!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.

Our Rules:

1. Keep it civil.


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.


2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.


Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

I will have to check that out. Since it's Japanese, do I need to look for an English patch or does the normal rom have English text?

If you're familiar with the English versions, navigating the menus in Japanese isn't bad. The whole roster can be edited, and part of that is being able to change the names to romaji/English. I believe there's a patch available to take care of most if not all of that. Let me see if I saved the post where someone else told me about it.

Back in the day I did all of those edits by hand on the physical cart. I still have the cart... one day I'll boot it up again in the hope that the battery hasn't died.

Edit: I think this is it

Awesome. I appreciate that. I'll pray to the battery gods that your cart still has all your save data on it. Most of my carts are still good. A couple Gameboy carts no longer hold save data, but otherwise all good. Someday I am going to look into replacing those batteries.
