Dragon Ball Z: Kyōshū! Saiyajin English translation
ドラゴンボールZ 強襲!サイヤ人 · Dragon Ball Z: Kyoushuu! Saiya Jin · Dragon Ball Z: Assault of the Saiyans
Twilight Translations' reworked English patch for the first Famicom Dragon Ball Z card RPG, with a rewritten script, compressed text in roomier windows and two old bugs fixed.
What's translated
The whole Saiyan saga story, battles and menus are in English. For versions 1.00 and 1.01 the script was translated again and edited, and RedComet added text compression so nothing had to be trimmed to fit; the text windows also hold twice as much as before. Two bugs once thought impossible to fix were solved, and the patch got its own title screen subtitle.
Some emulators, Mesen among them, may need the ROM header set to mapper 159 after patching. A later addendum by injoon84 (2025) builds on this translation with save and password fixes.
