Amazing. Smile

It's interesting how most names are the same, but then some will get changed for seemingly little reason - especially the children's names. Out of Will and all his friends, Erik and Lily are the only ones who didn't get changed. Smile

Reading this makes me wish I could understand the whole story as the devs intended.

There really should be a retranslation project or just a database with the text retranslated.

We should make a table/list with this info, with various languages taken from official translations only, i could list the names from the Spanish translation. The same with Terranigma, this would be the only site with that cool geek info Wink Very Happy

I vote that would be a cool/geeky bit of added info to have on the site - this will be the most wonderful source of fun and slightly geeky information on teh interwebs. Cool
