Game Description:
At first, you may just see a (pretty) Dragon Quest clone, but this game actually sounds cool from all the stuff people say about it. You’re a Monster Hunter, which isn’t what it sounds like.. You hunt down monsters and kill them, and collect the bounty on them. Sweet, right? You can also amass a fleet of vehicles to drive around and stuff. I haven’t played it much (well, at all) so I can’t exactly elaborate. Trust me though, it’ll be cool when it’s in English.
Translation Description:
This is a complete English translation of the original Famicom version of Metal Max.

Great stuff
Reviewed By: Ness on 21 Feb 2022Great work. I really appreciated making sure character and enemy names use an appropriate number of characters.
Nothing really negative to say, the protagonist’s father throws a couple of insults but I can’t say if that’s innacurate and it’s certainly quite fitting with the personality of the father and the father/son relationship of the characters.
I can only second the wish to see LIPEMCO! Translations translate Metal Max 2 (SFC) as well. Yes, the remake has been translated but it’s almost a completely different game. With the release of games like Metal Dogs and Metal Max Xeno Reborn, the interest for the series in the west is only going to increase. Until then, desperate players like me will have to stick to using the built-in AI translation tool of retroarch…
