Shounen Ashibe: Nepal Daibouken no Maki English translation
少年アシベ ネパール大冒険の巻 · Li'l Ashibe and the Great Nepalese Adventure
A complete English translation of the Shounen Ashibe Famicom adventure, retitled Li'l Ashibe and the Great Nepalese Adventure, with a new font and English title screen.
What's translated
The whole game is in English: the story text, the command menu used to talk, look, take and move around, and the title screen, which now reads Li'l Ashibe and the Great Nepalese Adventure. BlackPaladin replaced the font and added dual-tile encoding so more English text fits on the Famicom's screen.
The game
It is a menu-driven adventure starring kindergartner Ashibe and his baby seal Goma, split into chapters that start with tasks like finding Goma before the trip to Nepal can begin.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese cartridge following the instructions on the release page.
