Shadowrun (Mega-CD) English translation
シャドウラン
RetchERezzed's machine-assisted English translation of the Japan-only Mega-CD Shadowrun, playable from start to finish across all seven scenarios.
What's translated
The story text of all seven scenarios, the conversations and the ending are in English, as are the menus, equipment, items, spells, shops and battle commands. The script began as a machine translation and was then edited by hand, with revised wording and line breaks and fixes found through playtesting and player feedback. Version 1.4 Final follows a full editorial pass over the script.
Variants
The release comes in two styles, all capitals or mixed upper and lower case, and each is offered for Japanese, U.S. and European BIOS regions, so you can boot it with the console BIOS you use.
Playing it
The patch is applied to the data track of your own copy of the Japanese disc, following the instructions on RetchERezzed's GitHub page.
