1 | * NoExportForYou: ''[=SaGa=]'' is fairly good at getting across the pond, but this game never made it at first. It was re-released on the Platform/VirtualConsole in Japan only. A FanTranslation by Aeon Genesis was in the works, but never made it out of DevelopmentHell due to unique technical issues related to the game’s fixed-width font. It finally left Japan with the iOS/Android remaster in 2016, over twenty years after its initial release. |
