At some point, a French translation was released by ShaffySwitcher, and a person known as Firechat, but all physical traces of it seem to be gone except for one video of [[The Clappy Trio 2|Trio Clap Clap]], which gives us a good idea for how the patch looked like<ref name="itDOESexist...">[https://odysee.com/@Shaffy:a/trio-clap-clap-rhythm-paradise-silver:1 "Trio Clap Clap - Rhythm Paradise Silver (Super)" (The Clappy Trio - Rhythm Paradise Silver (Superb)) ~ Shaffy on Odysee]</ref>.

==Translated Names==
==Translated Names==
In early versions of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Silver]]'', some [[Rhythm Games]] were given new names rather than being directly translated. As the translation project started prior to the release of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'', most of the names differed. Newer versions of ''[[Rhythm Heaven Silver]]'' have since adopted the official names. This list is only of the names that differ from the official localization, including those from before ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' was released.

==Trivia==
*In the original game, all the [[Remix]]es used the same description. [[Toss Boys]] and [[Toss Boys 2]] used the same between them as well. ''[[Rhythm Heaven Silver]]'' keeps the original descriptions for [[Remix 1 (GBA)|Remix 1]] and [[Toss Boys]], and gives new ones for the rest. The descriptions also have "(No practice)" or "(NP)" for games that lack a [[Practice]], which weren't marked in the original.
**Notably, the [[Remix]]es and [[Toss Boys 2]] were given new descriptions in [[Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade)|the arcade version]] (and various others were modified), however ''[[Rhythm Heaven Silver]]'' does not take any material from that version.
*Some of the translated text includes new details not found in the original, such as [[Rhythm Shiryō-Shitsu#エアーバッター速報 (Air Batter Report)|エアーバッター速報]] (Air Batter Report), renamed to "Inside Spaceball" here, being an interview conducted by "Ryan Williams, Radio Heaven News, Deep Space", rather than being left ambiguous.
**Many Rhythm Game names also take more creative liberties rather than a direct translation. For instance, [[The Snappy Trio]] was titled "Trio on Tour".
**Text may also be sourced from other places than the original script. For example, [[Karate Man Returns!|Karateka]]'s description is based on the one for [[Karate Man Combos!]] instead of the original<ref>"とんでくるモノをAボタンでパンチ！よくあるゲーム？…かもね。" (Punch flying objects with the A Button! A common game? ...Perhaps.) ~ [[Karate Man Returns!|Karateka]] description, ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]''<br>"This is karate training at its most intense! (Or, at its most unorthodox...)" ~ [[Karate Man Returns!|Karate Man]] description, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Silver]]''<br>"This is karate training at its most intense! Punch the flying objects, and go crazy when a whole mess of them come at you!" ~ [[Karate Man Combos!|Karate Man]] description, ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''</ref>.
*The former lead translator, W hat, dislikes almost all of the official names, with the exception of [[Sick Beats]]<ref>[https://gbatemp.net/threads/rhythm-tengoku-translation-rhythm-heaven-silver.330147/page-19 Rhythm Tengoku Translation - Rhythm Heaven Silver | Page 19 | GBAtemp.net - The Independent Video Game Community]</ref>.
