Today we begin a new feature series that takes a look at the various fan translation projects that remain uncompleted. First up is one of the most wanted: Sega’s Surging Aura, a great RPG with all sorts of great things going for it…except its massive amount of Japanese text. Why has this potential classic never been localized? Why hasn’t anyone jumped all over the chance to translate it? Why are you still on the main page?

How many of us grew up playing the Ninja Turtles arcade and NES games? Seriously, these wonderful games were a major part of many gamer’s diet back in the early ’90s, and it was always exciting to see home versions released. Imagine the excitement then, when Konami announced a classic Turtles beat-’em-up for the Genesis! Thing was, it was a little too classic, and it depended a bit too much on previous outings. Still, it was the Turtles on the Genesis, and gamers enjoyed the chance to beat down Shredder and the Foot Clan on their console. Was it worth the wait though?
Every gamer has had a game that simply took him to task. Mind-bending difficulty, a nasty boss – all of them were enough to make a person rip out his hair. Thank goodness for Galoob’s Game Genie! A neat little game enhancer that had limited converter cart abilities in addition to thousands of codes for hundreds of games, its functionality is only equalled by its versatility. Fourteen years after its release, gamers are still coming up with new codes. How’s that for staying power?
