Super Robot Taisen Alpha English translation

スーパーロボット大戦α · Super Robot Wars Alpha

The first complete English patch for the PlayStation crossover that started Banpresto's Alpha line, with every intermission scene, map line and battle quote translated.

What's translated

All intermission scenes, map dialogue, battle quotes and defeat lines are in English, along with the names of pilots, units and weapons, the menus and the graphical text. A variable-width font keeps the long English lines readable, and a glossary of more than 1,700 terms keeps names consistent across the series' many shows. The game runs in English from the title screen through the battle animations.

Recent fixes

Version 1.00 brought back the letter-by-letter typing of story scenes with the characters' animated faces, and fixed a range of spelling, overlap and layout problems reported by players. Version 1.01 corrects more names (Tyutti, Lord Feilord, Yang-Long and others), translates two leftover stat labels and fits the spirit list on the pilot screen. Memory card saves from earlier builds keep working.
