Well.. Another, perhaps simpler, way (especcially if you can't write japanese, like me), is to edit the text graphic into letters and symbols first, then making a table file and, by using the edited rom along with the original one, translate each line of dialouge by reading it in the original, checking what gibberish the character spout in the roman letter version you created, and then changing it around in a hex editor.
I suck at explainig things, btw. Hopefully you understood what I meant. |

also you might want to check out right about here: http://members.aol.com/writejapan/, it has Katakana, Hiragana, and some Kanji characters.
Nice and easy way to do this, i was messing with Grand Master (J) last night: opened the pattern table viewer, matched up the letters on the screen with their pattern table value equivilants and wrote them down:
A2,C5,C6,F3,C0,A4,A0
simple search in a hex editor, and found it

then changed it.. as i currently cannot read japanese to something a little less accurate:

Translhextion will handle hiragana and katakana correctly.
Another option is, once you figure out which codes correspond to which kana, to create a table using romanized kana so that you don't have to worry about font issues. |

Heres a little warning.I went on www.zophar.net/tech/transdocs.html and clicked on 6502 Microprocessor.the page opened about the 6502 Microprocessor thing.But then the page redirected me to another site and my anti-virus program warned me of a virus.My anti-virus said it was a JS/Psyme virus. |

Ringo, if you don't know the answers, or can't give a sufficiently helpful answer, don't post. You're not being helpful at all. |

If you want to work with a good Programm here:
http://snesedit.romhack.de/se/download/se098201_Basis.zip
You can use it in german or in English!
With the program you can use Katana and Hiragana!
have fun |

What moronic answers. He is trying to translate the game, probably into English. That would mean there is no English version of the game.
To answer your question, yedsfaq, you should probably start with a relative search program. There are a few different ones available from zophar.net (and even a few hex editors available with relsearch features) There are also some documents available which can help you get started. Go here for those: http://www.zophar.net/tech/transdocs.html
Specifically, I recommend checking out this page, which shows you one way to use a relsearch to find Japanese text: http://www.zophar.net/tech/files/translate.html |

Then view the text in Japanese. Or get the English version of the game. |

Do a full text search of the rom with a hex editor... use a key word from what you want to edit and go from there. |
