Before you read

Thanks for stopping by! Things aren't quite done yet! I'll be continuing to work on this. If you have never played Shiren the Wanderer before, I think the SFC version is the great to start out with. You should play it!

Overview

This is a wiki for "Mystery Dungeon 2: Shiren the Wanderer" for the Super Famicom, maintained by Zoiteki. I wanted to make a well-documented guide specifically for the SFC version because I think this game is something truly special.

While never released officially outside of Japan, there is a English Translation patch created by Aeon Genesis. The terminology used in this wiki will prefer to use the names and terms used in the patch, even though they are "unofficial".

It should be noted there are significant changes between the SFC version of Shiren the Wanderer and the DS/Mobile versions. The changes are so drastic, it's more of rebalancing, with additional content. If you are looking for information regarding Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer for the Nintendo DS, you should look at https://sharksnack.github.io/shiren-ds1/ maintained by SharkSnack.

A large portion of the information gathered for this wiki is gathered from the Japanese unofficial strategy wiki here: https://seesaawiki.jp/shiren1/. The template and format of this guide I borrowed from SharkSnack's other Shiren the Wanderer wiki pages, which are all great.
