I've started doing a TAS of SD-Snatcher. I thought I'd announce it so if I do anything wrong, I can fix it before I do too much work on it. :-) I'm using the English version of the game. The text can be fast-forwarded but not skipped, so this does make a real difference. This version doesn't seem to work on the Panasonic, so I'm using the Philips NMS 8250 (I'm guessing it requires a 50Hz machine). I'm avoiding all monsters and fighting only the bosses. I still need to find out how to best spend my money; currently I've bought bombs to throw at the Army Bear, because due to lack of experience it takes ages to fight it with the blaster. After the third boss (the metal creatures with the girl) I'm levelling up a lot, so hopefullly that's enough. Any tips or offers to help are appreciated. :-)

I think it's more common to use the original game (which will work on the Panasonic)... usually translations are not allowed or at least not recommended! (Haven't checked the rules, please do...)
