I did not know that they were retranslating it. It sorta disappoints me since I was hopping that by getting the WiiWare version I would be supporting both the creator of the game and the translators + programmer who provided the fan translation. Instead it will just be the creator plus these guys who I'm sure are doing a fine job, but don't provide translations for games that missed their sell by date.

Which scene are you referring to? The Tidus and Yuna Laughing Man scene or anything from any Tri-Ace game ever?

I just remembered that Sword of Mana's ending was shittier than FFA's ending. I'll take tree hugging over the power of friendship any day.

At the very least Julius had the fortitude to maintain his "I'm a bad guy" stance even after getting beaten unlike EVERY OTHER antagonist who breaks down and WHINES ABOUT BEING MISUNDERSTOOD (even Dark Lord did this despite his otherwise blatantly evil name).

I pretty much don't care for JRPG females at all. Granted there are exceptions like Alisa, Tina, Lenneth, and maybe a couple others but few of them are worth a damn when they're outside of your main character's reach. Even games that let you choose between a male and female character mostly assume that you chose the male character regardless of your choice (even if it nets some humorous results in the process).

Why do we have two threads on this?

Welp. I'm glad that I got the last ending for Metroid: Zero Mission when I did because my DS Lite is finished. I could try to effect some kind of makeshift repairs, but it's no longer something I would want to take with me lest it's parts should crumble and scatter (and I've got a trip to San Fransisco coming up too). ;_;

Now you can "Ride the Bull" from the comfort and privacy of your own home.

It's supposed to be to Dragon Quest what Etrian Odyssey is to Wizardy which makes this all the more depressing.



They're sorta doing that for games like Cave Story and La-Mulana (though I don't know if there's any compensation going around for the translations, especially since they received fan-translations years ago). Also they're getting buffed up for release on WiiWare rather than just getting a straight port.

At about 1 hour and 25 minutes in I beat Metroid: Zero Mission on Normal mode with 14% of the items.

One more ending to go (and it should be easy as pie).

It does what it says on the tin there chief. Adds Status Effects to your attack. Slap Drain magic on STATK-J and every hit you make will restore your life by a percentage of the damage you deal where the percentage is determined by how many Drains you have equipped. Slap 100 Deaths on STATK and anything without an immunity to Death will always go down like a punk. Pain inflicts Defenseless, Poison, and whatever else it inflicts with each attack.

In reality its not all that great until you start gaining enough spells to have stats to take advantage of this, but it might make your life a little easier until then.

I ended up getting inspired to earn the last remaining endings in Metroid: Zero Mission so that's what I'm doing right now. Currently I'm going for the Normal Mode 15% ending and I've already beaten Ridley and I'm working on getting the Super Missiles. I'm about 30 minutes in right now.

Ifirt either learns it quickly or starts with it, and I think Shiva picks it up later. Str-J is the ability one needs to junction magic to their strength. Siren teaches Status Attack-J which is only useful if you have either 100 Drains or Pains lying around.

Also there is no Silph or Sylph or whatever in FFVIII.

Reply 2000! Whoop!

Now that I've beaten FFTA2's Monopoly game I can start cleaning house on the last of the ability conferring weapons. Also beat the last of the five kings (but it won't be the last that I'll see of them).
