Translation NES / Famicom

Argos no Senshi: Hachamecha Daishingeki English translation

アルゴスの戦士 はちゃめちゃ大進撃 · The Warrior of Argos · Rygar

A fresh English translation of the Japanese Famicom Argos no Senshi by BlackPaladin and Bunkai, for playing with the original Japanese soundtrack.

Why play it

The Famicom game reached the West as Rygar, but that version changed the music. This patch translates the Japanese release instead, so you get the original score with an English script.

What's translated

Bunkai produced a new translation of the script, including a clearer rewrite of the ending text. BlackPaladin replaced the font, did the text hacking and made an English title screen, Cyneprepou4uk contributed a hack for single-spaced text, and Ryu tested it. Ryu had earlier released his own English patch for the game in 2024.

Playing it

The patch is for the Japanese cartridge and is applied to your own copy of the game, following the instructions on the official page.
