Tactic Ogre for SNES In English?

[lostchi]

Does anyone knew if Tactics Ogre for SNES was in English or if there is a rom translation patch. I just want to know if its out there. The GBA version was really good and the Tactics Ogre (J) version looks to be almost the same.

I'm pretty sure there's a US version called Ogre Battle or something.

I have Ogre Battle but I haven't played much of it yet. The first five minutes don't look alike though. I'll keep playing and see whats up.

No, Ogre Battle is not the same as tactics ogre. No one fully translated the SNES version, because it was brought over to the US on the playstation. It's to bad too, because its a great game, but I do own an original copy on the PSX.

Thanks for the info Olaf. That is too bad, maybe I'll hunt down the PSX version. Do you or anyones else know of any SNES tactics style games like it? I would really like to be able to play one on my PSP.

Bahamut Lagoon and Front Mission are both "tactics" style games like them. Fire Emblem 4 is similar as well. However they were never brought to America, and need to be translated. Luckily a patch can be found at:

You need to apply the patch using something like SNES Tool. It's not to hard, and many guides can be found online.
