In a seemingly out-of-left-field release, the group TransGen has released a Beta ver.2 of their translation patch for the not-so-well-received Strategy/RPG Namco x Capcom. The patch was a year in development and translates the interface, the story, and other in-game text.
Being a beta, however, TransGen warns that there are still bugs that cause glitches and even the occasional lockup, so be sure to save often. Now we can finally see how the plot attempts to justify Tales of Destiny’s Stahn joining forces with Dino Crisis’ Regina. One can only hope we’ll be so lucky with dedicated fans willing to translate once the huge crossover game Cross Edge is released.
The patch can be found here.
On a similar note, to those who enjoy Namco x Capcom I strongly encourage you to check out Mugen no Frontier: Super Robot Taisen OG Saga for Nintendo DS. While not a Strategy/RPG like Namco x Capcom or a typical Super Robot Taisen game, the combat works in a very similar manner to NxC.

Is this patch 100% translated? Or is there still a lot left to be done? (on top of fixing bugs, etc)
I (obviously) haven’t gone through the whole game, so I can’t vouch for whether or not it’s 100% complete. The Readme file says the following things are on the To Do list:
-Fix all the remaining grammar and bugs (lockups) errors.
-Check the deployment unit lockup, need feedback for this patch version.
Nothing on their site says there is any translation left to do, either, so I think it’d be safe to assume it’s a full piece of work.
Sweet.
hmmm…. very interesting then. though i’ve got 100000 games lined up now, might as well wait for them to 100% this bad-boy before i waste some discs doing it (and playing it)
