About Beatmania, I renamed them it was a mess before. Some games was named Beat Mania and some Beatmania, so I google it and to me it seams Beatmania is the correct one?

Should always be "as is". As for the casing:
The Official No-Intro Convention (20071030) wrote:2.1.3 Capitalization

Generally all common names, adjectives and verbs should be uppercased.
Articles and link words should be lowercased except when first word.


Examples: Adventure of the Hero, Riding in a Car, Travel from Earth to the
Moon, From Earth..., Into the Darkness...

The official title written by the publisher or developer can be used as a
reference including related titles from other media (movie titles). Some titles
also have an unusual capitalization on purpose. In that case, capitalization
should be left as intended.

Example 1: RoboCop (= Roboter + Cop)
Example 2: Sonic The Hedgehog is all uppercase: "The" is his middle name,
not an article.

However titles that are entirely capitalized should be highly avoided except if
the title is an acronym!
As for the Tsukuru/Tkool, I don't really understand it. If the English word "Tkool" existed, yes, "Tsukuru" would be a Japanese writing of the word Tkool and we would use the original word instead of "Tsukuru". However, this word exists only in Japanese, so I don't understand why some sources use the "Tkool" romanization (very common when mentioning the Japanese version of RPG Maker - "RPG Tkool" instead of the more obvious "RPG Tsukuru"). Could someone explain me, why it should be "Tkool"? Image

Btw, I will be very appreciated to gorelord4e if he won't touch Japanese titles in the future Image

“ツクール”とは、読んで字のごとく“作る”と“ツール”を組み合わせた造語。
Tkool is a coined word of Tsukuru + Tool.

Interesting. Are there other cases of unusual romanization?
