General chit-chat thread

Tomato Adventure and Densetsu no Starfy; are two Nintendo published Game Boy Advance games that can be seen as 'cousins' in a way.

Tomato Adventure was released on January 25, 2002 over seven months before Densetsu no Starfy. Both were in development for the Game Boy Color before the Game Boy Advance, and Tomato Adventure was originally known as "Gimmick Land" as a Game Boy Color title.

Clyde Mandelin; translator for Mother 3, worked on translating Tomato Adventure many years ago and he released two proof of concept videos.



Currently, Clyde Mandelin is doing a live stream on Twitch to translate the gist of Tomato Adventure, like how he did some Twitch fan translation work for Yo-Kai Watch in the past.

He has been uploading episodes from the stream on to his Youtube channel.
