if you can find a legit download for the English translated version then I'm in. I've had no luck finding it fully patched. All the links seem to be dead.

is it the English version that doesn't require you to do all kinds of crazy shiz to install it on a US computer?

Crazy shit?

Typically you may just need to set your locale to Japan. And you can leave it there because pretty much everything else will stay in English anyway.

according to JT, it wasn't so simple with this game.
This game has been posted about on Racketboy in the past, but at the time it wouldn't just run on an English system. You had to add all this stuff to get your PC to understand the Japanese text. I remember I tried to do it awhile back and I put all this language changing software on my PC and for a brief second I almost got stuck in a Japanese setting where I couldn't read anything and I was scared I wouldn't be able to figure out how to turn it back to English. Thankfully, someone else has now taken care of that now and released this US Patched version of the game so you can just unpack the files and run the game without any worries.

Interesting. I've never heard of a Japanese game like that. I'll try installing whatever is in that link when I get to work. Will let you know how things turn out.

Well, the link is to a page, not to a download, so go to the page, poke around, and maybe download it and give it a try. If it doesn't work it's not what you want.

I downloaded it but I haven't installed or dealt with it, yet. Since it has Netplay, it could be fun to play here on the forums.

Yep! Definitely. Provided I get a decent connection. I've had bad luck with BlazBlue, but I have not had any issues with Diablo III or when I've played another doujin fighter online.
