This is Oishinbou: Kyukyoku no Menu 3bon Syoubu, a Famicom adventure game based around the popular cooking-themed manga series Oishinbo. Someone actually translated this thing. Nobody knows why. Nobody wants to know, either.

I did it, specifically to bamboozle people like you.

OP you can't bump your own thread. You ought to know that by now.

i guess it's kind of neat to see someone translate an adventure game since they're usually ignored

I've translated SD Hero Soukessen 10 years ago.

are there any games that arent translated in 2024?

A lot, especially adventure games since translators often tend to only care about RPGs.

That was a pretty popular manga in Japan, and the game in question was apparently notorious for being awful. It was also published by Shinsei, the same company who was behind the production of Monster Party (though I think the actual developer was different)

I think there's around 200-ish Famicom RPGs (SNES has something like 300) and at least 60% of them have been translated. Note that it's easier to translate a CHR ROM game as the graphics are not compressed and the OP game was just a regular old boring MMC1 CHR ROM cart so not hard to do. For SNES games of course all of them have compressed graphics so it's more work.

There are quite a few translated NES adventure games.

They didn't seem to like Oishinbo very much and I can't say I blame them.

surprised nobody's translated Risa no Yousei Densetsu since it's unabashed coomer b8

Time Tiwst not having a translation is very surprising. Not only is it first party Nintendo, it is absolute peak insanity. It's presumably meant to be semi-educational in that it involves time travel through some historical events, but the end result is a game featuring the KKK and a possessed Baby Jesus.

lol no. it's a dopey little fairy tale themed adventure game featuring an 80s Japanese pop singer nobody remembers anymore but no coomer b8.

Pretty dumb game and you can game over by doing retarded stuff like getting arrested by the police, getting the captain of a fishing boat too drunk, not preparing a monkfish correctly, etc.

As a matter of fact you can

Some Famicom adventure games can be interesting.

The one I'd like to see the most is Jarinko Chi but it probably will never be translated because the format would require a lot of effort and changes

>>10839935
There is only 200 RPGs if you count everything with exp or stat to be "an RPG" like action sidescrollers with level up

Anyway, it's still culture.
It's a way to preserve some culture that was not tainted with the globohomo.
The globohomo want us to eat onions and to turn gay, and the ladies are supposed to turn lesbians
Hooray for cooking, and for pussy and big titties!!!
Down with the globohomo!!!
