The game needs to be able to output text to the clipboard. Most Japanese
games can. In some cases it needs to be toggled, but not many, and it's
usually not hard to find, like in Shadow Line you just pick the top option
when the game starts. Then for any text, which includes menues, dialogue,
descriptions of items, etc, the text will be output to the clipboard as it's
displayed in the game. All you need to do then is paste the text into google
translate set up to translate japanese, and it works fine. You will need to
install the Japanese Keyboard and IME, in windows 7 this can be done under
control panel, region and languages, keyboards and languages tab, and click
the add button. Then just check the japanese keyboard and IME and they
should install. Then in the game window, hit alt shift to switch to japanese
and it will translate properly. You may need to set your system locale to
japanese also. Note that this has no actual affect on your keyboard under
most conditions.

hi,
this might sound like a stupid question, but how would you go about
using google translate for game text? I'd love to give some of the
japanese rpgs a try at some point
