  • Well, here's another one from the Sandlot back catalog for you! I've been working on this translation with TheMajinZenki and cccmar since early this year, and it's finally ready for release. You can download it over at ROMhacking.net: www.romhacking....
    The advertising blurb:
    In 1999, twelve-year-old Mamoru Oza, heir to the largest fortune in the world, received two gifts from his father. The first: A simple handheld remote controller...which operated the fifty-meter-tall combat robot "Vordan". The second: Ownership of the newly-established Torino Defense Force Co., Ltd, a company formed to combat the "Enigmabots" - mysterious giant robots rampaging through the world's major cities. Remote in hand, Mamoru now finds himself the sole hope of survival for the people of Torino City.
    Can a boy, his robot, and a single remote solve the riddle of the Enigmabots and save the world...without going bankrupt first?
    Remote Control Dandy is a 1999 mecha action game by Human Entertainment for the Sony PlayStation. In a major departure from most mecha games, it hearkens back to giant robot shows of the '50s and '60s such as Tetsujin 28-gou, in which the robots, rather than containing a human pilot, are controlled from afar via remote. The game adopts this as its core mechanic: not only does the player have to contend with remotely navigating their robot in the manner of an RC car, but also personally run after it to keep it in sight, all while not getting stepped on by enemy robots.
    Though the game was nominally developed and published by Human Entertainment (known for the Clock Tower and Fire Pro Wrestling series), Human went bankrupt a few months after its release, with almost all of the game's key staff members subsequently founding the game studio Sandlot and going on to develop the successful Earth Defense Force series. Thus, Remote Control Dandy is essentially the first Sandlot game; it bears all the hallmarks of their unique brand of outsize destruction, and it's received the occasional nod or oblique reference in their later games. Particularly, the 2002 game Robot Alchemic Drive is essentially a spiritual sequel to this one - and Sandlot would even go on to make an actual Tetsujin 28-gou game!
    This patch fully translates the game into English. Aside from the text, subtitles have been added to scenes which were originally voice-only, and all in-level textures such as billboards are also translated (the ones that were legible, anyway). The only thing not translated is the downloadable PocketStation app, but since it's just a small rock-paper-scissors minigame with no connection to the real game, we hope this omission is forgivable.

    I've played some of this game before, but being able to play it in proper English is excellent! Oddly enough, as well as the spiritual sequel RAD, it got an actual sequel (..sorta) on the PS2 as well, Remote Control Dandy SF. I think it's by different developers, though, and published by Konami of all people
