It's insane that so many games on the Saturn and Playstation have been translated and this one still remains elusive! Although recently I noticed that the original English translator started up the project again! He has a page to accept donations but I don't believe I can share the link here.

As somebody who loves BOTH fighting games (SamSho in particular) and RPGs since the 90s when I discovered them as a kid, I would have been absolutely floored at the prospect of playing a SamSho RPG, and I know my friends would have also. What a missed opportunity that SNK never released an English version of this game back then, I really think it would have sold well. That said, I would still love to see them bring us this RPG today and would look forward to playing it if it ever manifests.

Also even though this game wasnt going to get close to Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest, but the facts that (1) this is a fg branching out to the rpg genre, and (2) its a game set in ancient Japan (breaking away from the european fantasy cliche setting that was a very established concept in the early-mid 90s rpgs), makes it automatically a notable title. I think it would have caught some attention if it was translated at the time.

Maybe an official release truly happens. We are currently in an age of gaming that's been looking back at the past a whole lot (maybe too much even). Endless waves of retro rereleases, retro collections, hd remasters or remakes of retro games, etc... That situation has its problems and its ok to criticise, but there are good sides too, like getting less accessible old games or literally getting Japan only old games.

I really hope the revived translation project for this game finally finishes as this gem has been left on Japan for too long and there has been various failed attempts to translate it for so long now that I almost gave up of it ever coming out.There is also that great Slayers RPG for the PS1 that also needs some love.

Il t’apprends comment savoir qu’est ce que un kanji veut dire par apprendre des histoires pour chacun. Quand tu le maîtrises on peut crée des histoires nous mêmes pour des nouveau kanji et les celles qui sont plus avancée. Après ça je suggère lire les shonen manga qui t’apprends les prononciations avec furigana qui est le hiragana et katakana écrit petit au dessus des kanji pour les lire proprement. Aussi jouer des anime ou autres programmes ou on peut les écouter en japonais avec des sous titres en japonais aussi. Un hack pour les apprendre plus vite!

I think all the most famous fgs can be translated to rpg. The thing is just that different battle systems fit each game properly. Like, i think Guilty Gear is a wonderful source for a rpg, like Samurai Shodown, but an action battle system like "Tales Of" suits GG better than SS.

Im glad and excited about the future project, but if you ask me, id rather see a new game with a turn based system. I think its a model with good potential and it particularly fits SS better. And whatever awkwardness may be found in the actual SS rpg, it can be excused by the gaming age when it was made. Like, even Final Fantasy 6 (released a year before SS rpg) had lots of clunkiness if judged by modern standards. But those early-mid 90s rpg making staples were gladly surpassed... like newer games on average not having a random encounter rate as high as the earliest games. So a modern turn based rpg, following the modern standards of the genre, has the potential to deliver a good experience. It really isnt below the action rpg model to me. I dont believe action rpg is an obviously superior model for a franchise like SS.

I never made up my mind about what battle system would be better for a possible new Samsho rpg. Im mostly inclined to turn based system. But not the staple turn based system either way (Dragon Quest, Pokemon, Persona, etc). If its possible to make something more elaborate, where you can choose the strength of the attacks and the special moves, target specific body parts, etc.
