Translation NES / Famicom

Maison Ikkoku English translation

めぞん一刻

An AI-assisted English patch for the 1988 Famicom adventure based on Rumiko Takahashi's Maison Ikkoku, with all dialogue, commands and names in English.

What's translated

All the dialogue and narration, the command menu, item names and location names are in English. The project counts every identified line and name in the game, close to a thousand, plus all 74 command slots, as translated, so you can follow Godai's misadventures with Kyoko, Kentaro and the rest of the Ikkoku-kan residents without any Japanese.

How it was made

The translation was made with AI assistance and then reviewed and playtested by the translator, who has released a string of Famicom, Game Boy and Super Famicom translations in the same repository.

Playing it

This is version 1.0. Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese cartridge, keeping its header as it is, following the instructions on the project page.
