That's accurate, right?

Anyway, it's not on one line... So what can I do ?

Wily & Right
RockBoard
That's*Paradise

What do you think ?

Since it's a Rockman game, it should be Right, not Light. Smiley

Why is の in there, anyway ?

の is a possessive particle here. It's what adds the apostrophe s.

What's your source on Right vs Light? The two are interchangable, and Light is the more widely-used, in any country...
(no, a romanization by a Japanese guy somewhere in the game doesn't count--check out Phantasy Star II if you want to see why)

Well, the first one is just plain wrong. The second one is commonly used in English.

Wily and Rights Rockboad That is Paradise

Wily And Right is Rockboard That is Paradise

unless i am mistaken doesn't apostrophe S usually mean is?   [That's::That is    He's::He is]

Wily and Rights'
 would be correct, i'm fairly certain.

That's what I'm using in my translation which is taking me forever because 2K Games night shift sucks your soul out and gives one no free time.  It's a good job though.

The name is Right, though, not Rights. Right's is possessive of Right. Rights' would be possessive of Rights. And Right's would also be Right is, if you wanted to be confusing.
