to whomever interested in these series - recently a complete (so they say) chinese translation patch for this game was released
i've tried the first few stages on some characters, everything looks good so far
if you're chinese, like srw games, can't read japanese and wanna know the a3 story (lol. wouldn't be surprised if i'm the only one), here's your chance
p.s. don't pm me about iso or anything. i don't know if posting a link to the patch here is legal though
