Found any facts or articles that are in Japanese, then send them to shmuplations.com! - ProtoSnake - 10-09-2016
http://shmuplations.com/
Welcome to shmuplations.com!
shmuplations.com is a repository of Japanese game developer translations, covering primarily (but not exclusively) older arcade and console games from the 80s and 90s. Despite the name “shmuplations”, I cover all genres: platformers, rpgs, strategy, vs fighting, and more.
If you enjoy my work, please support shmuplations on patreon!
Look at all the hidden treasure just waiting to be translated! ;)
[email protected]
Here's the link for the games that are already translated to the list. And the other link for the commission game translation list.

If anyone found anything that would be useful to us. Show us it here first, then send it to shmuplations, please.
