An English translation patch for Rockman EXE: Operate Shooting Star is once again in the works. There have been a few attempts over the years, but hopefully this is the one.
Spearheaded by members of The Rockman EXE Zone, the goal of the project is to translate the new, exclusive Operate Shooting Star content: the Star Force scenario, the multiplayer Star Colosseum and new Battle Chips. Text from the original Mega Man Battle Network 1 script will be ported over, too. The team also wants to fix typos and inconsistencies in the original game's translation.
As of this writing, the game's main scenario is done and fully translated. The Star Force scenario has been translated and is currently being edited. The Star Colosseum and various menus and graphics are "mostly done". So, really, it sounds like this patch isn't too far off from distribution. Fingers crossed! It's been a long time coming.

While I think overall OSS is somewhat meh for an "enhanced" BN1 port, I am a bit excited to be able to play it in English finally. The game itself is still fun, just wish there was a way to revert the music back to sound more similar to the GBA version.
ReplyDeleteI would love to get a cart version with the translation so i can play it on my ds in english
ReplyDeleteThis will be a nice addition
ReplyDeleteto bad nothing more came off this extra stuff for the bn series would have loved to see it make it to the final netwrok game
I've been waiting for this for years.
ReplyDeletePretty sure you can already play the game in English. It's called Mega Man Battle Network. :P
ReplyDeletePlease don't be that guy. Because of people like you we never got to see a translation of this.
DeleteThe dude will probably quit half way through like the last 6 did
ReplyDeleteConsidering it's almost done I doubt they would just quit. And if they did they would most likely release the unfinished patch since the text itself seems to be done.
DeleteThis one is more than half way done though.
Deletewill it also have fan made English voice clips
ReplyDeleteIs the voice acting dubbed as well?
ReplyDeleteProbably not, unless they re-use lines from BN5DS and SF3.
