Talk:Trials of Mana

message: I understand that name changes are not always made when a game is come to be known as an old name for so long (ie Mother vs. EarthBound Beginnings). In this case however, with the significance of the localized version renaming the game and the remake doing the same, I feel that it would be best to get in front of it and adjust to what will likely come to be the more common name for a fair few people. Plus, being a Japanese name, it feels like a different situation than Mother. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 22:42, 11 June 2019 (UTC)

replies: text: I disagree- this game has been known, in Japanese and in English, as "Seiken Densetsu 3", for 24 years, with hundreds of sources calling it such- I don't think that a collection release under a different name for 1 day takes precedence over that. --PresN 04:36, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

replies: text: Haha, just for that, I'm going to leave it while posting at WT:VG, instead of moving it back first. --PresN 19:59, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Name change 

message: I guess I'll start a second discussion! I also think that a remake article would be valuable, seeing as how this one is already quite proficient and how drastic a remake it is. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 22:48, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: What should the remake's article title be? Trials of Mana (2020 video game)? Hill Crest's WikiLaser! (BOOM!)  23:49, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: That's what I was thinking, yeah. I'd take a crack at it but I'm a little bogged down by things. If no one else does, I will make sure to check it out when I can. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 01:09, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I like the idea of this as a separate article, especially as the development continues. It could just be put on Trials of Mana when it's created, as it will be the primary topic. ~Maplestrip/Mable (chat) 20:38, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: I dunno if I agree with that. I think it'd be appropriate for ToM to be about the original release, given its significance. If, of course, the article stays with this title. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 20:50, 12 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Early signs are that this article will stay at ToM, so the remake will have the be at something else... based on prior Mana precedent, I think it's likely this remake will be able to support its own article. --PresN 21:07, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

text: That's not a problem; after all, some citations aren't even easily accessible (like magazine citations). - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 17:40, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Trials of Mana remake article 

message: So, with the upcoming Trials of Mana re-release upon us, we'll have to figure out a way to approach the sources which contains the translated quotes and dialogue. Should we use the earlier fan translation or Square Enix's official English translations? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 22:41, 18 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Ideally we should use the official English quotes, since that's what we use in-article for character names and the name of the game itself. --PresN 04:50, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Quotes in sources 

message: The international Collection of Mana release of Trials of Mana was actually localized as a SNES game.  Hidden inside the Switch game's data files is a group of SNES ROM files containing the localized versions of the game.  These localized ROM files will actually run if played on a SNES (using a flash cart, etc.).  In other words, instead of reworking the game into a Switch game then translating that, Square actually localized the SNES ROM then put it into a SNES emulator.  But I can't put this information on the main page, because I don't have a source on it.  -- Myria (talk) 17:09, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: It's hardly relevant, because it's a pretty common practice. Also, the way you wrote the above implies that they didn't do the same for the Japanese version, which they almost certainly did. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ (talk) 05:18, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
