When I got into emulation some twenty years ago, there was kind of time when I was convinced that if people took effort to fan translate Japan-only titles, those must be the best games ever.
Those did include some real great games like Live A Live and Clock Tower on SNes and Wonderswan Color remake of Makai Toushi SaGa (Final Fantasy Legend) and some from my already favorite series like Phantasy Star Gaiden and Shining Force Gaiden 3 on Game Gear.
But I did have bit too much faith on that. Many titles were translated because it was relatively easy to do so or just because they were from some franchise. (I rather liked Ranma ½ RPG and love Tenchi Muyo! RPG, but there are many worse examples.)
