Emulation Status:
Well, if NESTICLE will run it, I think almost anything will. :)
*********************************************

What's done:
 - Everything.

What's not so good:
 - Some minor palette issues with long words (the original Japanese only allowed 7 kana
   for the Japanese clues. I expanded it to 16 letters, but couldn't find the palette name
   table data to fix the color of letters after the 7th.
*********************************************
How to patch (Windows, sorry non-Windows users. I succumbed.):
 - Download this zip file.
 - Download the game ROM. (I won't provide this. You find it.)
 - Download IPSWin 2.0 from somewhere (www.zophar.net might have it, but no guarantees. Look for "Utilities").
 - Open IPSWin 2.0, click the little folder thing in the first box. 
   Choose the original Japanese ROM.
   Choose the IPS patch in the lower text box in the same manner. Click Patch. Enjoy!
