In terms of continuity in the series, the SEGA translation is the more accurate of the two.
Several heroes and villains from prior Shining games either make a cameo appearance or are otherwise referenced in Shining Wisdom: MegaDrive players will recognize Sarah and Kazin, as well as read about Bowie and Zeon, but Genesis players have Parn and Salah, and Puck and Zhaion.
Potato, potahto… some players prefer the more accurate but certainly somewhat foreign names, whilst others prefer the Americanized versions. This forced Working Designs to use facsimiles that were as close as possible without triggering the lawsuit alert. The exact same situation occurred with the Magic Knight Rayearth translation. The European translation is also extremely faithful to the original in terms of the script text, whereas the North American game is far more localized.
Two things here: first, this shows the SEGA translation sticking very closely to the original Japanese text faithful yet arguably bland in places while Working Designs takes their liberties by injecting pop culture deviates from original, yet humorous at times. Shining Wisdom just happens to be the one example on the Saturn where we see both methods, officially.
Same thing in the end, but purists surely bemoan the change. You crazy nincompoop! What in Hades are you trying to prove now?! I mean, honestly! A brief comment to those that hold strong opinions one way or the other on these two translations: ultimately, both are very competent, and both convey the original plot well. It should be noted that Working Designs kept the humor and pop references out of the primary story arc and away from the main characters — in major plot scenes, the translation is appropriately serious, which helps make the humor during lighter scenes more welcome.
And in seriousness, many though not all of the re-namings of characters were wholly appropriate. All rights reserved.
