== Current progress ==
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.


* Translation: 95%
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.
