'''Rhythm Heaven Silver''' is an unofficial English translation of ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', so people who could not understand Japanese could play the game easier. The project was started in 2012 and was restarted in 2019. It can be downloaded [https://gbatemp.net/threads/rhythm-tengoku-translation-rhythm-heaven-silver.330147/ here] or [https://github.com/ShaffyYoutube/RhythmTengokuENPatch here]. | '''Rhythm Heaven Silver''' is an unofficial English translation of ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'', so people who could not understand Japanese could play the game easier.

==Translated Names== | ==Translated Names== | ||
Some | Some [[Rhythm Games]] were given new names rather than being directly translated. When ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' was released, most of the games were given different names, which newer versions of ''Rhythm Heaven Silver'' have since adopted. This list is only of the names that differ from the official localizations, including those from before ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' was released. | ||

*After the release of Beta 10a, a Korean fan by the username "WindowsTiger" also began a Korean translation.<ref>https://gbatemp.net/threads/rhythm-tengoku-translation-rhythm-heaven-silver.330147/page-18</ref> | *After the release of Beta 10a, a Korean fan by the username "WindowsTiger" also began a Korean translation.<ref>https://gbatemp.net/threads/rhythm-tengoku-translation-rhythm-heaven-silver.330147/page-18</ref> | ||
*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 them 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 Shiryo 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. | |||
**On that note, some translations seem to be incorrect due to incomplete context, such as [[Bon Dance]]'s description implying it's another Bon Festival where everyone is in high spirits, rather than it being the [[Donpans]] going on the big stage and clapping along to a groovy, modern day version of the song. | |||
