You will need a Super Nintendo emulator to play Star Ocean. You can download one from my emulators page. If you need assistance with any of the emulators offered on my site, check out my emulation help subsite: Video Game Emulation for Newbies.
What's “Pre-patched” and “Patch”? Fan translators distribute their work as a patch that is meant to be applied to the game. I saved you the trouble and patched the game for you in the “Pre-patched” download button. I know some of you insist on patching the game yourself, so I also provide just the patch via the “Patch” download button. If you need assistance with patching, check out my patching tutorial.
This is Star Ocean pre-patched with the fan-based English translation by DeJap Translations. It's a great game with a quality English translation!
This is the Japanese ROM of the game. I put this here if you insist on patching the game yourself. Of which, the English patch is here for download, too. If you need assistance with patching, check out my patching tutorial.
