Snatcher English translation
スナッチャー
The full English translation of the voiced Sega Saturn Snatcher, with subtitles for the voice acting; the author calls this the definitive version of the game.
What's translated
pepa's project translates all three Japanese CD versions of Snatcher with one shared script, and this is the Saturn patch. It covers every line in all 39 scenes, including the lines only the Saturn has, plus every menu, verb, item and place label. Long lines simply continue on a second page instead of being cut. The voice acting is subtitled from the opening narration to the ending, timed to the voices, with the speaker's portrait and name colour in the box. The keyboard shows Latin letters so the typed puzzles and Gaudi's name search work in English, and the memo pages, diary, disclaimer and opening captions and credits are redrawn.
Names follow the Japanese original so the subtitles match the voice actors. The work started as an AI-assisted translation from the Japanese script; the author then retranslated it at full length and reviewed every line by hand, using the old Sega CD release only for terminology and tone.
Why the Saturn version
The author recommends this port: it shows the pictures the PlayStation version greys out or mosaics, and keeps the scene art at full width.
Playing it
Apply the two patches to your own copy of the Japanese disc following the instructions on the project page. It was tested on MiSTer, in Beetle Saturn and on a real Saturn from a burned disc.
