What is this game about?
------------------------
Nekketu Hockey (better known as Technos Ice Hockey) is a game in the same
series as River City Ransom, World Cup Soccer, and Super Dodgeball.  They're
all about a guy named Kunio and his friends, who go to Nekketu (Hot-Blooded)
High School.  This game is different from other hockey games in that you can
bash your opponents all you want and use powered-up Super Shots like in
Dodgeball.  The teams you play are players from other sports.  As you beat
them, you get to wear their uniforms, which have attack/defense attributes
and special powers (think Rockman).

Special Note:  Here and there in the script, there are references to "tako."
For those who don't know, "tako" is Japanese for octopus.  It eventually
becomes kind of a battle cry/insulting term for the members of the team.


Who worked on this project?
---------------------------
Zero: ROM hacking, graphics, translation
Moose M: translation


Wait...didn't somebody already translate this game?
---------------------------------------------------
Yes and no.  TransBRC released an "english" patch for the game, but it was
not a translation.  We at dct didn't even hear about TransBRC's patch until
we already had a lot of work done on ours, so we decided to continue our work.


How do I use this patch?
------------------------
Get SNESTool.  Run it.  Choose "Use IPS."  Select our patch.  Select the
unpatched Japanese Nekketu Hockey ROM.  Boom.  Done.

EMULATION NOTE:  Nesticle does not play the title screen music.  If you want
to hear it, use FWNES, BIONES, Loopynes, etc.


Can you send me roms?
---------------------
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, and no.  So don't ask.
