Pokemon HeartGold (JP) v1.5 eng patch.nds

This is Pokemon_Heart_Gold_JPN_NDS-XPA patched with the English 1.5 patch found here: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=215429 Just upping for people who don't have a windows PC or can't get the patcher to work. This allows you to play the JP version with the english story and menu's without freezing. There will be newer patches made but this is the newest he has released so far. -PT works fine on our DSTT with older a07 firmware just fine. Should work almost everything I would think. Read his thread if you want some reports. This way you dont have have to own a cyclo ds or acekard to play the game (USA version). You would need at least a05 firmware for it work with DSTT. Here is the firmware site for DSTT http://www.happydone.com/download.html

What ever happened to no$gba working for DS games.

Are you going to do Soul Silver too? If so, when can we expect it to come?

 poppedtart (2010-03-21)

I can, but like I said the guy is working on translating the pokedex still and i expect next week he will have that done as well. Just didn't want to make people keep redownloading.
Your saves work fine from each patch, at least it did for us, we played 1.0 for a few hours then went to 1.5 and used same .sav file. we have 3 badges and been playing for like 6hrs or so, we had one 1 freeze, but I updated the dstt firmware to the latest and it hasn't happened again. my advice is save your game after each pokemon capture or you finish a dungeon area or something, just to be safe.

Do I need a specific type of hardware to place this on my laptop, or do I need to download some software?

 poppedtart (2010-03-22)

DSEmu or no$gba.
You will probably want a clean rom though for those and might need an AR code. I think this works with no$gba with an AR code, but this prepatched version is meant for play on flashcarts that can't play the US rom due to not having a proper fix yet.

original patcher guy was banned from gbatemp.
there is a new thread started at

and should have an update 2.0 tomorrow according to the thread with the full pokedex and more routes.

Happens to be the exact version i uploaded, just with different tag, soul silver is already done like this as well, available to download from the translator / patcher's website!

 poppedtart (2010-03-22)
