Translation NES / Famicom

Jajamaru Gekimaden: Maboroshi no Kinmajou English translation

じゃじゃ丸撃魔伝 幻の金魔城 · Ninja Jajamaru: Prophecy of the Demon - The Demonic Castle

Stardust Crusaders and aishsha's English translation of Jaleco's ninja action RPG for the Famicom, with a new English title screen.

What's translated

The patch, finished on November 8, 2009, puts the game's text in English: dialogue, item messages, shops and the story scenes. The English title is "Ninja Jajamaru: Prophecy of the Demon - The Demonic Castle", shown on a new title screen drawn by a friend of the team.

How it was made

Stardust Crusaders wrote a DTE routine so more text fits in the game, then aishsha translated and inserted the script. Both played through the game to test it before release.

Playing it
