Dragon Quest & Final Fantasy in Itadaki Street Special English translation
ドラゴンクエスト&ファイナルファンタジー in いただきストリート Special
Choppasmith's English patch for the PS2 Itadaki Street Special translates everything needed to play the Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy board game, though the characters' banter stays in Japanese.
What's translated
The patch puts the parts of the game you need in English: the menus, the board and shop screens, the stock trading options and the rest of the text that explains what is happening during a match. The characters' dialogue lines are not translated, so the chatter between turns remains in Japanese, but the game can be played without understanding it. Version 3.7 is the latest update.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese game following the creator's instructions. On the PCSX2 emulator the board can show up as a black shape unless you follow the setup steps in the patch's readme.
