Dai-4-ji Super Robot Taisen English translation
第4次スーパーロボット大戦 · Super Robot Wars 4 · 4th Super Robot Wars
Aeon Genesis' complete English translation of Super Robot Wars 4, the last mainline Super Robot Wars on the Super Famicom, with optional extra patches for music and song lyrics.
What's translated
Aeon Genesis has finished translating the whole game: story scenes, battle quotes, the unit and pilot screens and the menus. The team reports no known issues in version 1.00.
Why it stands out
This entry closes the original Super Robot Wars timeline on the Super Famicom and introduced several things the series kept afterwards: a custom main character, a choice to defend, evade or counter each enemy attack, a character and unit encyclopedia and a karaoke mode.
Extras
The download includes optional patches, among them one that keeps the music playing across scenes and one that adds English lyrics for the brief 1970s English dub of the Mazinger Z theme. These options are chosen when patching, so changing them later means patching a clean copy again.
Playing it
Apply the patch to your own copy of the game, following the instructions on the Aeon Genesis page. The translation expects the 1.1 revision of the game.
