Gideon Zhi has posted an update for Live-A-Live at AGTP.

“It´s taken a whole lot longer than anyone could have predicted, but I think we´ve finally fixed all of the little niggling technical issues. One particularly nasty one, just resolved, would corrupt your save data and replace characters with multiple Oersteds.

The scripts are all edited save for the final chapter, but of course due to that previously-mentioned save corruption, I need to restart the game from the beginning. Provided a speedy replay and no further technical problems (and maybe some wrangling with SNES9X´s cheat engine) an in-house betatest should be coming pretty soon, with a release following shortly thereafter. No promises, though! We thought the technicals had been resolved last September, but look how wrong we were!”

Chrono Trigger: Prophet’s Guile is a new story following Magus’s turbulent experience in Zeal as he dons the guise of the Prophet, curries favor with the Queen, and prepares for his second attempt at exacting revenge on Lavos. It’s full of graphical, level, sound, and design polishes and surprises, reflecting the cutting edge in Trigger hacking. The expanded ROM freezes in SNES9x at some point, so stick with ZSNES for the time being; sorry. It’s about two or three regular Trigger chapters long, and the first Chrono Trigger hack with a new story.

Rings of Power is a very rare RPG for the Genesis console. While the game is very addictive, It will frustrate you with its very hard difficulty. Now you have lots of advantage. This hacked version lets you finish the game with a lot less problems than the original version. Any person that has played the game and couldn’t finish it must try this hack. I’m sure you will enjoy it. Whipon.

After some delays, the translation patch for this game has been completed and uploaded. Several typographical errors have been corrected. The game also received an English title logo, and the edited sections of credits rolls have been properly formatted. Enjoy. ^_^

After several years of efforts, one of the few Mega Man games never available in English has been fully translated: Wily & Light’s Rockboard: That’s Paradise!!

Rockboard is a NES game build around a concept similar to Monopoly: you and a few other players (humans or computers) duke it out to buy lots, build labs and run your opponents into bankruptcy on four game boards. The game was originally released in 1993 in Japan only, and no fan-made translations have been completed until now.

Two patches are available within the same download archive: one keeps the original Japanese names (such as Rockman), while the other brings everything up to date with the North American releases (with Mega Man and friends).

Information, screenshots and the download file are all available on the Mega Man PC Website: Dr. Cossack’s Lab.

Happy New Year all! This was supposed to be released last year, but I finally got the color system working now. Tiles can now use any one of four palettes. So, enjoy!

Nightcrawler has updated his page with the progress that has been made on the Emerald Dragon translation beta test!

He has fixed all the bugs reported thus far. One tester has finished the game, the rest have had real-life interruptions. His latest accomplishment was getting the casino mini-games translated, which was a pain since the code was almost completely different from the main game. The estimated patch release date and a few other bits of news can be found at the following link:

PC Engine fans rejoice! Another translation comes your way. This time it’s for BubbleGum Crash on Hucard. A digital comic set around the Crash series, you unravel a series of mysterious bank robbery incidents. One that just might require Nene, Linna, Priss, and Sylia to band the Knight Sabers together again, for one more show down.

RHDN entry

Did you beat Secret of Mana for the umpteenth time again and said to yourself, “Man, that was so damn easy.” Yes? SO DID WE!

For this reason, a fan named “Masterflow” got himself to work editing the game. Enemies are now harder and have more HP, items became more expensive and even some nasty extras were installed. You will hardly play recognition. Towns and palaces which before were very simple will move on to absolute frustration. Are you anxious?

Then fetch the patch at hard-som.de and experience another adventure in the “hard” World of Secret of Mana.
