NeoRHDN - Translations - Translation Information

Toujin Makyou Den: Heracles no Eikou
Nintendo Entertainment System
Game Description
The first entry in Data East's role-playing game series commonly known as Glory of Heracles in the west. While most RPGs at the time opted for a medieval sword and sorcery setting as had been popularized by Dragon Quest, this series instead themes itself around Greek mythology, with Heracles being a prominent figure in most entries as the series' name implies.
Translation Description
The game is fully translated and playable with a script edited to make sure the player has the hints that any normal person would need vs. the lack of decent hints that the poor Japanese kids had to deal with.

There are no abbreviations on any items or equipment, just expanded item names with either squishy tiles or icons.

Along with the translated ROM, a fully translated manual with text inserted back into the scans of the actual manual is available on the DvD Translations website.

Requires the use of ROM Expander Pro to expand the ROM before the IPS patch is applied. This original game was released with 2 slightly different UxROM mapper chips in '87 and '88. The same patch works for both of them. Rev B is simply a hacking change. It modifies the hack so that the game can be played on real hardware and on modern emulators.

Even with all that, only serious RPG players need apply. This is real old school stuff, and not for the casual crowd Nintendo was marketing GoH 5 to. But, if you like the old ones, this might just be the game you are looking for.
