Amazing, I'll make a donation here :) finished the game a couple of weeks ago, really loved it, thank you all for your efforts!

Sakura Wars 2 contains a post-game mode called Long Day that contains a bunch of cool bonus content. One of the small extras I enjoyed was the ability to watch flashbacks of certain scenes through the perspective of the heroines. These include rare sprites of Ogami that you don’t see anywhere else.

Here's the excellent Sakura Wars 2, which is newly translated into English for the first time by a team including @noahsteam.bsky.social, and a bit about how it (and Sakura Wars in general) was doomed from the start outside of Japan, given the way Sega of America worked and the Saturn's low sales.

Thanks to everyone that has been submitting issues with the Sakura Wars 2 patch to our Google form. However, we've been having some trouble replicating the bugs that are being reported. If possible, please resubmit your issue and also provide a link to your save file. Thank you.

Finished Sakura Wars 2: Thou Shalt Not Die A perfect sequel in practically every way. They took every aspect of the first game that worked and improved upon it, while also simultaneously making some of the weaker aspects of the first game even better. Absolutely fantastic game. Longish thread:

So overall, Sakura Wars 2 is a quintessential example of a perfect sequel. It's just genuinely such an improvement over the first game in every way and it's a near perfect game in my book honestly. VERY VERY great stuff and I highly recommend both this and the first game!

Also shoutouts to the translation team! They did a DAMN good job on this game that I imagine was a fucking nightmare to program and get functioning in a modded state lmao. There's so much love poured into the translation, dare I say as much as was put into the game by the devs.

you have to repost shit like this, because just talking about it makes you sound like an insane conspiracy theorist parroting lies they read on facebook. Like if I told someone this happened, they'd roll their eyes like I was a freak and it'd damage any credibility I had left. you know? #political

Sakura Wars 2 at Tokyo Game Show in spring 1998.

Did you know we translated/recreated all the original Sakura Wars 2 TV ads, not just this one? You can find a playlist of them here! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Thank you for reaching out and writing this up @wes.readonlymemo.com. For anyone interested in finding out a bit about how the Sakura Wars patches came to be, check this out!

Heey, Sakura Wars 2 got a fan translation out now! And that's when I realized I never actually drawn Orihime before. Or Reni for a very long time so #art

I was recently asked how you transfer your Sakura Wars 1 save to Sakura Wars 2 on an emulator. So here are some detailed instructions if you are playing the game on Mednafen (which is what we primarily used while testing):

SHE'S SPEAKING IN ENGLISH, IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!! 🥹

If you can't tell by the credits, these projects are a ton of work by talented, passionate people. And we're lucky they're willing to put in the time. Chatted with Sakura Wars 2's project lead @noahsteam.bsky.social and others about this last summer, even.

I served as the lead editor on SW2 and it was the most challenging project I've ever been a part of. Translating something of this scale was only possible thanks to all the time and talent each person poured into this patch. So make sure to thank everyone for their awesome work!

The Sakura Wars 2 translation is out!! This project first began almost 4 years ago and now it is finally available for everyone to experience. Sakura Wars is a very special series to me and I'm really excited to see what people think of the game and our work. Hope you enjoy it!

The wait is over! #SakuraWars2 is now playable in both English and Portuguese on the #SegaSaturn! Check out the translated commercials where you can also find links to the download.🧵 @bowloflentils.bsky.social @mattobii.bsky.social @crouchingmouse.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNbi...

Finally played through the first Sakura Wars game. I haven’t played a vn before so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but this was a lot of fun! I can see why it’s had such a following all these years later.

An update on #SakuraWars2. We thought we could finish it this year, but to ensure a polished finished product, we’re doing another play through to catch any remaining issues we might’ve missed. As mentioned in this thread, the game is fully translated and playable though!

Just finished Dragon Force 2. This game is a hidden gem. It was highly addictive. I couldn’t put my phone down. Having RetroArch available on my phone has made this into the ultimate mobile gaming device for me. I think I’ll finely be able to get through by Saturn backlog.

Finally playing through Dragon Force 2 and I’ve gotta say, this game is great! I recall it being mediocre while working on the patch, but it’s just as fun as the original. The only thing holding it back is the music.

"Death feels imminent for 96% of children in Gaza, study finds." And yet the civilised West is doing precisely nothing to bring about a ceasefire as a prelude to saving these hundreds of thousands of children who now live on death row. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/d...

The previous post being my first post on here, I guess I messed something up because it didn’t post the video! So including it here.

#SakuraWars2 has a bunch of different minigames. All of these contain their own set of images and files. The one that’s been the most time consuming to fix up was the “Trump Wars” card game.
