New retranslation of Puyo Puyo Fever (GBA) by Tasos500 makes cutscenes more faithful to the original Japanese script.




Quote
This is a retranslation of the main script of Puyo Puyo Fever for the GBA. The patch currently only supports the Japanese version, and specifically changes the English cutscene text to be more faithful to the original Japanese script.
This also changes the title cards for most characters, in order to use the more modern localizations of their names, such as Raffina instead of Raffine!

For the current fiscal year ending in March 2023, Sega plans the global simultaneous launch and multi-platform support for 12 new non-mobile games, which are expected to sell 12 million units (it's worth mentioning that the English version of the announcement includes a typo and reports 1.2 million units. The Japanese version has the correct figure).
According to the company, the conversion of its current IPs into global IPs is progressing and the growth strategy is moving to the next stage.
The core factors in that strategy going forward are treating its IP pool as a treasure island and reviving and scaling globally recognized IPs by reforming them to fit modern demand.
We also hear more about the acquisition of Rovio, which Sega hopes will change its mobile footprint from 12% overseas and 88% in Japan to 45% overseas and 55% in Japan.
