I played the JP version, and my friend played the US. The typos are in both. No, they didn’t fix them. I played the JP version, and my friend played the US. The typos are in both.

Yeah, it's unfortunate there are some typos thruout the game, they can really distract from the moment. I wonder why they didn't have a guy to proofread if so much care has gone into the localization. It's not like the Eng. option is an afterthought, it's supposed to be the selling point of the DS remake in Jpn, plus the script will be used in the US version subsequently. Otherwise this would be a perfect copy. Just curious, did the typos get fixed in the US version? The “foolish” thing from Franziska (Mei) is in the Jpn dialogue too, I thought that’s pretty funny..

(Although Fransizka was getting on my nerves with her "Foolish X and your foolish Y..." I just hope they took breaks from all their puncrafting to actually clean up the grammatical errors and typose taht were shotgunned throughout the last game.

But I've only been playing in Jpn, I did play case 1 and a little of 2 again in Eng. since I was curious what's the Eng. translation. The detective's name is "Oshiidake Aiga" (sounding like "I just want some love"), so Luke Atmey was pretty clever. In fact many name puns and in-jokes for the last two games were carried over w/ care, w/o losing the lightheartedness, kudos to the Capcom translation team. Onto case 5 now, so good!
