History of Slovak Video Games and Their Localization

Abstract

Localization of video games is starting to get enough attention in the Slovak academic environment. However, there are still some undiscovered topics, especially when it comes to the origins of localization into Slovak. In this paper, we aim to investigate the history of Slovak videogames and their localization, focusing at the late 80s to the late 90s and to elaborate the missing information on this issue from linguistic and pragmatic viewpoint both quantitatively and qualitatively.
