Yomawari Midnight Shadows release today, in shocking twist putting Nippon Ichi Europe in charge resulted in something not fucked up by localisation

Astounding!

Great game though. Has a lot of elements that make it the first true survival horror game in ages. Not action horror but the real deal. The tagline is 'The Dark is no place to be Alone' in a nod to the jiji of the series and before it opens it has its own unique take on the 'this game contains explicit scenes of violence and gore' bit from RE/SH.

Didn't play too much as its early morning and i want to play it late at night but so far its clearly not the tiny little vita darling the original was and the PS4/PC sequel is a bigger more ambitious affair that takes everything great from the original and makes it better.

If Yomawari was Resident Evil Yomawari Midnight shadows is Resident Evil 2. Get on this shit if you love Survival Horror.

You've seen US vs EU covers, did you think that wouldn't apply to on disc content too? Some of your US zelda stuff has been monstrously cucked compared to the eu versions.

and its comfy-creepy. Like corpse party. The idea is 'kids alone in the suburb at night' and in the original at first the monsters could have been a little girls wild imagination while scared'. But now shits got real.

There is no Nippon Ichi Europe. NISA has branched to Europe with NISA Europe, which only takes care of distribution; there are no two localisation studios.

If you check their store, NISA is always listed as the publisher.

They do have different translation teams. Unless you think they have an in house US german, spanish, italian and french translation team since most EU games come with up to 6 language options which is why US and EU get different translation houses to begin with.

Dunno about female protag though. I usually prefer manlier games, or when female protags are fanservice-y. I can't actually remember the last time I've played a game where a female was the MC.

Well the idea -in the original at least- was part of the scares came from the idea that the character was a weak little kid. You wont be punching a boulder into a volcano with roid rage.

>>13677311

Originally Nippon Ichi did its EU translations and dubbing in Toronto due to high number of french and spanish speakers but as germany and italys weeb markets grew they moved over to europe but still use the UK company Reef Entertainment for printing the copies. Mine came in a purple box that says "NIS Europe Online store" the only reason i can assume the box art says america is sheer laziness on the cover printers part.

Even if that were to be true in a general sense, it is not the case for the product in question (https://store.nisaeurope.com/products/yomawari-night-alone-htol-niq-the-firefly-diary-psvita-standard-edition).

The only language option is English, and the publisher is noted as NIS America. It appears that no additonal translation effort has been made to provide support for the languages you just listed.

This makes beyond no sense. They suck up to all the worst ones. I didn't say there weren't any bad ones either; I just generally don't like games where they're the protagonist.

I made a mistake, this is the right one:

https://store.nisaeurope.com/collections/frontpage-clean/products/yomawari-midnight-shadows-limited-edition-ps-vita

While you can select a different language for the product, it doesn't change the "Language Text" or the "Publisher" fields. Still, that might be an error on the website's part.

However, there is no information about a EU-specific translation effort. Do you have a definite source?

Thats not the same game. Yomawari Night Alone was the Vita game from 2 years ago. Yomawari Midnight Shadows came out this week and when ordering it theres multilingual, english (aka brexit edition), US english, Japanese and Korean.

I dont know what else you expect then. It is extremely common for EU to have different translation teams. Maybe thats not common knowledge in murrca but thats how translation works. We dont even spell things the fucking same why would we use American translations to begin with?

They usually just don't appeal to me as main characters anon. They're usually better working alongside the protagonist as a main character (like in Chrono Trigger) or a billion other games.

There's a few I plan on playing despite that though, because of how hopeful I am that they'll be good; Order of Ecclesia and the new Igavania that's coming out.

Oh and whatever Hollow Knight's expansion will be with Hornet.

I'm remembering now why I actually usually don't really trust games with female protes though; the last one I remember playing was Heart of the Swarm

How do those Nips even have the money to keep two gaijin subsidiary companies up? I've checked now and their games rarely sell more than 100k unless they're Disgaea, doesn't seem enough at a glance. Unless they do the typical shit of "buy a run-down hovel/a room, pretend it's your office so you can sell physical in EU comfortably while nobody actually is there", but how would they have a translation team then? Unless it costs way less for them to make games, translate and publish than I think, it's also possible.

Lots of games have multiple english versions. I'm kind of surprised by the surprise and disbelief of it in this thread. Did American anons always assume we used your translations? like did they think Sonic Colours was Sonic Colors here?

I mean you guys know Nintendo of America and Nintendo of Europe are two different translation houses right?

Nearly every developer has at least 3 different english translations. American english, Real English and Aus/NZ pig english.

Do American anons actually think its JUST NISA that fucks them over? Do they not know its bad across the board for them?

Oh no thats trashed it was literally a purple cardbox box warpped up with tape like the amazon ones. I realise thats not proof but the level of disbelief itself is strange. To my knowledge i've never heard of a EU nippon ichi game shat on for a bad translation like the US ones. I assumed US anons knew different translations were the norm and thats whats strangely at debate here.

is in reference only to Bongistan or if you are saying the EU translation is what we are all getting.

I had heard about that practice with Nintendo and to some extent Sega, but I honestly had no idea it was commonplace. I thought NoA was just shit.


6f582f No.13677495

>>13677473

EU translators have had close ties with japan since the late 1980's when companies like Nintendo wanted to break into the west and formed ties with a lot of early UK and French studios to make ports of their games. The same situation wasn't as friendly in the US due to competition from companies like Atari that put a lot of red tape roadblocks to hold back competition. This means for like 30 years we have had translation houses with more direct contact with the original creators while the US were more distant. In a few cases like Square Enix they would often give US translators a script but not the actual game and they had to guess what was going on on the screen while UK got carts and reverse engineered them form the era of the PC-88 onwards.

We have always had different translations for the most part but more often than not you get ours, occasionally we get yours and this means less direct translations and removal of dialogue and replacements designed to be close in tone or simple unconnected to the original work at all.

Which i think happened with Ys VIII. It was so bad it took lines like "we have to save here, but i'm afraid" and replaced it with "im so scared my bum made a poopy in my pants" and it was so bad the devs said they were ashamed and they hired a new studio to do a clean translation.

American anons basically get shafted with translation of japanese games. Honestly i thought you all knew and accepted it hence the whole weeb 'muh superior original work' meme.


327889 No.13677528

>>13677495

I don't mean to speak for all weebs. I just never knew the extent of it.

So for this particular game, are you saying that EU handled the translation everyone is getting, though?


6f582f No.13677549

>>13677528

it looks like it depends on which place you get it from, its possible theres a US translation but usually if theres an aus/nz version they do the same 'english english' for both regions. otherwise it would say 'us english' because with nippon ichi each regions special editions are slightly different so its super common for people to import regions besides their own because they prefer a different edition of it.

For example this is the JP version, and in some regions there just isnt a Vita version at all.
