Revision as of 15:58, 25 May 2013

THIS PAGE IS BEING WORKED ON, PREPARE FOR IT TO TAKE A WHILE UNTIL IT'S FINISHED.


Only a small percentage of the Japanese/Chinese/etc. exclusive games that have a rom translation actually have a link in their descriptions (and most people don't know where to look), So to help those in need, this is a page dedicated to listing those games (as well as games that have Japanese/Chinese/etc. versions superior to localized ones), the status of their translation patch, and a link to where to get it, a small description is also added if needed.

There will also be a section dedicated to rom patching, hard- vs. soft-patching, software that are known to work with soft-patching, how to on how you hard patch your roms, as well as information about using ROM patches that work on copiers, eventually that is.


Note that most (all?) games are listed after their original name, so if you're for example looking for The King of Demons to SNES, It's under M for Majyuu Ou. The original names should be in the title section of the other pages. All games still have the translated names as well in the title, but not first.


PROTIP: Press CTRL+F (or CMD+F if you're a macfag) and type the name if you can't find it.

ROM Patching

More information will be added here soon, until then, just follow the instructions that came with the downloaded patch.


Soft- vs. Hard-patching

-

Soft-patching, Software known to work

Name Working formats Description Link


Hard-patching, How to

BPS / IPS / PPF / FF / UPS / RXL / PDS / (TEENAGE MUTANT) NINJA (TURTLES)


ROM Patching for use on a Copier

Did you know that there was a type of hardware back in the day (as early as on the NES) called a Copier, similar to modern modchips/flash cartridges?, Did you know that there are sometimes specific translation patches needed for the roms to work properly on them?, More on that as soon as OP gets productive and adds some proper shit to this section.
