This is news to me

I'd try this game out, but there's only one language :

so.. anyone have this rom ? and a translation patch ?

cant help myself but wanting to play it XD

I read something about a translation patch already in progress, but that could be some kid with follow up questions about 'how to hack roms'.

And the question remains, why bother? This is a great little novelty, but if you're intending to actually play it then consider for a moment how well all those other Chinese knockoff games work out. I'll be surprised if this can be played through before it breaks down entirely.

i spent the better part of the evening a few nights ago hitting all my sources and looking on the web, i can't find any info about a translation patch. seems like if one is going on no one knows about it or has made it public.

Try Nestopia or VirtuaNESex. Those worked for me

after a short conversation with Martin, it appears that nestopia v 1.38 no longer supports the mapper hacks, hacked mappers, and hacked roms pre IPS patched in the goodnes set. he added on the fly ips patching for clean roms and said that the hacked mappers were conflicting with other stuff so he took out support. he said that since the fce ultra fork by CaH4e3 is specificially trageted towards pirated carts and hacks he doesn't see a need to include it in nestopia. with that said, i runs on 1.37 (i did test that) but i'm unsure if it will run on 1.38.

That makes me think.. would be cool if Square Enix decided to pull a Megaman and releases Final Fantasy XIV as a NES game XD

Thats what I thought when I saw the topic haha. I never heard of it oh well.

I thought the words "advent children alone would have made it obvious its fake.

For the translation, check romhacking.net in the translation section. You should see the thread eventually.

Nestopia 1.40 runs it fine

too bad no DS emu can run it tho

There is indeed an English translation project under way at romhacking.net (http://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php?topic=6915.45). There is no official patch release, but the translation thread does link to partly finished IPS translation patches. There is also some research being done for a gameplay improvement patch (http://www.romhacking.net/forum/index.php/topic,7137.0.html).

FCEUX and Nestopia both support the NANJING163 mapper.

I also found someone got it to run as a GBA (http://hi.baidu.com/maxzhou88/blog/item/26b64b43ab21b91573f05df0.html), but I found the ROM to run slow and jittery in VBA. It might work in an NDS slot-2 adapter, but mine's broken, so I couldn't tell you.
