Persona 2: Innocent Sin Translation at 98%

I was shocked to check the Persona 2: Innocent Sin translation blog yesterday and find that the progress of the project jumped from 90.5% to 98%.

This is a happy day indeed for Western gamers. The end is in sight, and we owe it all to Gemini. If you plan on downloading the ROM and playing the game, now is your chance to show support for the last stretch of the process. You can go to the most recent entry in the blog and leave comments to show your support.

Just so you guys know, Gemini isn’t just doing a straight translation, he’s also improving on the game. Here is a quote to give you an idea:

First of all, the Persona status page used a stretched version of the tarot image (82×120 vs original 80×120). I have absolutely no clue why somebody would do that. Not only did it looked bad, but it was also hiding part of the panel on the right. Smile now: no more stretched images for tarots. I’ve also fixed some of the Persona cards which had a couple typos (Emperer and Jugdement).

Gemini believes the game is still about 3-4 weeks away from beta testing (which can be a lengthy process), so we have a bit more of a wait, but it’s good to know that playing Persona 2: Innocent Sin in English will be a reality.
