Let’s discuss the retro classic Boku No Natsuyasumi! Released for PlayStation in June 2000, this charming hidden gem is undeniably retro. What are your thoughts on this charming retro classic from after 1999 (June 2000 to be exact)?

...you know a hugely popular game like Majora's Mask came out in 2000, right? I don't understand, like do you think this is a rule break...? Is the bait that you're illiterate? I don't get it. It's perfectly fine to talk about post-1999 games here on retro consoles, we do it every day.

And the PlayStation launched in 1994.

We only talk about pre-2000 games here, anon. People talking about MM are violating the rules.

Game text is arranged vertically to simulate a japanese diary.
Shit's untranslatable because of that.

Did you read the sticky? The platform has to be pre-2000, not the game. Seethe bitch :)

Unfortunately it would take a lot of effort to translate if it renders text vertically like >>6677947 said. Altering the game to draw the text horizontally is on par with but slightly more work than implementing a variable width font. Then there's still the matter of a variable width font on top of that. That's not to say it'll never get a translation, just that it might be a while longer before someone with the required hacking skills and passion to complete the project comes along.

Universal reminded that a homebrew release in 2140 will be considered to be more retro on this board because you play it by emulating a system from 1999 than a game that came out in 2000 on a system from the year 2000 because this board is a literal joke

Ironically learn Japanese using AJATT\MIA or some shit. Not only will you be able to play cool old games but you also will have boosted your CV and probably increase brain health or some shit.

Then learn something close to your first language to build basic language learning skills and then try to learn it. Besides its not like your trying to learn to write an essay about quantum physics you want to learn to read a game about a childs summer vacation the slang will be the hardest part

Listen here fucker I will detatch my consciousness from my body and hunt you across all seven layers of reality. You don't know it but you just fucked up. I have studied under the tutelage of ancient Indian monks (both Asian and American) who have taught me not only the art of love making via the karma sutra but also the art killing little shits like you with my bare hands.

I like the series as a whole.
The big problem with the first game is that it only works properly when played on the real thing. That's the big problem with pre-rendered stuff. Still, it's a great game.
