Sega Saturn fan translation projects

[Released: 1994] While it was popular in Japan, the Saturn failed to gain a similar market share in North America and Europe against its main competitors. The Saturn's dual-CPU architecture was the source of some difficulty for developers.

Ongoing projects Sega Saturn Patcher
Patches in SSP format are for use with Sega Saturn Patcher. The latest version is included with the Grandia English translation patch.

Unlike original patching methods which generally rely on specific tools and/or disc images, SSPs can be applied to any valid image and can even be used with original game discs. It requires the package labelled .NET Desktop Runtime 5.0.x to be installed from the following link: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/5.0

Instructions on how to use Sega Saturn Patcher can be found at the bottom of this article. Even though the instructions are based around the Bulk Slash English translation patch, the same process applies to all SSP patches.
Notes
[1] Converts Asuka 120% Burning Fest. Limited into an English translated version of Asuka 120% Limit Over.

[2] Can be combined with paul_met's fullscreen hack by following this tutorial.

[3] Everything translated except for the endings.

[4] Everything translated except for ~50% of dialogue in story mode (Victory Road).

[5] Apply the patch to the Trurip dump using xdelta UI.

[6] In various states of completion:
  • Fully translated - Game script
  • Partially translated - User interface and Student Handbook
  • Untranslated - Character name tags and FMVs

[7] Supports 4MB expansion RAM to reduce loading times.

[8] Beta version is exclusive to patrons of SegaXtreme at the "Gear" supporter level and above. Final version will be available for free.

[9] Uses Xseed Games' English dub from Lunar: Silver Star Harmony.

[10] FMVs are untouched so do not have English subtitles.

[11] Requires a Video CD Card but note that it's incompatible with the European VCD card.

[12] Beta version is exclusive to patrons of SHIRO! at the "Official Patron" level and above. Final version will be available for free.

[13] Apply the patch to Falcom Classics Disc 1.

[14] Activates English QTEs when playing the USA version on a Japanese console. Incompatible with the European and Japanese versions of the game.

[15] Activates English mode by default and adds widescreen support. SSP version allows you to apply one or both patches.

[16] Activates English mode by default and keeps red blood; the latter is a notable improvement as enabling English in the EX Options sets the blood to white.
