty quirky and fun. I'd recommend it. I think it captures the feeling of setting off on a adventure on the seas well.

the user "kingmike" here has a script, which he handed off to the anon in question- so i think it's all translated, just not .in-game.

>> No.2176257

>>2175974
I think it was more of them giving the script to a possible translator but never hearing from said translator afterwards never getting a single thing translated.

Forgot to also clarify as I didn't notice at first you mentioned "anon in question" in the post. This more recent anon did get in contact with kingmike the other day from what I understand. So hopefully this anon can get around to translating that giving the script back to kingmike.
