This patch replaces the weird instrumental intro with the original 'Makafushigi Adventure!' theme. This is different from swapping sdats in that it only replaces the intro song, so the Title Screen will use the US instrumental song which fits well with the game (the J version just uses the intro song again).

PPF available here
Apply using PPF-O-Matic (When it asks for ISO, just use the rom)

If possible, I'd like to get the English version of 'Makafushigi Adventure' into the game in a future patch.

does it just replace the data.sdat file?

does that affect other sound in the game, or exclusively the op song?

This is NOT an sdat replacement. It ONLY replaces the intro song. All other sounds remain the same as the US version. Particularly, the instrumental theme used as the US intro can be heard on the title screen.

In the J version, it would replay Makafushigi as the title, and in the unmodified U version, it would replay the instrumental theme. This patch makes it so that the intro movie and title screen have different songs, which is actually pretty cool.

and the English version of 'Makafushigi Adventure' could be quite cool aswell, but honestly i don't really mind they are equally good lol.

ISO is the term for CD/DVD games, ROM is the term for cartridge games, but they're the same thing as far as a patcher is concerned.

i have never seen the american OR the japense dragon ball series, only the german version

but i instantly preferred the japanese version.

i'm curious if DBO will get a release in europe,
and if the music will be replaced with the german intro "find the 7 dragonballs"(translated)

Where it says CD ISO when you are looking for which file to patch, switch it to all files and then select Dragon Ball Origins.

It would of been better if the US version had the English translated version of the Dragon Ball Theme Opening.



The sync is all there with the Japanese version. But then again, it's a typical Americanized Dragon Ball intro dub "no singing, just bg music"

    @Psionic Roshambo, idk
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    Try Wood firmware
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, why?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    but why choose it over ysmenu @Psionic Roshambo?

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card

    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
