Dirge of Cerberus: Lost Episode Resurfaces After 20 Years With a 90-GPU Rescue

A long-lost Final Fantasy VII mobile spin-off, Dirge of Cerberus: Lost Episode, has been recovered and preserved after its authentication servers went offline in 2018. Preservationist Yuvi decrypted encrypted SD-card data using custom OpenCL tools and a massive 90-GPU server farm (about $900), making the title playable again and paving the way for a fan translation. The recovery coincides with director Naoki Hamaguchi confirming that spin-offs like Dirge of Cerberus will be included in Final Fantasy VII Revelation, signaling a broader revival of the Compilation universe.

Two Decades Later, Mother 3 Still Has No Western Release

On the 20th anniversary of Mother 3’s Japan debut, Nintendo has never released the RPG in the West, a decision rooted in a lengthy development cycle, shifting DS-focused resources, and EarthBound’s mixed U.S. reception; a fan translation circulated unofficially and gained traction, and while many fans argue the market is larger today, Nintendo has not provided an official Western localization.

Princess Crown English Patch Dead: A Fan-Translation Fallout

The Princess Crown English patch, a long-running fan translation led by eadmaster and built on work by SamIAm and CyberWarriorX, is officially dead after the original developers announced they would no longer continue. SamIAm and CyberWarriorX stated they’d given up on the project, and a SHIRO Discord post confirms there will be no final English localization, ending years of back-and-forth and angst over the patch.
