Thank you for translating all these unlocalised Picross games! I super appreciate it, since I've almost finished all the English games now.

This isn't the last one though - as far as I know the original Club Nintendo Picross hasn't been translated?

AFAIK, Club Nintendo Picross Plus contains all picrosses from Club Nintendo Picross.

I just checked my copies of both games and there is zero puzzle overlap in the Picross and Micross modes. Some (but not all) standard Picross puzzles from the first game come back as Mega Picross puzzles in Plus.

They’re two distinct games, despite what the “Plus” suggests.

Oh. Then I’ll translate it too.

Update: LayeredFS patch with full english translation available.

thanks for this!

What's the .DS_Store file in the title folder?

It’s OSX junk. Just delete or ignore it.

Small update:
- Reduced font size on buttons in main menu.
- A little fix to "Press home button to return to the HOME menu" text.

Also, there is my port of Picross S from Switch. Don't know why it didn't get almost any attention

As a n00b on citra how do you get this to work there? I have legit hardware but it ran out of space between all my CFW stuff and game data.

Seconding return's request for further instructions. I installed Club Nintendo Picross Plus cia, put "0004000000153400" into /luma/titles, but everything's still untranslated. I don't really care about the banner. Do I need a specific dump or need to enable the mod somehow? I just installed luma yesterday so please bear with me

You need to turn on game patching in luma settings.

is the loading time for the menu supposed to be absurdly long? The main picross page is taking upwards of 20 seconds for me.

Yes. You need to rebuild .cia to get normal loading times or find prepatched .cia.

Love this.

I found some minor errors:

Green letter "Donkey Kong Country" and "Metroid Zero Mission" are drawn one pixel too high. Maybe a smaller font was used...?

Micross M039: "Balloon Fight" and "Balloon Bird" are both misspelled, in different ways.
