This is more or less what I was expecting before going into this – the English version is a punched-up version of the Japanese text, but in terms of content it’s about the same. Naomi: ……You could show at least a little embarrassment, you know. (Seiko walks off the screen for a few seconds) Seiko: Thanks! I’m gonna go butter up my pooper with it real good! Seiko: Thanks! Okay, I’m gonna go apply a bunch real quick! Naomi: Well, I’ve got some antibacterial cream, if that’ll work… Naomi: Well, I do have some ordinary ointment. My butt’s been drier ‘n a desert since we got here. Seiko: Yeah…… My butt’s kinda been giving me some trouble lately, you see… Seiko: Do you have any of that ass medicine on you, by any chance? You know, the smeary stuff? Seiko: Do you have any butt medicine? The kind you gotta rub on. So, for reference, here’s the full scene in both versions of the game:Īnd here’s a look at the text, side-by-side for easy comparison: Japanese Version (basic translation) Since I’m not familiar with the game it took a little detective work to find this line of text in both versions of the game, but luckily it wasn’t too bad – it sounds like this “butter up my pooper” line made a big splash with English fans, which helped a bit. I would definitely say that it and it’s sequel are known for their incredible localization though – especially since it’s a horror game with minimal visual representation. Mind you there is 100% voice acting in the game, but my Japanese isn’t really good enough to tell if it’s what the character actually said in the original version. I was just wondering about the localization because while it is grammatically great, and flows really well (while being able to maintain the scary atmosphere the original must have had), some lines just seem to be ad libbed based on the mood rather than what the character says. A total retard.” – From the character Naho later in the game. ”Anyone who takes stuff posted on the net and swallows it wholesale is a fucking dumbass.”I’m gonna butter up my pooper with it real good!” – From the character Seiko during CH1.Here are just some choice quotes from Corpse Party (some profane stuff here): I’ve never played it but it’s always looked like something right up my alley, so this is a good chance for me to finally take a peek at the game! Many moons ago, Steven asked a question about the Corpse Party translation for the PSP.

When the battery is first put on charge, the voltage shoots up quickly. Table 2: Typical charge characteristics of lithium-ionĪdding full saturation at the set voltage boosts the capacity by about 10 percent but adds stress due to high voltage. (See also BU-808: How to Prolong Lithium-based Batteries) T able 2 illustrates the estimated capacities when charged to different voltage thresholds with and without saturation charge. State-of-charge (SoC) at this point is about 85 percent, a level that may be sufficient for many users.Ĭertain industrial chargers set the charge voltage threshold lower on purpose to prolong battery life. “Ready” appears when the battery reaches the voltage threshold at Stage 1. Some lower-cost consumer chargers may use the simplified “charge-and-run” method that charges a lithium-ion battery in one hour or less without going to the Stage 2 saturation charge. Chargers for consumer products go for maximum capacity and cannot be adjusted extended service life is perceived less important. Choosing a lower voltage threshold or eliminating the saturation charge altogether, prolongs battery life but this reduces the runtime. In fact, it is better not to fully charge because a high voltage stresses the battery. Li-ion does not need to be fully charged as is the case with lead acid, nor is it desirable to do so. A high current charge will, however, quickly fill the battery to about 70 percent. With higher current, Stage 1 is shorter but the saturation during Stage 2 will take longer. Although the battery reaches the voltage peak quicker, the saturation charge will take longer accordingly. Increasing the charge current does not hasten the full-charge state by much. Elevated self-discharge might be the cause of this condition. A battery is also considered fully charged if the current levels off and cannot go down further. Discontinue using the battery or charger if the temperature rises more than 10✬ (18✯) under moderate charging speeds.įull charge occurs when the battery reaches the voltage threshold and the current drops to 3 percent of the rated current. This could be due to the protection circuit and/or elevated internal resistance. Some Li-ion packs may experience a temperature rise of about 5✬ (9✯) when reaching full charge. Charge efficiency is about 99 percent and the cell remains cool during charge. Manufacturers of these cells recommend charging at 0.8C or less to prolong battery life however, most Power Cells can take a higher charge C-rate with little stress. The advised charge rate of an Energy Cell is between 0.5C and 1C the complete charge time is about 2–3 hours. In lieu of trickle charge, some chargers apply a topping charge when the voltage drops. Li-ion is fully charged when the current drops to a set level. Full charge is reached when the current decreases to between 3 and 5 percent of the Ah rating.įigure 1: Charge stages of lithium-ion Protection circuits built into the pack do not allow exceeding the set voltage.įigure 1 shows the voltage and current signature as lithium-ion passes through the stages for constant current and topping charge. Boosting the voltage increases capacity, but going beyond specification stresses the battery and compromises safety. Some nickel-based varieties charge to 4.10V/cell high capacity Li-ion may go to 4.30V/cell and higher. Li-ion with the traditional cathode materials of cobalt, nickel, manganese and aluminum typically charge to 4.20V/cell. Li-ion is a “clean” system and only takes what it can absorb. The so-called miracle charger that promises to prolong battery life and gain extra capacity with pulses and other gimmicks does not exist. While lead acid offers some flexibility in terms of voltage cut off, manufacturers of Li-ion cells are very strict on the correct setting because Li-ion cannot accept overcharge. The differences with Li-ion lie in a higher voltage per cell, tighter voltage tolerances and the absence of trickle or float charge at full charge. The Li ion charger is a voltage-limiting device that has similarities to the lead acid system. (See BU-808b: What causes Li-ion to die?) They blame capacity fade on ions getting trapped, but as with all battery systems, internal corrosion and other degenerative effects also known as parasitic reactions on the electrolyte and electrodes till play a role. This claim carries merits but if the scientists were totally right, then the battery would live forever. Battery scientists talk about energies flowing in and out of the battery as part of ion movement between anode and cathode. Charging and discharging batteries is a chemical reaction, but Li-ion is claimed to be the exception. |
