    I propose we make a thread with a list.

    This list shall contain every Famicom/Disk System exclusive that has an English fan translation only.  Can't be an official American release, only fan translations.  We can add it to the stickied "Lists" thread/

    Good idea?

    Good idea.  The (incomplete) list starts here.  The list is in order of game name, translator, and version.  If the patch is still in development, the percentage of completion of of today's date is listed rather than the version.

    • Dezaemon (Aeon Genesis, V1.00

    • Daisenryaku (Aeon Genesis,1.00)

    Famicom Disk System
    • Electrician (KingMike, V1.00)

    • Nazo no Murasamejou (Spinner8, V1.00)

    • Metroid (AlanMidas, V1.02)



    *Cosmo Genesis was released in the US as Star Voyager, however the patch was made because the author did not know this at the time.  For sake of completion, it is included in this list.

    **Rockman 2 was released in the US as Megaman 2, however the patch was made because the author needed to prove to himself that he could do translations after four previous failures.  This game is included in the list of sake of completion.

    ***Known as Castlevania 3 in the US.  The Japanese version was better than the American one, so a patch of that version was released.

I would start by adding the famicom and FDS translations from this site, if anyone didn't know of it.  He's the guy that translated Cave Story:

Yes, I think it's a great idea by the way, as I don't know of a comprehensive list and it would be really great to have one, so long as it mentions where to find them.  I imagine there are tons on TRHDB but many are incomplete:

I'll start right now.  Feel free to contribute.  The list will be in the first post, and the staff has my permission to edit the first post to add fan translations.

Metroid can't be on the list, because it was officially released in America at some point, as for the others, I don't know :P

Also,  I don't think that Rockman 2 or Cosmo Genesis should be in there,  because Rockman 2 was more of a personal project that the translator did to prove himself.  If you went to other translation sites, you'd probably find a bunch of those, and Cosmo Genesis is the translator's own error.

MOTHER was officially translated.  However, the ROM was released by a fan translation group.  Since they didn't actually translate the game, it's not on the list.

They're both translations into English, therefore they're on the list.  Also, the FDS version of Metroid is better because of the save feature, so that version was translated.

For Mother, I'll use your own words against you :P  It's a translation into English.  Someone had to translate it, even if they didn't release it, it was still eventually released by someone else.

Right, but this thread is FAN translations.  MOTHER was translated by Nintendo, which is NOT a fan group.  The game still could've been officially released stateside in the early 90's by Nintendo, and not by a bunch of hacker guys who liked the Japanese version.

This is really the way to go.  It's the most complete list (and I believe you can filter the list based on project status).  The site is down right now because their host's VPS software was hacked.  The admin there said the site should be back in (in some capacity) today or tomorrow.

Blue Protoman

But still, I started the list here so I may as well complete it.
