Goemon: Shin Sedai Shuumei English translation
ゴエモン新世代襲名 · Goemon: The Successor for a New Generation
A complete English translation of Konami's last PlayStation Goemon game, including subtitles over the videos and every in-game graphic with text.
What's translated
"Goemon: The Successor for a New Generation", version 1.0 from November 20, 2022, is a full translation. The whole script is in English, along with the menus, every graphic that has text on it, and new subtitles for the videos that cover the game's original Japanese ones. Most of the text lives in optional town conversations and side quests, so while the game could be finished without Japanese, much of it was out of reach until now.
Extras
The readme has tips for newcomers, such as how money and defense items work and that some side quests open only after the ending, plus the full list of special moves for the mech battles, which the game itself never explains. The team also released a workbook and their tools alongside the patch.
Playing it
The patch is an xdelta file applied to your own copy of the Japanese disc's main data track, following the instructions in the readme. Get it from the translation's page linked below.
