Rondo of Blood English Patch (PSP to TurboGrafx-CD).

[NightWolve]

What the heck, I didn't know about some Playstation remake ? I want !!! What year is that from ? That looks awesome, Dracula X with powered-up PS1 graphics!

[dairugger]

the psx scan? oh, thats the beginning of castlevania sotn. the beginning of the game has a recap of the end of drac x, complete with spruced up grafx.

[NightWolve]

Yeah, durrr, I kept looking at it over and over and then could make out Alucard in the review and was like, oh crap, it's just SOTN. I forgot all about some Dracula X opening though, that threw me off. I own the game, but I only beat it once as I recall.

[dairugger]

heres the others. these were from gamefan who always had the way of making games look freakin awesome on page. i also have others from the snes dracula x if anyones interested. i noticed i accidentally posted a beta pic of castlevania 4, if it bothers anyone ill remove it.

i play it all the time on my pspgo, the revised version on the dracula x chronicles is awesome! i also have some scans from way back when castlevania sotn was called castlevania V, some of them have dark spy photos of the game and wrong info that they thought about the game, about it being a belmont game and alucard was one of other characters you could choose. on another note its sad we never got the port they planned for the sega 32x. but i believe that project turned into another game called castlevania bloodletting which ultimatley turned into castlevania sotn!

thats why im so thankful for this project and the awesome people who made it possible.   i wonder if it would be possible to translate the pc engine version of popful mail and use the audio from the sega cd version. i love that series and both games, even tho the pc engine has extra levels not found in the sega cd so that might be a problem.

If NEC were doing the box art and it came out in the US, that's exactly how it would have looked too.

They'd make sure to make Maria's gender ambiguous.

Haha! Nice! The thread was all serious and then you dropped that one on us. Good call, dude!

There's only one bit of Japanese left in the game, and it's the announcement Death makes when you reach the top of the ship at the end of Stage 5.

"Koko kurasaki niwaiyu kasenou!" (Phonetic, to the best of my memory)

The PSP is "You will go no further!"

Other than that, an immaculate English translation. You even changed the quotes at the player select screen! The end credits don't bother me at all, I do what I always do when watching credits, light a cigarette.

Wait, did I forget to insert that clip!?
Well crap, I could of sworn that I included that. I'll look into this later today and I will have a fix up shortly.

[Spooniest]

Dracula's battle quote:

"Ware ne chikuru..."

Is also still in Japanese.

The PSP is "Give... me... POWER..."

With those two out of the way, all the (spoken) Japanese will be in English.

Hmm, it just sounds like it was progression from the 32X game, & they eventually made the decision to just have Alucard, instead of a plethora of character's.  Unless my eyes decieve me, the only recognizable protaganist in those pics, is Alucard.  I don't see anyone toting a whip
