Translation SNES / Super Famicom

Ganbare Goemon: Yuki Hime Kyuushutsu Emaki English translation

がんばれゴエモン〜ゆき姫救出絵巻 · The Legend of the Mystical Ninja

A fresh English translation of the Japanese Legend of the Mystical Ninja, with an optional version that replaces passwords with saving.

What it is

DDSTranslation retranslated the Japanese release of the first Super Famicom Goemon game, known in the West as The Legend of the Mystical Ninja. The aim is a script that follows the original Japanese text rather than the 1992 localization.

What's new

Version 2.0 was released on 26 August 2020 in two flavours. The regular patch keeps the original password system, while the SRAM version swaps passwords for battery-style saves, so you can continue from the title screen instead of writing codes down.

Playing it

The patch is applied to your own copy of the game, following the creators' instructions. It works with the Japanese releases of the cartridge. The patch and its notes are on the romhacking.net entry.
