Metal Slader Glory sources[edit]

Hello there! I hope you're having a good rest from Wikipedia :) Look i have left sources that i have found regarding Metal Slader Glory that i have found so far at the article's talk page. I think with these remaining sources, plus the Famitsu review that was previously not scanned online (https://archive.org/details/famitsu0142/page/38/mode/1up), will lead to Metal Slader Glory becoming a potential GA if you want. Take care and have a nice day :D Roberth Martinez (talk) 17:42, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Translation requests #2[edit]

Hello there Tarkus! I hope you're doing well :) Look, sorry for bothering you right now but i actually plan to do a rewrite for Hyper Duel by Technosoft. I don't know if you have the time but i wanted to ask you what does it say in these two reviews by Saturn Fan and the Japanese Sega Saturn Magazine respectively. If you can also identify the name of the reviewers from each magazine (two by Saturn Fan and three by Sega Saturn Magazine) i would be very grateful. Take care of yourself and happy week :D Roberth Martinez (talk) 01:29, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi KGRAMR, I hope you're doing well. I don't have time to do these translations. I recommend using a phone with Google Translate and holding it up to your screen to translate in real-time. If you want, I can verify the information from the translation is accurate. TarkusAB^talk/contrib 17:53, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TarkusAB:Let me see if i can find the Google Translate program for my phone (which is a Redmi Xiaomi left by my dad) and i'll get back to you as soon as i can. Roberth Martinez (talk) 00:59, 30 May 2024 (UTC

@TarkusAB:OK so, i downloaded and used Google Translate. This is more or less what it gave to me: 1) The names of the two Saturn Fan reviewers are Toshiyuki Nishimura and Yasuhiro Yamaguchi. 2) The names of the three Sega Saturn Magazine reviewers are Atsuko Suzuki, Akashiya Sanman and Ryoichi Kosaka. Are those their real names? (P.S. I also found out via two interviews with Naosuke Arai (1) and (2)) that Hyper Duel was made by ten staff members more or less. If i understand correctly the SSM interview, the arcade version was planned from the design of the game's arcade board (the TEC442-A) and took some time. The Saturn conversion was made in several months out of high demand from players. Is that also right from what i gathered?) Roberth Martinez (talk) 23:48, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I would not trust Google Translate with Japanese names. Kanji can be translated in different ways so unless you can verify through other means, don't bother.
The Saturn Fan interview is about Thunder Force. The only part he talks about Hyper Duel is when he says that they are thinking of porting it over due to player demand.
Yes, it was ten staff (Saturn version), and correct about the arcade board. I'm not seeing anything about development time.

@TarkusAB:For a conversion made by only ten staff members, i will say they did a pretty damn good job upgrading the arcade original. Roberth Martinez (talk) 00:54, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@TarkusAB:Thanks to your helpful advice and this last very important piece of the puzzle (https://web.archive.org/web/20150420080550/http://www.1up.com/features/pleasure-pain?pager.offset=1 - A planned North American release by Working Designs), i can now work on Hyper Duel :D Roberth Martinez (talk) 01:30, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
