The purpose of this page is to document the redump standards for handling Titles which need romanization or transliteration.
Generally speaking, discs with non-latin or non-roman titles must go through a process called romanization or transliteration (not translation!) in order to create a main title. The exact method differs by region. Specific regions and examples are listed below:
Japanese
- Japan is by far the most abundant region in redump in terms of discs needing romanization.
- Redump follows something very close to modified hepburn romanization in order to create standardized Main Titles.
- We are working on a detailed guide for this - WIP version here: GUIDE
