I've had this game for a while, it came with my Japanese N64. I can read a little bit of Japanese but this game is way to Kanji intensive for me to handle.

The direct title is Fuurai no Shiren 2 - Im thinking it's Siren of Fire 2 or something close to that. I heard that it was a hot in Japan for a while... Anyone know anything about this game? is it a rarity?

I don't think the title is supposed to be translated literally. I've never touched a game in the series, although I'd like top lay teh DC version. Shiren I believe is the characters name. Siren would be pronounced Sairen, if they bothered. Not sure though -- could be the way you stated it.

It's less likely to be "Siren of Fire 2", as "no" is used less to mean "of" and more to signify posession.

My guess is it's Shiren's Fuurai 2. I'm not sure what fuurai is, but it's probably not fire. They have their own word for that. I'd like to be able to tell you, but fuurai is not in my dictionary, which, I admit, is rather limited, and XP sucks and has screwed with my language bar AGAIN, so I can't use a translator. I'll let you know if I come up with anything. If all else fails, I can ask my prof on thurs.

Points up to the part that says, "The title isn't meant to be translated literally"... and also points out that it's ironic that you know that "no" shows possession, yet you don't have one where you should by your avatar. :D

*Points up to the smart ass with bunny ears and explains that he didn't put the "no" in his title because it made it look like crap. Further explains that, if GaijinPunch READ his title he realizes that WiseSalesman is a japanese student, NOT a japanese expert, and felt that Gaijin's first post answered the question inadequately.*

Thanks for the input and then the random flaming session.
