A long long time ago, when I was working on the now defunct Zwei!! project, I discovered it had two special mini-games that become accessible only after certain events are completed. One game is a tetris clone that I don't care too much for, the other is this typing tutor game, referred to by Falcom as "Typing of Ys." Years later, I thought it would be nice to separate this game out of Zwei!! to make it available for everyone after someone brought it up in a messageboard forum I visit. So here you go!
2) Copy it to the default folder "C:Program FilesYs Typing Tutor", overwriting the old one. That's it!

Excellent (and bizarre) work.
NightWolve Aug. 21, 2006, 01:27:38 AM
No, not hosted anymore on this site, and if you are trying to learn Japanese, this isn't the way to do it... Anyway, same as him. I'd be glad to email you v0.60 which is 99% Japanese. (It _was_ a combo Romanji/Kana program to begin with.) Drop your email in another comment or email me.

Any chance of seeing a combo Romaji/kana version of this? I'm personally trying to learn Japanese, and I think that this would be a good way to learn character identification.

I enjoy typing games. Thank you for bringing this to us.
NightWolve Aug. 18, 2006, 02:03:54 PM
Uh, I'll think about it. Don't really feel like adding that right now or ever to be honest... Err, actually, go find version .60 from someone, the first release. That was 99% Japanese, so there you go. After that, I recommend killing yourself for wanting it. ;)
EDITx2: OK, I have it. All 3 MBs for it. Leave your email address and I'll stuff it in your inbox.

Is there any chance of seeing, well, the original, non-patched version released? Is it floating on the site somewhere?

I'm baffled Truly, it's a rare thing. I must say that it's a tremmendous nice work, NW. You, Deuce, and the rest of the crew are the best !
WHY would @XSEEDGames insult me by calling me "Hitler" when I would NEVER call them "Stalinists?" Oh well, I try so hard to be their friend - and maybe someday that will happen! twitter.com/realDona
Just got blocked by @XSEEDGames on Twitter a second ago.. I just wanted to express glee to the jerks for having kept their divisive, poisonous, criminal hands off of the new Ys VIII title & Gurumin, well, they had no choice, NISA poached everything out from under them! Live by the sword, perish by it... It took another ruthless ugly competitor to bring them to justice by taking the Ys series away, that sweet Falcom partnership, which they NEVER deserved!
Psycho Kirsten "omgfloofy" Miller called me a "f@gg0t" on Reddit by proxy with an animated meme! In a recent exchange, she spammed me with this: https://imgur.com/wA Who is Kirsten ? She did work for X.X.XSEED on Ys Celceta and is credited in the Special Thanks section... Don't they get more embarrassing the more you learn ? In the aftermath of the terrorist attack at the Pulse nightclub where 50 people were executed, does dropping "f@gg0t" still fly in so a nonchalant fashion ? Source Link.
Is XSEED [Lame] "Games" waging a "war on women," specifically "little women" ? Do they pander to animated ped0philia-loving perverts ? Man, these headlines write themselves! Hah! Attaboy Tom, thanks for the lulz at least in the midst of all your criminality!
It's been 11 years since I managed a new PC Engine project, but I have indeed returned to the retro console platform I first started the ole fan translation gig with! Finally took the time to mention it here, >> Emerald Dragon <<.
1) Kinda funny, but Ken Berry, Director of Publishing of XSEED Games, did a Facebook block on me some time back... Heh-heh. Guess I should feel honored! That's in addition to Thomas "WyrdWad" Lipschultz of course after I sent him a PM. 2) OK, REALLY LOLOLOL FUNNY, X.X.XSEED Games is under fire by HuffingtonPuffington for what "may be one of the most despicable video games of all time!!!" HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Lipschultz is on the Comments section defending his two-bit, perv, criminal cheat of a company against the author of the blog article to boot, so is even the X.X.XSEED Cock-Flasher, it's a full-on freakshow! More of my thoughts here! Oh lordy, the delicious irony and glee here, I can't contain expressing it!
Ys Typing Tutor Game v0.85
Anyway, same as him. I'd be glad to email you v0.60 which is 99% Japanese. (It _was_ a combo Romanji/Kana program to begin with.) Drop your email in another comment or email me.
