Zoinkity is back at it, with the help of Whowasphone404 for the translation itself, the english translation patch of Dezaemon 3D, the Nintendo 64 shoot ‘em up maker by Athena, is now released!
You can find it in the Games page, in Translations tab. Unlike most things on this website, you can notice it is actually a Nintendo 64 cartridge title this time, but this has heavy use of the 64DD and N64 Mouse to unlock its full potential, I would actually recommend using either the unreleased Dezaemon 3D disk, or using the provided tool by Zoinkity alongside the patch that can actually create and manage Dezaemon 3D 64DD disks, to make even better games with it and unlock its full potential.
There’s also a page with Dezaemon 3D Tips if you want them, and the readme includes even more information to enjoy Dezaemon 3D.
Zoinkity has also uploaded (slightly outdated) videos of the lengthy and fully translated tutorials of the game, which you can also look with the translation if you want to more easily skip around: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL7VAoXQYoWiC6zfJajZvy7vcM_YWj7JiD
This is legit exciting to me. Dezaemon 3D was actually the first N64 game released that supports 64DD expansions, as well as the N64 Mouse, way before any other game. It might be very daunting to use, some of it is definitely more complicated than it should be, but it has a lot of potential, definitely look into the sample games.
