Pocket Fighter English translation
ポケット・ファイター · Poketto Faitā · Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix
LemonGrwab's patch turns the Japanese Saturn release of Pocket Fighter into the Western 'Mini Mix' version it never got, using Capcom's own English scripts.
What's translated
Rather than writing a new script, LemonGrwab reused Capcom's official English text wherever it existed: the story mode introductions, pre-boss scenes and endings plus every win quote come from the American arcade release, and the hints on the character select screen come from the American PlayStation version. Dialogue is shown in the PlayStation version's English font, adapted to the Saturn.
The title screen, ranking screen, character select name plates, the versus and sound test menus, the backup memory warnings and the save device menu shown at boot are also in English.
Western names and graphics
Akuma, Hsien-Ko and Tessa use their Western names. Much of this comes from graphics that were already sitting unused on the Japanese disc, such as the MINI MIX banner under the logo and English name plates, which the patch simply brings back on screen.
Status
Version 1.0 is listed as still in progress; for example, the stage select screen in two-player versus mode is still in Japanese.
Playing it
Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese Saturn disc, following the instructions on LemonGrwab's Romhack Plaza page.
