| UPDATE! (13) NES  The Glory of Heracles - Labors of the Divine Hero This turn based RPG by the now defunct Data East was originally a blatant Dragon Quest clone, but it changed dramatically before it was released. Its most unique feature is that the transition from overworld to towns is seamless as the towns are part of the overworld. NPCs can even walk outside of the towns. This game was the start of one of DECO's two main game series, the other being the puzzler Magical Drop. Until recently, none of the games in the series were released in the U.S., although II (NES) and III (SNES) in the series have been translated. IV (SNES) and the gaiden for the GB have not, although IV was released on the Wii in Japan. Although our project was started well before, V (DS) has recently come out, made by a new company called Paon and published by Nintendo. In Japan was is called Hercules no Eikou: Tamashii no Shoumei released on May 22, 2008. Amazingly, the US got its first officialy release of a Heracles games with NOA releasing this game in the US as simply Glory of Heracles on Jan 18, 2010. I just got it for my birthday. Go out and buy it! As soon as Portopia Rev. B is released, we will go back to focusing on this game. Accomplished: Title screen hack complete, ROM expanded - space for new script now 2.8 times the japanese space, items translated and inserted, menus translated and expanded to handle items with 8 characters, special character functions defined, issues with sound/music defined and fixed, script window increased to 18 x 5 characters, first partial scripts inserted Currently: Alpha testing by DvD, getting pictures of all the monsters to correct the translation of their names, locating the ending credits. Script is mostly translated, but due to the order of the japanese language, battles sound weird. Some other phrases are not translated yet. This project is on a temporary hold to push us to finish Portopia Rev. B. Still to Do: Final script & item name editing, beta testing |
UPDATE! (6) NES The Portopia Serial Murder Case (Rev B) We did the best with the translated script we had, but we got some things wrong. After releasing the game harmony7 joined our team so he could improve the script of this game which he's had since he was a child. Accomplished: 100% of script revised by harmony7, changed to more comonly emulated mapper chip, improved Shinkaichi graphics, menus revised, DvD completed going through, 99% of script editing completed, html version of originial japanese manual completely translated, editing of manual 90% done, Currently: harmony7 finalizing last script and manual edits |
(12) NES An traditional RPG but with action battles; third in the series... Finding the pointer tables for this was extremely difficult, but DvD finally found the pointer to the first NPC! Accomplished: Title Screen Hacked, Script Located, Pointer to first NPC finally found Currently: Working on getting the entire pointer table |

(15) FDS A Dragon Quest parody, yet an action RPG DvD is intersted in doing an FDS game for something a little different. Accomplished: Items and Equipment Translated, Script Located, Japanese Fonts Compared, English Font Order Defined Currently: Dumping Script |
(14) NES Pocket Zaurus harmony7 would like to see this platformer done. He used to play it as a kid. Accomplished: Script Located Currently: Dumping Script |
(8) SNES Battle Racers A pretty fun cart racer for the SNES that uses the same DSP chip as Super Mario Kart. It might be the only SNES cart racer not released in the US. DvD is not really ready to learn the SNES at this time, "I finally got good at the NES!" Accomplished: Uncompressed Graphics Translated/Hacked Currently: Searching for Compressed Graphics |
