II. Introduction                                                      (00200)
===============================================================================


This is a translation guide for Higurashi Daybreak Portable on the Playstation
Portable, written by DDT213 of GameFAQs. In this guide I will cover everything
from the menus, characters, weapons, to the basic controls. I will also go
over the prologue and each endings, which means there WILL be spoilers. A
*SPOILER* warning will be given upon any plot-related information.


===============================================================================
III. Translations                                                     (00300)
===============================================================================


Before we start, you should know that in Japanese games, O is for confirmation
while X is for cancellation, which is the exact opposite of NA games. Keep in
mind that in some menus, you could head back to the previous screen simply by
pressing the X button, but some others will require you to use the '' Back to
Title '' option given at the bottom.
