Welcome! This is the information page for the Medarot 1 Translation Project.
The M1 patch is completed and playable, but occasionally will receive text updates for typos and inconsistencies.


The goal of this project is to release a patch to translate the original GB Medarot game completely into English, using the original Japanese names and terminology. The project was announced in June 2015, and is currently '''in progress'''.

== Current progress ==
ES is a Spanish translation


* Translation: 70%
All versions have a regular IPS file and a Portrait IPS file:
* Editing: 10%
* Regular IPS files are just like the original game.
* Coding: 50%
* Portrait patches insert portraits from Medarot 1 Perfect Edition for the WonderSwan.


We are considering making a "preview" patch once we iron out some bugs with the battle screens.
Both versions should work, but the Portrait versions still require quality-checking to make sure the portraits are in the correct spot.

You can use something like LunarIPS or an online JavaScript patcher like [https://vxyz.me/rompatcher/ this] to patch the ROM. The games must be the v1.1/Rev.A versions.

The M1 patch is completed and playable, but occasionally will receive text updates for typos and inconsistencies.

(This page does not get updated often, please refer to the project repository).

Latest releases can be found here in the format <PATCH VERSION>+<LANGUAGE CODE>[[.txt.<TEXT VERSION>]], there are several language options:

EN is using traditional JP terms (Medarot, Robottle, Medarotter, RoboRobo, etc...)

EN-US is using localized terms (Medabot, Robattle, Medafighters, Rubberobo, etc...)

ES is a Spanish translation

All versions have a regular IPS file and a Portrait IPS file:

  • Regular IPS files are just like the original game.
  • Portrait patches insert portraits from Medarot 1 Perfect Edition for the WonderSwan.

Both versions should work, but the Portrait versions still require quality-checking to make sure the portraits are in the correct spot.

You can use something like LunarIPS or an online JavaScript patcher like this to patch the ROM. The games must be the v1.1/Rev.A versions.
