This is one of Konami’s first NES games from way back in the day, and the possible origin for their old obsession with penguins.

In Antarctic Adventure, you play the role of a penguin that goes around the South Pole on a race, visiting different stations for no reason at all. On the way you’ll have to brave holes and seals while trying to catch fish and flags for extra points. Grab a flashing flag and you’ll get a special boost which allows you to float for a few seconds once while jumping.

There’s not much else to do in this game other than go forward and beat the clock. The game is fun, but it’s also very simple, so many people will get bored of it rather quickly.

Portuguese translation of Kekkyoku Nankyoku Daibouken, called “Antarctic Adventure” in the title screen.

Used Terwilf’s Spanish translation as a base, its readme recommends using it as a base for other translations.

Accents couldn’t be added due to space limitations, but is otherwise complete.

Compared to the other texts, the “PLAY SELECT” text was a bit more difficult to translate.

Apply the patch to a clean REV0 ROM.
