This will be a quick update, we just want to show off some new pictures and assure people that we’re still moving right along.

Lots of stuff to mention today! As I mentioned in my last post, I tend to do well with an organized schedule. What I meant was that having an established order helps me to plan my own schedule more effectively, in essence giving me more time to work on projects. That is to say, during [...]

Well, starting tomorrow morning, I will be back in classes in the good ol’ US of A. I don’t expect that it will keep me too much busier, actually I tend to do well with some structure in my life, so I think that translation should proceed at about the same rate it has been. [...]

So, apparently Tales of Vesperia has caused Japanese consumers to buy up EVERY AVAILABLE X-BOX 360 in Japan. Who saw that day coming? Clearly not Microsoft Japan… Gotta love the Tales series love. I’ve already preordered my copy of Tales of Vesperia (the Limited Edition!) for its impending US release. Now I just need to [...]

That’s right, a project to translate 2007′s Nintendo DS title Tales of Innocence is officially under way! The project is a collaboration between myself and KC (whom I met on the Romhacking.net forums). You may know him from his work on some of the portable titles in the Super Robot Wars series (and if you [...]
