Bomberman Jetters: Densetsu no Bomberman (The Legendary Bomberman) / Saturn Bomberman Fight!! ENG Patches
Not our work by any means, but this is definitely worth sharing. English patches have been completed for two Japan-only games and are available for download!
💣 Saturn Bomberman Fight!! Released in 1997, Saturn Bomberman Fight!! was one of Hudson Soft's many (maaaaany) attempts at messing with the bomberformula. The game's Story Mode features up to 14(!) playable characters, all with their own routes and unique dialogue. Also there was a commercial featuring Segata Sanshiro judo throwing someone so hard they explode, which I don't know why that wasn't reason enough to localize this thing.
(Sure, there's no explosive judo throwing in the game as far as I know/remember, but localization should have been done just to give kudos. Obvi.)

💣 Bomberman Jetters: Densetsu no Bomberman (The Legendary Bomberman) This little RPG dropped a couple of months after the original debut of the anime in 2002, telling the story of Mighty's final mission on Nonbiri. If you've played Bomberman Tournament, this game will slap your face with extreme deja vu, right down to the Pokeboms. I mean, Charamons. I mean...yeah, no, I meant every word of that overplayed joke because I am volcanically uncool.
(I played a ROM of this back in college using an ASCII walkthrough I printed out and never thought anyone would care enough to even provide a translated script, let alone make a playable translation. This is a dark timeline with tiny little explosions of joy and hope.)

PLEASE NOTE that I am woefully unfamiliar with modern emulation, so if something goes bork bork with one of these things I'm entirely useless. I'm just here to spread some obscure bomberlove. ❤️💥
