Translation description

For too long this project was but a legacy of great intention, but thanks to the perseverance of translator Moogie and the inhuman abilities of hacker z80 gaiden, we finally have a complete English patch! Aside from the occasional misused comma, Moogie's translation reads very well, and if anything needed to be trimmed, it sure doesn't look it. The fine script also owes much to z80 gaiden's hacking work, which is clean and pristine and I dare say obscene. It's the first English release of a Shining Force game since 1998, so sit back and enjoy!

The game and translation seem to work well in both MEKAW and Kega Fusion, but not in Dega.

Excellent addition to the seriesOld_gamer2022-01-06Version 070706 fin

For all that wondered what happened after the original Shining Force before the sequel, this gives a good eye and is kinda deep considering it's shorter than the Genesis games, but that does not take anything away from this good title.

The game play is classic Shining Force style that fans are familiar with. I got no problem playing this as it was without any glitches I see and no crashing. The translation is top notch. Seems this title gives us much insight that the original Shining Force 1 did not give us. It's really well written. It's recommended you play this after playing the original Shining Force before part 2 ,though playing part 2 before isn't bad, but if you want to chronologically, play this first.

Graphics are decent for the Game Gear and the music is 8 bit versions of part 2. It works.

It puzzles me why this did not hit North America. Thank goodness for fans that can make this happen. I thank you.

Good translation, but it causes the game to gradually become visibly corrupted if you play for a few hours without resetting.
