Translation NES / Famicom

Spartan X 2 English translation

スパルタンX2

Abstract Crouton Productions' English patch for Irem's Japan-only Famicom sequel to Kung-Fu Master.

What's translated

This 2003 patch by Abstract Crouton Productions turns the Japanese text of Spartan X 2 into English. The game is mostly action, so there is little to read, but the story scenes and on-screen text between stages are no longer a barrier for players who don't read Japanese.

The game

Spartan X 2 is Irem's own Famicom follow-up to Spartan X, better known in the West as Kung-Fu Master. It keeps the side-scrolling punches and kicks of the original and adds more varied stages and bosses.

Playing it

The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese Famicom cartridge, following the instructions on the patch's database page.
