In general, eSports franchise valuations have varied significantly, with estimated valuation ranges from $2m-$5m in non-major market to upwards of $30m in major markets. We expect valuations to continue to vary widely based on various factors, with roughly three distinct levels.

  • Found in Translation: Evolving Approaches for the Localization of Japanese Video Games
    arts Article Found in Translation: Evolving Approaches for the Localization of Japanese Video Games Carme Mangiron Department of Translation, Interpreting and East Asian Studies, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 08193 Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] Abstract: Japanese video games have entertained players around the world and played an important role in the video game industry since its origins. In order to export Japanese games overseas, they need to be localized, i.e., they need to be technically, linguistically, and culturally adapted for the territories where they will be sold. This article hopes to shed light onto the current localization practices for Japanese games, their reception in North America, and how users’ feedback can con- tribute to fine-tuning localization strategies. After briefly defining what game localization entails, an overview of the localization practices followed by Japanese developers and publishers is provided. Next, the paper presents three brief case studies of the strategies applied to the localization into English of three renowned Japanese video game sagas set in Japan: Persona (1996–present), Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (2005–present), and Yakuza (2005–present). The objective of the paper is to analyze how localization practices for these series have evolved over time by looking at industry perspectives on localization, as well as the target market expectations, in order to examine how the dialogue between industry and consumers occurs. Special attention is given to how players’ feedback impacted on localization practices. A descriptive, participant-oriented, and documentary approach was used to collect information from specialized websites, blogs, and forums regarding localization strategies and the reception of the localized English versions.

AGRADECIMIENTOS Estamos demasiado acostumbrados a leer agradecimientos, incluso a escribirlos, pero pocas veces se agradece de palabra y de corazón, mirando a los ojos. Que esta página sea una mirada a los ojos para quienes aparecen en ella, pues muchos están lejos y a otros no les agradezco lo suficiente su paciencia, experiencia y visión del mundo, cualidades que me han hecho crecer y madurar para convertirme en quien soy ahora y llevarme a realizar el trabajo que aquí se presenta. Gracias a mis padres por darme los medios y la voluntad para seguir un camino que ellos no tuvieron la opción de elegir. De ellos son todos los logros conseguidos (con y sin títulos de por medio).
