[edit] Eggerland 0 notes

I've made a few additions to this page. Notably: "Eggerland 0" is technically a "demo" release to show off what HAL Labs was developing for the Windows platforms in the late-1990s. The game consisted of 30 stages and the "Construct" mode that would appear in the 2000 release of "Revival! Eggerland," which boasted a whopping 194 stages and a similar "Construct" mode, though its version had many more usable terrains and music (I do own a copy of this game and most of the Eggerland games). I listed some info on Construct mode, such as what it does, the files that it generates, and the fact that it has become popular to share them amongst Eggerland communities. Finally, I retitled the section about fixing the known errors as "Known Bugs." If you see anything else you wish to fix/comment on, feel free to do so or contact me! --Yahweh 07:24, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] It shouldn't be "Quest of Lala"...

Despite "Lala" being more proper, "Rara" is used in the title. Wikipedia should use the title name as it is officially used... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 208.101.148.55 (talk) 15:53, 16 December 2006 (UTC).

I agree and since no one has answered your question in the last half a year I changed the title to what you can seen on the screen shoot. I've also translated the List of Japanese Nintendo 64 games, so I do have some experience working with Japanese titles and their translations. Lala isn't a miss translation her name in Japan except for the two "Adventures of Lolo" remakes they got there has always been Rara, just like the Akumajō and Castlevania debate, the names have been moved about a bit and as far as I know only one game ever had Castlevania in it's title for Japan, and the titles after that returned to Akumajō the next game. And just as that happened Roro had his name changed in Japan for two games but after those it was changed back to Roro, with the possible exception of the game boy game, but that seemed to always have his name in Katakana so it'd seem that his name would be Roro in one also.

[edit] Release Dates

I've updated the release information for Revival! Eggerland and this game based on the information on the Eggerland Project page. --Brahman 04:29, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Custom Maps

I also added information on how to load custom maps and play them as if the were the normal game (so that players can play them through and also save their progress). --Brahman 18:21, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mistranslation?

I removed the phrase "mistranslated as Rara" because that is not a mistranslation. "Rara" is actually Lala's name in Japan because of their lack of an "L" in common usage (just as Lolo is referred to as "Roro" and Dr. Light from the Mega Man series is known as Dr. Right in Japan). --Brahman 18:25, 12 April 2007 (UTC)
