If you could have one Japanese text Neo Geo game (like the Quiz games, Mahjong, Samurai Spirits RPG CD etc) translated into English, which one would it be? I'm gonna make a suprising choice and say Magical Drop 3.
What's that I hear you say? Magical Drop 3 is in English??? That's right, but have you seen how bad the English version is compared to the Japanese version? If you have the means to do it, try changing Magical Drop 3 into Japanese mode, and you'll see the difference - more story, each character has their own ending, better and more varied voiceovers... and more.
2nd choice would be Samurai Spirits RPG - I've wanted to play this game for a long time, although I'm trying to learn Japanese at the minute so maybe I'll be able to play it eventually anyway
Some talented peeps seriosuly need to make an effort at translating these games again - I know someone was looking at SSRPG a while back, but nothing has happened in a while. Maybe when my Japanese gets good enough (will probably be a while), I'll have a go at it
