Translation Game Boy

Pocket Love English translation

ポケットラブ · Poketto Rabu

An English patch for Pocket Love, KID's obscure 1997 Game Boy dating sim, built on a hand-made disassembly of the game.

What's translated

The dialogue, the weekly planner, the stat screens and the relationship chart are in English, so you can follow each girl's route to its ending. The author worked from a disassembly they did by hand, and says machine translation helped with a lot of the Japanese.

Extras

The GitHub repository also has a guide to the stat values that unlock each ending, plus notes on how the game works for anyone who wants to dig further.

Playing it
