ezshine used Claude Opus 5.5 to fully localize the 2004 GBA game Crayon Shin-chan: Densetsu no Omake o Mikke! into Chinese — translated text, translated in-game images redrawn to match the original art style — and got back a complete playable GBA ROM.
- Took about 1 hour total, using only 4% of the weekly quota
- The finished translation runs directly in emulators and is playable on ggemu.com
- A compelling proof-of-concept for frontier models doing full ROM-hack game localization end to end
