Zenny free Rockboard translation patch

This article is over 16 years old and may contain outdated information

Back on the Famicom, Capcom developed a Mega Man party game. However, Wily & Light's Rockboard: That's Paradise!! isn’t a mini-game collection like Mario Party. Rockboard shares more in common with Monopoly or Enix’s Itadaki Street series. You roll dice, move on a board, purchase properties and make bets to collect the most Zenny. While familiar faces from the Mega Man series like Roll, Dr. Cossack (!) and Wily appear in the game, Rockboard is an obscure entry in Mega Man’s long linage. Probably because Capcom chose not to localize it and the language barrier prevented it from being a popular import.
