Tales of the Tempest hacking

[oddigy]

Hello,

I'm tooling around with Tales of the Tempest, and found that all of the .mes files contained uncompressed Shift-JIS text.

for example:
http://audigy.ath.cx:811/mes/p_house.mes.html (change text encoding to Japanese:Shift-JIS)

Has anyone checked into this?  I don't have a DS flashkit, or I'd get to hackin'

I'm of course holding out hope that TotT will be released in English, but... if there are plans for it, Nintendo/Namco are sure being quiet about it.

(original) thread derailed at first reply...

Anyways, I haven't looked into this game.

The game's title is trademarked with the USPTO, so I kind of half expect it to make it over anyway.
