Haha, love the Nintendo life intro, though Alex usually says it like this: "Hellooo there lovely peeeeople this is AlexfromNintendoLifehere"....XD Jokes aside, 😎 another awesome video, love your passion for even Japanese N64 games!
@@n64glennplant Yeah there's a preview on RUclips. It's coming along, another one that's a must play for me as and when it's completed (and despite not making much progress with my N64 backlog).
It's weird how most of the Japan only Nintendo games seem to graphically push the hardware much more than what we got in the west. I'm looking at this and, apart from the 2D characters which are both aesthetically nice and less taxing on the hardware, the environment is way more detailed than anything else I've seen on N64. Maybe apart from Majora's Mask.
Glenn thank you very much for making a video! I know that this patch was a labor of love for many years, so it's great to see it getting some recognition! The hacker behind it, Ozidual is also working on a patch for Getter Love and doing the hacking for Yakouchu 2!
Yeah I know teary eyes Anderson did a document format for it but getting it into the game is a whole another task! I know getter love is quite a quirky and funny game so I’ll be looking forward to seeing that eventually too! Zool is another one I see many people asking for!
@@n64glennplant Ah Zool is such a little known game. Like Onegai Monsters it's mainly aimed at elementary school students so it's not the deepest game out there, but the art style is nice. The translation project for Onegai Monsters has some what stalled as it's hard to extract the text. Ozidual is working on that too!
Was NOT expecting there to be this level of humor from the dialogue in this game. In fact, I expected it to be pretty by the numbers jrpg stuff. It's amazing how much the translation adds to it. I wasn't all that interested in the game after I watched your original Japanese Eye review tbh, but now I'm really interested to give the game a try. Looks fun.
I always knew about Shiren but had never played the games until I got absolutely addicted to the Switch game(the port of the Vita game). I'll definitely check this one out.
This is so cool! I just finished the SNES Shiren the Wanderer translation earlier this year. I completely forgot there was an N64 sequel. Can't wait to get stuck in this one!
@@n64glennplant I love this series, it is such a shame so many games are locked down to japan due to language. I considered many times to learn japanese just to be able to play those games, but it is not an easy endeavor. I'm very thankful to the translators.
Loved the gameplay footage, enjoyed the visuals and the music is very nice and soothing. Big applause to those who worked on the translation! When the Women asked if you wanted to help out at the restaurant and you accepted but she refused and sent you on your way...then you made the Chief cry! 🤣
@@n64glennplant I know. I've heard it before. Getting an Everdrive would be so easy but I just like switching out cartridges. Might sound silly but it's an experience I don't mind paying for. I would love to make my own repros but the kits for that have been sold out for a long while :(
1st this video is kinda fresh with a fan tranlated n64 game and 2nd I really enjoy this "kinda" experimental video. 3rd I really like the render look from the n64 era😃Well done Sir🙂
haha I always find it funny seeing John on camera because the voice really doesn't suit the person. its a nice voice though, great for voiceovers and should get an agent for tv work
@@n64glennplant I have to credit you for the recent surge in my love for n64 gaming. I’ve gone through your entire playlist a few times now and I keep finding new gems to go out and play.
As much as I love the spritework in the most recent Shiren game, I would love a modern game with the 3D "sprites" that the Saturn and n64 were known for
I know the way text is put into certain games varies (sometimes it requires whole artwork to alter text, in other games it’s character based) but from what I’m aware of there’s nothing being worked on at the moment
Excellent find mate, and video concept...let the footage do the talking. I'm guessing you've seen that A Golden Eye release on switch may not be fiction after all?? 😱
Yeah it’s a still “wait and see” for me, people are making too much of a deal about it saying they wouldn’t spend money etc….it costs very little and if there was an apportioning to get it through courts now then why not even if it was based on a future hope that the rights issues may get resolved.
I've got the original cartridge in japanese, and maybe i missed something by having no idea what the texts said, but the game was really really hard, could never beat it.
lol not a jab, more of a tribute as I get quite a few comments asking if were the same person. Im not really into collabs but either way I don't think we have anything to collaborate on as were very different channels
I always felt Nintendo made a mistake by not releasing this in the West. Sure, a rogue-like RPG was not going to set the world on fire and make people go out and buy the console just to play it. But it would have at least been something the N64 owners who resented the lack of RPGs on the system could look forward to.
Wow, I'll have to check it out! I'll probably use an Emulator as it's easier for me to set up. Do you know of any other Japanese exclusive N64 games that are translated like this game?
Zonkitty has translated a lot of games. Including Densha De Go which is a very fun arcade train sim. He even managed to hack the voice control unit in the game.
I always wondered if someone would do that with the Yakochu II, translation that I made, "Yakochu II: Satsujin Koro, with Complete English Translation" ruclips.net/video/HUy-Q89r5sQ/видео.html . I also translated Doshin the Giant 1, Doshin 2 {yeah, I know it has a longer title, but I hate the longer title name} for 64DD, Doraemon 1 for N64, Japan Pro Golf Tour 64, I think all those translations are on IGN, except Yakochu II, as that would be like putting a entire novel on their site or some other site. I tried that for "Banana Prince" for NES. Then a user named 'King Mike ' took my text and made a NES patch, but also claimed a copyright credit on the title screen, which I was pretty sure we'd get sued for. :( But as far as I know nobody ever tried, it with the other N64 games, probably too much text, and my translation is pretty rubbish for someone to want to put it into a rom patch. I originally finished the Yakochu II project back in 2017, but shortly after that RUclips removed the captions, but I had already saved capture footage of the added captions. So now the shorter versions don't have that transcript option that I loved from the shorter videos, which made it really easy to edit, and view all the text. Instead the longer version released in 2019 only has the text imbedded into the video, which sadly can't be updated or changed.
I'm interested in this game, hopefully it comes to the horrible N64 online for Switch, so Alex can say "Hello and welcome to another episode of N64 Time Capsule... sorry, hello lovely peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-"

Wonderful news. Loving seeing all these translations and homebrew appearing these days. Fingers crossed there is many more to come :)
ill try to hash out some of the many other ones I have on my backlog over the coming weeks!
@@n64glennplant Take your time! Always appreciate your quality content!
I'll give my everything for a super robot wars 64 translation!
This is excellent, well done to everyone involved! (The Custom Robo V2 English Translation is also due soonish).
Yeah and I hear yakouchu 2 is being worked on at the mo too
@@n64glennplant Yeah there's a preview on RUclips. It's coming along, another one that's a must play for me as and when it's completed (and despite not making much progress with my N64 backlog).
Never heard of that game, guess it's another N64 jewel to add to my list...Thanks Glenn and the translators!
hope you enjoy it!

im sure one day we will eventually see both when the times right :)
Big news! Hell yeah. Thanks for doing the followup video
No problem!
Not all Heros wear capes. Some translate video games.
Amen to that! The amount of work needed is intense
Was NOT expecting there to be this level of humor from the dialogue in this game. In fact, I expected it to be pretty by the numbers jrpg stuff. It's amazing how much the translation adds to it.
I wasn't all that interested in the game after I watched your original Japanese Eye review tbh, but now I'm really interested to give the game a try. Looks fun.
yeah I too found the writing to be spot on
That looks awesome! Added on my "Have to play - list" now!
Let me know what you make of it after you check it out
I always knew about Shiren but had never played the games until I got absolutely addicted to the Switch game(the port of the Vita game). I'll definitely check this one out.
Ive also never played Torneko's mystery dungeon, which is a shame as I'm a big fan of Torneko, obviously.
Sounds like this translation patch is ideal for your tastes then!
This is so cool! I just finished the SNES Shiren the Wanderer translation earlier this year. I completely forgot there was an N64 sequel. Can't wait to get stuck in this one!
Oh man Walter you’re in for a treat then
I saw the translation release some days ago. I'm already playing since. Very good.
Very glad to hear that too!

Haha it has similar humour to goemon, not as funny or lol moments but that quirky Japanese humour for sure
翻訳パッチ作ったって事ですかね？
素晴らしい！
スイッチオンラインに来ることを夢見ています。
Awesome video! I hope to see repro carts of this translation soon!
Or just buy an everdrive! Repro carts only make scummy companies money off someone else’s hard work ✌️

Maybe I’ve been watching too much jackfrags recently 😃
I was about to comment that your audio cut out like 5 minutes in but I kinda got distracted and missed the farewell. Was like oh its intentional.
Haha I know my voice is easy to zone out too so don’t worry
This looks like a really fun game Thanks for sharing 🙌😊 and have a wonderful day!
You too hyru!
Glad to hear that it's playable on Everdrive 64.
yeah absolutely no problems at all
Man, I have a soft spot for them 3D rendered sprites of ye olden days.
You and me too
I think you may sound more like John than Alex from Nintendo Life! Maybe it's just me though! :D Great video, Glenn!
haha I always find it funny seeing John on camera because the voice really doesn't suit the person. its a nice voice though, great for voiceovers and should get an agent for tv work
@@n64glennplant I couldn't agree more! :D
Always good to get some “new” N64 RPG action!
I know right!
Hurray!
Hopefully lots more translations on the way
Actually thought my tablet was playing up again haha!
haha why so?
@@n64glennplant Alex from Nintendo life here lol, thought it had loaded the wrong vid
single best n64 game ever made btw.
Interesting take!
@n64glennplant definitely probably an insane take but I've never fell in love with a game this hard in a very long time.
That intro killed me! Hahahaha
😄

It’s tough for any developer now I think as trying to do something new whilst appealing to fans of older games from any series is a tough order
Thanks
Hope you enjoy!
@@n64glennplant Always mate
Ever heard of anyone working on translating the goemon board game? That would be amazing...
I know the way text is put into certain games varies (sometimes it requires whole artwork to alter text, in other games it’s character based) but from what I’m aware of there’s nothing being worked on at the moment
Thank you m8
No problem - hope you enjoy it
Thoughts on the fan translation (well, the porting of the script from the GC version) of Cubivore next please!
I’m looking forward to custom robo 2 next
Excellent find mate, and video concept...let the footage do the talking. I'm guessing you've seen that A Golden Eye release on switch may not be fiction after all?? 😱

I've got the original cartridge in japanese, and maybe i missed something by having no idea what the texts said, but the game was really really hard, could never beat it.
Yeah it’s tough but this type of game generally is designed that way….try the English patch which makes things slightly easier
I read Japanese fine and even this game is tougher because of the Kanji load. This is best one in the series in my opinion.
I think this game would look awesome on my 38" 4:3 CRT Beast
Now if we can get this game on cartridge, I'll buy it :)
It’s only a matter of time before china do it
Funny jab at Nintendo Life. Have you or ever thought about collabing with them?
lol not a jab, more of a tribute as I get quite a few comments asking if were the same person. Im not really into collabs but either way I don't think we have anything to collaborate on as were very different channels
I'll call you GlenN64.
This game is new to me but looks good
Defo worth checking out!
@@n64glennplant sounds good
Woot!
You gonna be checking this one out?
@@n64glennplant I think I may. Mostly excited for a new video tbh

Yeah that’s so true especially as rpg were so lacking
Haha great intro
Do you watch NL too?
@@n64glennplant hello there lovely peeeeeeeeople 😁😁😁 I do 😄
I hope 64 Oozumou or the Japanese version of Mystical Ninja get translated in the future.
64 ozoumu 1 and 2 are both done
Wow, I'll have to check it out! I'll probably use an Emulator as it's easier for me to set up. Do you know of any other Japanese exclusive N64 games that are translated like this game?
Custom robo 1 and 2 are the big ones, last legion UX too but that didn’t really need too much work like this one did
Zonkitty has translated a lot of games. Including Densha De Go which is a very fun arcade train sim. He even managed to hack the voice control unit in the game.
@@n64glennplant cool! I thought custom robo was brought over to the GameCube, similar to Animal Crossing?
wasnt this series on DS?
there is a DS entry in the series (not a version of this game) and the series was back on SNES too
It was on Wii and DS (similar games) but different design aspects. This series has many games and started in Japan.
it's a shame we didn't get more Japanese games translated and released in America!
we just have to hope and pray that one day they release a collection with all the unreleased games in one.
That’s true I hope one day more get done

Top gear overdrive sucks
Not sure what that’s got to do with this video but okay 😂
Ozumo sumo 1 and 2 both have full translations to.
Yeah I like both of those games
