Text & Dialogue

This is a sub-page of Proto:Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (GameCube)/Gekkan Nintendo Tentou Demo.

global.txtThe global text file, which is naturally pretty large.

gon_00.txt#

The suggestion to save is not in the demo.

gon_01.txt#

しゅうりとかは ("[hasn't been] repaired or something") was moved to the next line to balance out the text.

gon_03.txt#

Like in the localization, every line of the letter in the demo opens with a quotation mark. This was removed from the final Japanese version.

gon_06.txt#

An command was added.

<p>
<boss>

<p>

<p>
<boss>
Then farewell, you dumbbells!
<k>
<p>

A <p> command was added to each of these messages.

<p>
<boss>
ブワハハハハッ！
<wait 250>
どうだ？　はずかしいだろ！
ざまあみろ！！
<k>
<p>

<boss>
Wheeee hee hee hee hee!
<wait 250>
Just look at yourself!<wait 250> 
How embarrassing for you!
<k>
<p>

This message had a <p> command that was removed.

gon_11.txt#

All of the "You got a Crystal Star" messages are fully centered in the Japanese version. In the demo, however, the one at the end of Chapter 1 is missing the extra line break.

The kanji was removed from ひとびと ("people"). For whatever reason, this particular section of Chapter 1's end-screen summary is missing from the original localization, but the remake restored it.

hei_01.txt#

わたしのことは　しんぱいしないで

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　ピーチより

わたしのことは　しんぱいしないで
<pos 300 60>
ピーチより

And please... Don't worry
about me.
          -Princess Peach-

The demo uses hardcoded spaces in place of a position command. The localization follows suit.

hei_06.txt#

The demo text simply says the fortress itself is just over there.

hei_07.txt#

• The kanji was removed from おもいだした ("remembered").
• Goombella's last line is completely different.

kpa_01.txt#

The demo mistakenly uses plain じゃ ("ja") as Kammy's verbal tic here (it's stylized as ぢゃ in both this game and the previous one).

kpa_07.txt#

The demo doesn't mention the Champ's Belt explicitly in this line... and neither does the localization, for that matter.

mri_01.txt#

<select 0 0 290 60>
<r>話<Rはな>しかけただけ
はぐれたプニ<r>族<Rぞく>がいる
アイ・ラブ・ユー

<select 0 -1 290 60>
<r>話<Rはな>しかけただけ
はぐれたプニ<r>族<Rぞく>がいる
アイ・ラブ・ユー

<select 0 0 0 60>
Just saying "hi."
I lost some Punies.
I love you!

The command's parameters were adjusted. The localization uses different ones.

mri_05.txt#

Demo	Final	English Equivalent
そのあと　シャボンだまに　入はいって ふわふわ　うかんできた　プニ族ぞくを 風かぜで　とばしてやると　いいわよ	そのあと　シャボンだまに　入はいって ふわふわ　うかんできた　プニ族ぞくを 風かぜで　飛とばしてやると　いいわよ	But then they'll come back up in bubbles! And then you can blow them across!

飛ばしてやる ("make [them] fly/[blow] them across") is lacking the kanji.

でもって　これが　３００ポイントの ゴウカ　プレゼントだよ！ もってけ　ドロボーっ！！	でもって　これが　３００ポイントの ゴウカ　プレゼント！ 『きんかい×３』だよ！	Ain't that grand! And that ain't all! Here's your fine 300-point prize, bud! A Gold Bar x 3!
	もってけ　ドロボーっ！！	Translation
		Take it, ya thief!!

The demo doesn't mention the prize by name. The last line is a phrase commonly associated with street vendors, which was left out of the localization.

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Did the remake restore this too?

mri_10.txt#

Demo	Translation
lecture_s_boots_00 『スーパーブーツ』の レクチャーを　うけますか？	Will you listen to the Super Boots lecture?
lecture_s_boots_01 は　い いいえ	Yes No
lecture_s_boots_02 あたらしい　のうりょくの 大事だいじな　せつめいです レクチャーを　うけますか？	This is important information on a new ability. Will you listen to it?
lecture_s_boots_03 は　い いいえ	Yes No

Evidently players were once allowed to skip Toadette's tutorials. These messages were removed from the final version entirely.

lecture_s_boots_04

Demo	Final	English Equivalent
スーパーブーツゲット　おめでとう	スーパーブーツゲット　おめでとう	Congratulations on getting the Super Boots!

To make up for the removal above, "Super Boots" was colored in red here instead. Not so in the (original) localization.

lecture_s_boots_12

Demo	Final	English Equivalent
こういう　ゆかは　 クルリンジャンプで　こわせるのよ	クルリンジャンプは こういう　ゆかを　こわせるのよ	You can smash through spots like this with your Spin Jump.

A slight rephrasing, along the lines of "You can use your Spin Jump to smash through spots like this".

msg_kuri_map

Demo	Final	English Equivalent
プニ族ぞくの　せんぞたちが のこしてきた　宝物たからもの・・・なのかしら？	プニ族ぞくの　せんぞたちが　のこしてきた 宝物たからもの・・・　かしら？	The Punies must've left it... What could it be, you think?

• のこしてきた ("left it") was moved to the previous line to balance out the text.
• The explanatory なの particle was removed from なのかしら ("I wonder [what]").

One of the

command parameters was changed from 1 to -1.

マリオ

サッサと　<r>行<Rい>きましょう
<wait 250>
マリオ

What a total sleaze! <wait 250>Let's

A command was added here...

そして　こちらが　３００ポイントの

そして　こちらが　３００ポイントの

<wait 250>
『きんかい×３』です！

And as if that's not enough
of a reward...<wait 250>this is your
300-point prize!
<k>
A Gold Bar x 3!

• ...And here.
• Like with mri_07.txt, the prize is not mentioned by name.

<p>
それでは　れいのものを

<p>
それでは　れいのものを

things we talked about...
<k>
<o>

A command was added.

nok_01.txt#

Just like in gon_03.txt, both the demo and localization start each line with a quotation mark.

• かいらん ("circulation") was changed to かいらんばん ("circular notice") in the final version.
• The first sentence is lacking the question mark at the end.
