It looks something like this:

This is a stand-alone patching program which will translate Rockman2 Neta (linked below) into the English "Rockman2 Boss Battle Extravaganza Thing."  Everything has been translated: intro, ending, menus, error messages, you name it.  Also included, just for fun, are a few "bonus" patches for a little extra challenge (optional, of course).

As you play, you will unlock little extras to help you out.

You'll have to play it yourself to see what you get.

As long as you don't mess around with the files, you probably won't see any error messages.  But I translated them anyway.
