Hack description

Taken from this post on the Metroid Construction forums.

The Japanese version of Metroid Fusion had some changes done compared to the North American and European releases of the game. The two most notable changes were the inclusion of a Hard difficulty mode and the extra ending images. These IPS patches will force the Japanese version of the game to display text in the language of the IPS patch chosen.

When choosing the option "オトナむき(漢字あり)" the difficulties will be displayed in English.
When choosing the option "コドモむき(ひらがな)" the difficulties with be in the same order, but instead listed in Hiragana.

A simple and fantastic hack!Serbagz2021-08-23Version 1.0

Fantastic, does exactly what it set out to do. I didn't even know the extra official Hard Mode and endings existed! Having a ton of fun replaying the game. The only complaint as with the other review is the text for actually picking a difficulty being Japanese but that does not hinder the core game in any way. Definitely recommend to any hardcore Metroid fan that wants to play the game again before Dread.

It could use a little room for improvement and remove ALL Japanese text, but for what it is, it does the job. Thank yoU!
