Are translations accurate?

Like I have a 100% translated Fire Emblem 1 for the NES.
Will it be exactly like a USA released Fire Emblem 1?

And what emulator for the DS can run that rom?

And what emulator for the PC can run that rom?

NesDS (DS) or HVCA/pocketnes (Dwedit versions esp.) are decent emulators.

My experience of translations though is the user/fan translated are closer to the Japanese original text (which in my opinion is better) and less censored (late 80's/early 90's Nintendo of America was beyond notorious for this). Of course some translations were done as demos/first projects and are consequently not that great.

Sometimes the US got "easy" versions too

Oh if you get the time there was a FF1 total conversion called Dragoon X Omega which is well worth a play through.

    I've had it for 2 or 3 years
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    haven't used it more than 4 or 5 times.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    It's great for still games
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    but games where I move...
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Damn such a shame, looks like a great headset
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    I don't have motion sickness issues so I should be fine

  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I do not understand the fuss about vr porn, nothing special.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    How is it?
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    As I said, nothing special.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Huh ok
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    pretty blurry in general as well
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Hm makes sense, if I were to guess the number 1 problem of VR porn would be production budget
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    It's a really small niche so it makes sense the stuff isn't super high quality
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Not the production itself
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    but rather what is needed to run it properly.
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    What do you mean?
