This is an English translation port for the PSP version of Never7. The entire game, along with the TIPS, has been translated, with only a few minor script modifications.

Observing that patches for Ever17 and Remember11 for PSP already exist, and being a fan of Never7, the creator felt a strong need for a similar patch for portable play. This led to the initiation of a project in June of the previous year, with the aim of making the entire series available in English on PSP. Now, the project has come to fruition!

Pros to the PSP version compared to PC

  • Nice backlog, you can replay voices and rewind the game
  • Quick saves, automatically created on every choice and scene
  • Remade video cutscenes, and new opening and ending themes
  • Nicer presentation with cool menus
  • The cool menus include several settings, like volume and text speed
  • Save in Append Stories
  • In-game TIPS
  • The Windows version is really buggy due to its age and nature
  • Play on the go!!

Cons:

  • Low resolution of 480 x 272 pixels (if emulating, it might look bad with the wrong settings)
  • Title screen music is Beginning of Infinity instead of Once more... (Of course though, that song is still in the game)
  • No rainbow text box (hey rainbow-chan is charming... but of course, if you don't like it, this is a pro)
  • Missing the PSX Epilogue

Notes:

  • The CG and Movie menus and ハ tab of TIPS currently crash- If using PPSSPP, you can fix all this by disabling "System -> Fast memory"
  • The PSP screen is 16:9, but while the graphics are zoomed in, they're not actually cropped. Use analog stick up and down to see the rest of the screen if you need
  • The first Append Story in the list is translated. It's an official route, and counts in the playing log
  • The patch is not necessarily perfect. Please report if you find some error I failed to notice, such as misplaced text and crashes not mentioned above

Changelog

v0.2

  • Fix many important script errors

Credits

Credit goes to the original translation of the PC game for most of the text, as well as the open-source PSP patch of Remember11, which has tools and reverse engineering info that were really useful for this.
