Could you PLEASE stop making threads like this every 3 weeks or so ? This is getting ridiculous.

One person out of an installed hardware base of 153 million units.... nope. Don't see how that disproves what they said about that in any way, sorry.
This wasn't supposed to disprove anything.

And that being said I actually like to use the PS1 for PS1 games instead of the PS2 because of the unique CD seek noise, that is silent in PS2. I think it really changes the ambiance to hear your games loading ^^

show that only 5% percent of people play old games on new hardware.
It's fun because I use my DS almost exclusively to play GBA games (with the advantage of a better LCD), and I also use my PS2 half of the time for PS1 games (there is no real advantage over a PS1 though).

I can't even change the year 2012 into 2013, because there's no room for the glyph of "3" in the VROM bank :-)
Oh I had a similar problem with Dragon Skill's title screen (my NES homebrew project).
Note that 2013 is the first year since 1987 which does have 4 distinct numbers in it ! And we will only have such years until 2020.... so we are doomed to wait 2020 to release my game and your restranslation :D

Those title screens really does look amazing ! I hope they will be feasible on NES.

Normally I tend not to leave things that would normally go unsaid said but I will here: for all that I said above I have zero patience for anybody that says "but we already have a translation in English so why do I need one for ?".
I do not understand your english here...

Being an American, I was shocked to see how many non-English speakers were playing Suikogaiden Vol. 1 and talking about it in Indonesian/Portugese/Spanish etc.  It honestly didn't occur to me that people whose preferred language isn't English would be interested in a Japanese-to-English translation. 
Why be shocked ?
For us when a game that was japan only (which is totally innaccessible) is translated into english (very accessible language) we are interested, even if english is not our language.

I don't think non-native speakers with subpar english should be catered to. You would be giving them an excuse not to improve their english and screwing out someone with adequate english of better writing.
this pretty much sums it up.

for example, the Alexander O. Smith Vagrant Story and Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney translations, which are written at different levels but appropriate to their respective games.
I remember that I started a PW1 game in enlish. After a few minutes I figured out I had no clues what was happening, so I had to seek for the french translation. It is one of the rare cases where this ever happened to me.

Mighty Final Fight also have 3 selectable palyable characters, and starts in a city stage, but they definitely don't wear black dresses.
Pehaps this was a hack of Mighty Final Fight ?

Man I don't understand your tastes. All those songs that were linked here are just distorted guitar fest which bores me after 2 secs.

The best battle theme ever is Final Fantasy IX's followed by Atelier Iris Etermal Mana's.

PS : Also Lufia 2's battle theme, how could I forget it ? Never played the game, but I love it's battle theme.

ROM Hacking Discussion / Re: nes music exchange
« on: May 20, 2013, 02:46:24 pm »
Those games probably have the same sound engine.
You should locate pointers to musical tracks in both games, and then you might be able to exchange it without completely reverse engineer the sound engine itself.

A good way to do so is to play the NSF as a stand alone in an emulator that supports memory viewing. Then you can see which areas of RAM the sound engine uses. That's a great start.
Now, it is common to see some numbers in zero page increasing slowly. If you can see them increase at the pace of the music, then you got your sound pointer locations. Typically it will be 4 16-bit pointers (one for each channel) but this is not necessary the case.

Finally, you can set a breakpoint on writing those pointers, and start the game. You should figure how they are initialized, and trap the "play music" initialisation routine.

You may also know the "play music" initialisation routine's address by simply looking at the NSF address. Then by reverse engineering it (just the init routine, not the playback one), you can know from where the pointers are loaded.

Actually the "Restart from level 1" mechanism worked well in DQ3, but that's another story.

Huh ? I'm pretty sure I finished DQ9 and it was a very forgettable game. I'm pretty sure I only ginded towards the final boss a couple of hours, hated doing it but I had to to beat the game honnestly. Other than that it was one of the less grindy DQs I think.

If healing and escape spells are the only spells you use, you're one of the people spamming the fight command. At the very least you should consider using some attack/defense boost spells (or spells that lower the same stats of your enemies).
You are correct, I forgot about those, which are very useful for boss battle. Too bad you need to cast them 2-3 times so they are actually effective, and their effect stops after 3-4 turns already :(

If you just want to hit the accept button over and over and not put strategy into the battle system in the game you're playing, that's your fault. Far too many people complain of grinding but do little more than hit accept repeatedly on the default option (fight) rather than employing tactics to shorten battle time.
So, in Dragon Quest typically using spells misses, or is less efficient that physical attacks AND wastes lots of MP. And I should be blamed for using only Fight and not use Spells when they are pure crap ? I'd rather blame Enix for not including efficient spells in their games (healing and escape being the only really useful spells of all DQ games, ever).

I think you fail to see that different persons have individual tastes and interests. Not everybody's like you, dude. I'd wager that there are millions of people who think what you're doing every day is boring.
Sure but there are still common points between different people. For example I doubt anyone think that squashing his head in a chainsaw is fun.
