Which translation patch were you most eagerly awaiting?

[yourdemise]

The first translation I remember anticipating was Radical Dreamers. I still remember playing the first release (which was just a short demo) not long after it came out.

growlanser 1 psp english, they doing the ps1 version, when do you guys think psp version gets done?

 

[Raytheon]

Probably gonna take another decade. But here's to hoping they'll also translate the PSP version of Growlanser 1 sooner. It's the definitive version of the game with tons of new stuff.

One that came true: Final Fantasy Type-0 for the psp. I remember being super interested on it because the gameplay looked fun.

One that didn't happen (kinda): Years ago (around 7-9 years maybe?) I remember someone had been working on some Tales of translations for a long time (iirc phantasia x for psp, destiny dc for ps2, and some other games I think?), but for some reason they suddenly dropped all of their projects and disappeared from the internet. At the time I was looking forward to the Destiny DC patch because the game looked cool, so that sucked.
I know it eventually got a fan-translation by a different group of people, I'll have to check it out someday

Currently my most eagerly awaited translation is a proper translation of tengai makyou the apocalypse 4, a man can dream.

Also a translation of tengai makyou manjimaru or tengai makyou 3 would be nice.

snatcher for mega cd but unless the game is also fully uncensored - i ain't interested ( i thought some hacker would have done this by now )

Metal max 4 by far
The latest information I saw said the script was almost ready but so far nothing. Still hyped tho!
(probably one of the worst cover art on 3ds)

Any older Taiko no Tatsujin game

Still waiting for the day when Dragon Quest Monsters 1 & 2 PS1 English translation will get finished.

 

[Iraito]

Nanatsu Kaze no Shima Monogatari for saturn, at this point it's just because it has been a very long time

And also Dragon quest XI for 3DS for the 2D mode

Dragon quest XI for 3DS for the 2D mode

Oh yeah, I have been waiting for this one for so long. The closest one we had is this project here. But alas, progress on this has stalled for a long time now.

3 - Cyber Doll

But I also have a list of my personal 6/10 or better games that never got English releases or ports on other consoles or fan translations and that you can't play without knowing Japanese (I also have a list of games you can more or less play because they have zero or very little Japanese text despite never getting an English release):

the one I was waiting for was Slayer for PC-98 and it´s done and out and im SOOOO happy.
