Cho Ren Sha or Cho Ren Sya??

Post by Iaspis »

Hi there,

There is much confusion here. While the dev's site calls it Cho Ren Sha, there's a txt file within the game's folder where is clearly stated somewhere: "Cho Ren Sya is loading".
Which version is correct? Furthermore, does anyone know what it means?
It's a great freeware gem!

Something like "super rapid-fire".

If so, I have to laugh, given there is no auto-fire option in the game. :lol:

i've to agree with that... its just written in a different way, but it reads the same (you read it like Sho Ren Sha, actually).

Having to press 5 times a second for a constant stream is nothing.

Try fighting the first boss of Sky Soldiers that needs 1500 hits to kill and having no autofire. Fun for the whole family!

超連射
The IME accepts either sha or sya but to get the first kanji it should be noted that you need chou ちょう

So, the correct form is Chou Ren Sya (Sha)?

Cho Ren Sha, Cho Ren Sya, Chou Ren Sha all also work. Just Cho Ren Sha is the most used.
