So technically, a game like Bokura no Dabiouken is not accessible because you obviously have to learn the menus if you are not a Japanese speaker. Also, the story line is completely absent for someone who speaks any language other than Japanese. Yes, there is an English patch, however it is just that, a patch... and does not translate the game fully. Does this mean that is not accessible? I don't mean to be antagonistic, I just feel that this is quite an interesting discussion to have. One can take a fighting game and learn the menus quite quickly, there is no need to write them down if you can menorize even the simplest of structures. And lastly, what big mainstream game developers has ever been known to be reasonable on the accessibility front of things? lol Especially Capcom. Though, Street fighter x tekken will have the character names announced as you scroll over the character selection screen, so you know who you are picking instead of finding out who you picked. ----- Original Message ----- From: "dark" <d...@xgam.org> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> Sent: Monday, February 06, 2012 12:55 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Game accessibility was,Re: FINALLY!
