Admit it, you didn’t think we were going to make it, did you?
Well, we did! Yay! I enjoyed reading the comments from people who were upset about us not releasing the patch in June without even telling you why. As it turns out, we didn’t explain why we were delaying the release because we were not delaying the release. As with many things, June ain’t over ’til it’s over. So there you have it.
Please do read the README since it includes the patching instructions. This post will be relatively short since I know most people just want to play the game.
There is always room for improvement when it comes to projects like this. I know that’s a weird thing to say when I’m releasing something that I’m truly proud of, but I genuinely believe that I could spend another year working on this patch and probably make changes constantly. We’re at the point where we’re ready to draw the line and call it finished. That was our real purpose in setting the June deadline. We needed to have one. As much as perfectionists like Kingcom and myself hate to admit it, perfection is not a reasonable goal. We put in thousands of man-hours on this project and we are ready to send it out to the world. So with no further ado, Kingcom and I are proud to present the Tales of Innocence English translation patch.

AWESOME~! Good work guys~! I knew you wouldn’t let us down~!
THANK YOU!!!! I was here since the end of 2008, checking almost everyday for news. I’m very happy!
Congratulations!!!!! Many thanks as with everyone else, I’ve been looking forward to this translation for some time.
(…and perfect timing I finished a long RPG and was looking for another
With my [no exaggeration] 50+ checks a day for the past week, the time has finally come =) Thank you so very very much for this amazing patch. It’s 11:29pm over here in Australia, and I don’t think I’ll be sleeping tonight ^^
THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! no amount of words can express my gratitude, thank you once again!
[...] Head over to Absolute Zero and grab the patch and enjoy the game. No more complaints about lazyness on Kingcom’s account now. Even if you’re not interested in the Tales series, check out the translation just to see the amount of attention to detail and work that went into the patch creation. Expect nothing less from the other projects, we frequently told you they’ll be worth the wait! [...]
Oh my gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! finally its out im soo happy and thankfulll spechless oh gosh!!! thanks thanks thanks!!! Throughhim AND everyone involve!!!! love u guys!!!! oh gosh!!!!!!!
THANK YOU GUYS
Very nice.
I just knew there was a good reason for staying up late tonight! Thanks to Carnivol giving a heads-up at Phantasian Productions.
Time to put Peace Walker on the back burner, methinks. I think this actually marks the first professional-quality fan-localisation (aside from voices but c’est la vie) for a DS game, though people should correct me if I’m wrong about that. Well done, team! <3
Wooow! Good job guys!
Thank you, thank you! I think today will be between me and my DS! =D
@Yetika: I knew I forgot to post the news somewhere! I’m glad Carn had me covered. I hope you enjoy it!

*Bows*
You guys are amazing. I am sure y’all hear it often enough, but it is true.
Now to find a ToI cart…
Been following this project for a while and kept my fingers crossed that you guys wouldn’t lose interest in it.
I’m glad you guys didn’t let all the negativity get you down and just wanted to throw my thanks in for all your hard work on this project. Really looking forward to trying it out
@throughhim413
Sleep function doesn’t seem to be working properly on my DS with this game running. Is this a known bug?
@bmatthews: Do you mean when you close the lid? We had no issues with that. What flashcart are you using? What exactly is happening?
I admit it: I didn’t think you guys would make it. This release has just made my day. Thanks for the 2 years of hard work you guys put into this project.
I’m using an R4i SDHC… when I close the lid the indicator LED blinks probably twice a second, and the audio keeps playing while every time the LED comes back on, skipping. Looks like the game is still running when the lid is closed.
It’s great, it’s amazing that it’s possible to play an excellent Tales game in English! Thank everyone who took part in the translation. Have a nice summer vacation

Uh nevermind, looks like my flash cart was just seated wrong. Everythings working fine now.
Thanks for the great release!
@bmatthews: It must be a problem with either that particular cart or your DS (not closing properly, maybe?). We tested it on various carts, but this is the first I’ve heard of any kind of problem with the sleep mode.
EDIT: Glad to hear it wasn’t an issue.
Congratulations for this realease! It’s have been 2 years of hard and great work guys. I admire your jobs. Thanks, I’ll play now.
