Just chiming in to say that it feels a bit surreal to see this thread. I made the first thread on GBAtemp's NDS Translations well over
ten years ago, still identified as Rod - which is how most people (I mean, honestly,
almost everyone) who knows me call me to this day.
The NDS list of translations came to be because many translations happened so sponteaneously around here and I didn't see a single place that would gather them all. While Romhacking.net was and still is a thing, much stuff happened around here that didn't got a page back there because sometimes would be progress projects or simple menu translations.
@War (can you hear me, girl?) took over the project a few months later and this would happened every once in a while and so on. Life always got in the way but someone was always there to keep the torch on.
It feels funny to see the layout I did back then, and I still think it's kinda cute today. There was even a progress log which is totally the kind of stuff I would do. Back when I first did that thread I wasn't even in university yet, and just, like, last week I finished my major. So much stuff happened in that time.
Sorry if that sounded a bit off-topic - which, undoubtly, it was. Unlike back then, I know no faces around here anymore. Don't know any of you. But I'm sure some of you guys interact all the same, just like we did back in those days. God, I'm old.
Time sure flies. Keep passing on that torch, guys. You're doing good work on preserving the effort of some people who are doing even better.
