      Well, it’s not nontrivial, they won’t just use the existing fan translation, they’d have to do it themselves. I do think they should, but it’s questionable what they’d really get out of that, in terms of financial return.

        You can change your location in the settings and get Japanese games.

              Fingers crossed someone will hack the NSP for it and translate it. Bit of a long shot, though.

                  I mean, that’s basically what all of these are. However the official online titles sometimes have little fixes that aren’t present in regular emulations.

          Not true. It would require Nintendo to make an English translation. The one we have isn’t an official translation.

            Not necessarily; there are a few SNES games in the Switch Online library that weren’t localised and hence remain untranslated from Japanese, namely Super Puyo Puyo 2, Panel de Pon, Mario’s Super Picross, and Kirby’s Star Stacker. Though all of those games are puzzle games, which don’t necessarily need language to be enjoyed, whereas an RPG like Mother 3 would likely be much less enjoyable without understanding the dialogue, battle UI and so on.

        Can’t you just change zone on your Nintendo account and download the Japan app like you could do back in the day? Sure, the game is till in Japanese but you get the game :p
