 1. Install [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org).
 2. Open the `MINGW32` prompt. (**NOTE:** _not_ the `MSYS` prompt or the `MINGW64` prompt)
-3. Install dependencies: `pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-toolchain mingw-w64-i686-SDL2 mingw-w64-i686-zlib make git`

 ### Linux
 
 1. Ensure you have gcc, g++ (version 10.0+) and 32-bit versions of SDL2 (version 2.0.12+), libGL and ZLib installed on your system.
    * On a 64-bit system you also need to have `gcc-multilib` and `g++-multilib` (or your distro's analogues) installed.

 Currently only `i686-linux` and `i686-windows` are supported, using `gcc -m32` and `i686-w64-mingw32-gcc` as compilers, respectively.  
 Alternate compilers can be specified by passing `TOOLCHAIN=i686-whatever-` as a command line argument.
 
 You can build an executable with PAL or JPN ROM support by adding `ROMID=pal-final` or `ROMID=jpn-final` to the `make` command.  
-You will need to provide a `jpn-final` or `pal-final` ROM for those, named `pd.jpn-final.z64` or `pd.pal-final.z64`.
+You will need to provide a `jpn-final` or `pal-final` ROM to run those, named `pd.jpn-final.z64` or `pd.pal-final.z64`.
 
 It might be possible to build a 32-bit ARM executable, but this has not been tested.
