They? If memory serves, the project was taken over by a different guy. I know the release thread is over at acmlm and romhacking.net :/

I mean they in a general way.

Other forgotten games are:

-Comix Zone

-The lost Vikings I&II

-Kid Chameleon

And some others that I don't remember right now.

Comix Zone and the Lost Vikings games are damn excellent. God knows how many hours I spent trying to figure out those clever puzzles in the first Lost Vikings game and the annoying ones in the future levels of the second one.

Still haven't beaten the second one...I'm on the very last chapter, trying to beat Tomator with Olaf but I kinda stopped playing for some reason. I need to go back and play some more...

Not sure if I mentioned it before, but Itadaki Street is an awesome series that needs to be localized. It's basically monopoly and the stock market on crack--you invest money into spaces you buy, and try to get as much money from the other four players as well. To help with funds outside of property, you may cycle around the board once, getting four symbols, and return to the center bank to level up, giving you more funds. Landing on some squares also reveal cards, which affects the game, such as blowing up houses, whisking players to a wedding, winning the lottery, amongst other thing. The recent series on the PS2, PSP, and DS intergrate Mario, Final Fantasy, and Dragon Quest into the game as well--the Famicom and Super Famicom titles aren't as cameo-friendly (although Slime does make appearances in the Super Famicom game). The game was somewhat included in Dragon Quest III, that board minigame.

It really deserves some love in other countries.

Wait, this was the basis for the Pachisi tracks?

Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean

Super Robot Taisen (OG 1 is the only one I've played so far, and only that and OG2 are even translated)

No More Heroes

Parasite Eve

...I'll get back to you when I think of more.

Actually, there is a translation for Super Robot Wars 3 on the SNES made by AGTP. It's considered to be one of the best and hardest of the whole series.
