Most requested translations + Best place to ask for Language translations and hacks

[phantasy]

Disclaimer- I believe this thread to be acceptable chatter in that I am referring to talented artists who create hacks and translations of roms in ips or other patch file forms and not supplying the roms themselves.

 

I have yet to need much in the way of hacks/translations, but would really like a hacked version of 'Last Battle' for the Sega MegaDrive.  Comparing the Japanese version with extra blood and explosion sprites, I think it is better. I can just play that version, but if the true Japanese translation is a better story, I'm all for it. If it is nearly identical in translation between regions, I suppose someone with the skills could just make a patch with the English text over the Japanese game for a start.

 

I'm sure others know about great games you wish you could play or English games you know had poor translations. I'd love to hear about such games English speakers have missed out on for so long, and hopefully inspire a community of translators to create a new job genre.  Who are the translating leaders of retro games and what tools do they use to hack games?
