[Orochi Makkusu-san]

Yo!

i was planning to buy a japanese NGP
with the japanese versions of some
games like Card Fighter Clash,
KOF R-1, KOF R-2, KOF Battle de Paradise
Gal Fighters, SNK vs. CAPCOM, Metal Slug
1 n 2.
Now i have the quastion if i can switch
the language of these games into english,
having a japanese NGP, ´cause i barely
understand japanese...
but i don´t want to missunderstand the story
and so on....
can someone help me saying which of
these games are playable in english?
Thanks!

I know somewhere there's a list of games that tells you which games have dual language support, but don't know where it went. Maybe the master list on the splash page of Neo-Geo.com has it. But, anyways, here goes:
Japanese NGP also comes with the Japanese/English internal settings that can be switched when there is no cartridge in the slot.
Games that have been programmed with both Japanese and English:
King of Fighters R-1
King of Fighters R-2
SNK Vs. Capcom Match of the Millennium
Metal Slug 1st Mission
Metal Slug 2nd Mission

Games that have been programmed with either only Japanese or only English:
King of Fighters Battle de Paradise
SNK Vs. Capcom Card Fighter's Clash (SNK or Capcom versions)
Gals Fighters

Hope that helps.

By the way, where are you gettings these Japanese versions? If you can provide me a hot tip through PM that would be great.

Well.. i will hope
to find them in Japan....
´cause maybe i´m
staying some days there..
but it isn´t certain...

thanks again!

Are Metal Slug 1 Jap and Metal Slug 2 Jap switchable in english? Are you sure? Anyone can confirm it?

I was always thinking that Jap versions of MS were only Jap!

Maybe I will stop looking for English ones ...

I can confirm it, I have the Japanese Best Collection version of Metal Slug 2nd Mission, and yes it does switch to English. Translation is also actually fairly decent, less than the usual amount of Enrish fare you see in Japanese titles localized into English.

Can't be absolutely certain about Metal Slug 1st Mission, but most accounts have confirmed that the Japanese ones will also play in English. It's also a lot easier to get by without the English since they only occur when you talk on the intercom in the beginning and when you finish the game, as well as for the name of the stages.

Yes, MS1 JAP will play in English... I had some a while back and I had to check before I sold them ;-)

Yay!! Thankyou very much! <img src="graemlins/multi.gif" border="0" alt="[Multi Color Bouncey]" />
I have spent a lot of time searching a Metal Slug 2nd Mission English cart, (I want to know what hostages say!) and now you say that Jap one can be put in English.

What a stupid I am! <img src="graemlins/eek2.gif" border="0" alt="[Eek 2]" /> <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[LOL]" />

OK! Now I can go and pick up one Jap copy! Cool

<edit> PD: BTW, take a look at my Cool Cool Jam topic, I have some trouble with the game.
