I Got a Nintendo Game Translated Just so I Could Play It - Famicom Fairytales: New Onigashima
I am taking on a challenge to beat every playable Nintendo-published game! Game 135 is Famicom Fairytailes: New Onigashima, known as Famicom Mukashibanashi: Shin Onigashima in Japan! Because of the FDS hardware, this game is difficult to create a translation patch for, so there are none that exist. However, thanks to the efforts of sudgylacmoe, I was able to play it in English through a Lua script.
Sudgy has decided to make this script available to the public, and you can download it from his github at:
https://github.com/sudgy/nintendo_translations
Sudgy wants it to be known that he is an amateur translator, so there may be some mistakes. If you are interested, you can read more about his translation philosophy in the github.
Sudgy also has a YouTube channel where he teaches advanced mathematics: / @sudgylacmoe
