Hey all, I dumped this one a few months ago for the purpose of a Youtube video but wasn't really sure how to distribute it. I am about 100% certain this is dumped already but am posting this here for others that have had difficulty tracking the rom down like I did.
This is a mapper hack of Waixing's Fire Emblem. It's from a modern repro cart purchased from Taobao and dumped using GB64. (Amusingly, the rom's name defaulted as Bokujou 2 / Harvest Moon 2.)
Not too much to say about this one. It's a port of Fire Emblem Gaiden for NES and does the job decently despite some stripped features & characters. The music, however,is pretty terrible. It's not quite Makon Soft bad but there are very few tracks and they get grating quickly.

Thank you. Most of Waixing's games were made by Hitek, who used the header name from Harvest Moon 2 for all of their games

Interesting, I assumed it was a quirk of the mapper hacking. I guess they just recycled the header from their Harvest Moon 2 translation.
Hi-Tek's involvement also helps explain the relatively decent quality of the port.
