Captain Tsubasa V: Hasha no Shougou Campione English translation
キャプテン翼V 覇者の称号カンピオーネ · Captain Tsubasa V: Hasha no Shōgō Campione
A complete English and Spanish translation of Tecmo's football RPG for the Super Famicom, both languages in one patched game and switched from a new Options menu.
What's translated
V. Hernandez's PLUS patch translates the story scenes, the commentator and players' lines during matches, every menu and the match display, team, player and technique names, the pre-match meetings and manager's advice, the set-piece tactics screens, name entry and the All Star mode. Player names keep their Japanese romanisation, foreign players use their own countries' spelling, and long messages run onto a new page rather than being cut short. The title subtitle is redrawn as Title of Champion.
What's new
- English and Spanish live in the same game: a new Options entry on the main menu switches between them, and the choice is stored without touching your saves. Spanish is the default.
- A new font with lower case, larger text boxes, wider menu windows and scrolling names where a full name still does not fit.
- No gameplay values were changed; the work is built on an in-progress disassembly of the game.
Version 1.1 fixes the default language on real cartridges and enlarges the button-orders menu. Some lines in timed scenes still move on before they finish printing, which the author plans to address.
