SonSon II English translation
ソンソンII · Son Son II
A single-patch English translation of Capcom's Journey to the West platformer for the PC Engine, with a wider dialogue box for the new text.
What's translated
Jackic's patch puts all of the game's Japanese text into English: conversations with allies and bosses, shopkeepers and the hints scattered through each stage. The dialogue window was enlarged so the English lines fit comfortably.
It replaces an older English release from 2017 that had to be combined with a separate hack, so this one works as a single patch on its own. The translator reports playing it through to the end on real hardware as well as in an emulator.
Playing it
The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese release of the game, following the instructions on the creator's page. Version 0.9 is the current release.
