r/SwitchEmulating

Hey all!

The game came out back in June, Japan only, and being a card game it's basically wall to wall rules text. My Japanese isn't anywhere near good enough for that, lol, so instead of waiting to see if a localisation ever happens I put together a translation patch. English and Spanish, both done, including the artwork that has text painted into it.

Being upfront about how it was made: I had an LLM do the translating against a glossary of the proper terms (Robattle, Medaforce, Tinpet and so on), then played through the whole game to catch whatever came out broken. It's good enough to actually sit down and enjoy the game, but it isn't a real localisation, so go in expecting the odd clunky line. If you spot one it's a quick fix and everyone gets it.

It runs on emulator or on a modified Switch, works on both Kabuto and Kuwagata, and it patches your own dump. It's also set up so anyone can add their own language without touching code, if someone fancies doing French or Portuguese.

Thanks! Hope someone else finally gets to play this thing.

Everyone on this group says that the PR 3905 works the best for LTD but https://git.eden-emu.dev/ decides to f*ck it and deleted the mirror (you can try downloading it at https://git.eden-emu.dev/eden-ci/pr/releases/tag/3905-6c6f5ed568 but you'll soon find out that you can't). So i look at the Github Workflows and found a working mirror (it expired now sadly). So i share this archive for anybody who can't find a working link: https://archive.org/details/20260721_20260721_0401 (don't mind my username, i forgot to change it) (for SEO: If you're searching for Eden PR 3905 download, Build 3905 (6c6f5ed568), or a working mirror for Eden Emulator PR 3905, this Archive.org mirror should still work.)

edit: the reason why it got deleted is because old builds are purged every month
