Translations for Inkay
It'd be nice to support all the languages the Wii U supports since that makes us more accessible to Wii U owners everywhere. Excluding debug logs, Inkay has user-visible strings in two places:
- the "Using Pretendo Network" notification (main.cpp, see
get_nintendo_network_message()) - the Aroma plugin config menu (config.cpp, see
get_config_strings())
Languages we'd like:
- [x] Japanese
- [x] English
- [x] French
- [x] German
- [x] Italian
- [x] Spanish
- [x] Simplified Chinese
- [ ] Korean
- [x] Dutch
- [x] Portuguese
- [x] Russian
- [x] Traditional Chinese
At time of writing, here is every translatable string, in English:
Inkay
Network selection
Connect to the Pretendo network
Other settings
Reset Wara Wara Plaza
Press A
Restart to apply
From WiiU menu only
Using Nintendo Network
Using Pretendo Network
Note "Pretendo Network" is a brand and should be translated the same as "Nintendo Network" is - for English and Spanish, that means the word Network isn't translated from English and is kept as a proper noun. YMMV
Feel free to post translations in the comments of this issue if you're not happy adding them to the code yourself!
German:
Inkay
Netzwerkauswahl
Verbinde zum Pretendo Network

Drücke A

Nur vom Wii U-Menü aus
Verbunden mit Nintendo Network
Verbunden mit Pretendo Network
(I hope these translations are fine. I'd say these are correct.)
Edit: Thanks @BlinkingJarl482 for noting this! I updated it :3
Nutze Nintendo Network Nutze Pretendo Network could be better translated with Verbunden mit Nintendo Network Verbunden mit Pretendo Network otherwhise it could be interpreted as use Pretendo/Nintendo Network like telling the Person to use Nintendo/Pretendo Network even tho it isn't the literal translation this way it's more easily understandable to the User this way
Created two pull requests to add the Italian language, added some comments to the main.cpp, as both versions are correct, the commented one is better
May I ask if you take translations for language not present? Like Slovenian or Friulian?

The list is (as far as I know) all the languages supported by the Wii U. If we added more, the user would have to select it themselves, which means they'd have to understand the menu well enough to find the selector, at which point it feels somewhat pointless?
I could be wrong though, this is not an area I have much experience in.
@BlinkingJarl482 For some of the other translations, we decided "Connected" wasn't the right implication to make - since that notification only shows what we'll attempt to use, and we don't know if the connection actually worked yet. I'll keep the original wording for now but I'm open to change it later
Added German in 636354493badd990e2d91502c49eb8889e49bbb6 and b239ae82db1dbdf8d303e9892f899c91766a7d59
