Abaddon: Princess of the Decay is one of the few adult games where the male protagonist can romance both female and male characters.

It's a retro horror RPG where a group of friends explore a haunted mansion. It's currently being localized by Fakku.

The male Ace Trainer comes to mind, he' the only other trainer (alongside the aforementioned three others) to have received a sprite change when the game was localized.

If you asked me what my greatest achievement as a localizer was, I would say with 100% confidence it was naming this mascot Sir Loin.

Oh yeah, one other neat piece before I go work out. They localized Dick Dastardly as 「ブラック魔王」(The Black Demon King/Devil/Demon Lord/Archfiend/take your pick)
Anyway whenever a 魔王 shows up in the next story I TL I can claim historical precedence to call him The Dick.

The very first BL title to be localized from Japanese to English is Graduation, a dating sim made in 1998 by Joynac and translated in '99.

The original website is still accessible here: https://t.co/jBvyOb4UzG

If you're interested in Sakura Wars and want to play the older games but don't know Japanese, there are translation guides out there for the four numbered titles that were never localized: https://t.co/oJBtTIxv0e

People are talking about CJ and Flick but have forgotten the flamboyant fashion designer giraffe Grace (AKA Gracie) from Animal Crossing. In the localized versions, Grace is female. In the original version, Grace is male. Honestly that makes more sense. Isn't LGBTQ erasure fun?

Well, it was going to happen in the 90s. Popful Mail was going to be localized as "Sister Sonic," but that was dropped in favor of bringing in the actual game. It's unknown what Sister Sonic would have looked like. The pic on the right is fan art.
