The Mega Drive · Genesis classics you gave up on because you couldn't read them — play them and read them.
The app reads the dialogue as it appears and lays the translation over it, in place. No dictionary in the other hand, no walkthrough on a second screen.
■ ONE CONSOLE, ONE APP — FOCUS ON THE GAME
· TransPlay doesn't cram every console into one app. Each console gets its own, and this one is built for the Mega Drive · Genesis alone.
· The reason is simple: to focus on the one game you're playing. Core, aspect ratio, controller layout, translation area and game packs are all tuned for the Mega Drive · Genesis, with no compromises made for other consoles.
· No other console cores on board, so the app stays light, and your library holds only Mega Drive · Genesis games. Need another console? Get its TransPlay app — one All-Pass unlocks Pro in all 12.
■ TRANSLATION, RIGHT ON THE SCREEN
· Text is recognized where it stands, and the translation covers it — you never leave the game.
· Japanese and English source text into 14 languages.
· Pick how it translates: Basic (free, on your device), On-device AI (Pro, a model you download), or Advanced (Pro, a dedicated server, under a second).
· Set a translation area per game. Mark the dialogue box and HUD numbers stop getting translated.
· Freeze & Translate — when dialogue runs past too fast, hold the frame and read it at your pace.
· 50 game packs — per-title glossaries of names, tone and plot, so translations land close to the original.
