I only remember hearing about it back in the day, so I don’t think he ended up making the full translation patch, but the proof of concept for Tomato Adventure’s translation patch was actually done by Tomato/Clyde Mandelin, the same guy who made the MOTHER 3 fan translation. This guy is a beast of video game translation and it’s cool to see his work still reaching people. Following the Development of the MOTHER 3 translation was one of my favorite memories from high school https://legendsoflocalization.com/tomato-adventure/
I'm here for the unacknowledged Candy man reference
