Nope. People are still trying to find a way to extract and emulate these kinds of mobile games. The problem is, there is no documentation on how to do those things. Finding a phone with the game on it is difficult as well.

There's a video that explains how that kind of games used to work, it even features this game: youtu.be/tKH0x21rj1YI'm afraid is currently not possible to rip and emulate those kind of games, they probably won't even work because the service is no longer available.

5 Islands don't depend on the service; it's downloadable and doesn't have any connectivity that would require a connection to the i-mode service. All it needs is its phone's custom SIM card to function. Also, the i-mode game service isn't dead yet (it dies November of this year.) You might be thinking of Capcom Keitai, which distributed the Rockman games. That's 100% six feet under. Basically, you can't buy 5 Islands anymore, but you can still play it on the phone it was originally downloaded to.

Ah I see, thank you for clarifying that tho. I guess for now the English dubbed vids of it will have to do ^_^ Honestly I was thinking of a project involving the game. Pm me and I'll lyk more about that. 5 Islands don't depend on the service; it's downloadable and doesn't have any connectivity that would require a connection to the i-mode service.

Aren't you the guy making the MegaMan Legends Anime?

Nope, Abeth is making that. You can see their thread here. I'm the guy who made the LEGO Flutter and is doing scanlation projects of two Legends materials, along with other stuff.

Ah yes I see now lol well congrats now you guys got me obsessed with 5 island adventure. Watching the English dub on YouTube rn! I'll let you in on a little secret. I'm a pretty good game designer and ngl, I wanna tackle remaking this game. Especially if we can't emulate it.

There is still hope then, the only pieces missing are securing a phone with the game installed (probably a little hard because some Japanese folks are against game preservation, they consider it as piracy if I remember correctly) then ripping the game files and after that coding an emulator, it's a lot of work and probably lots of money are involved in the process but there's a possibility to achieve it some time in the future.

Yeah, you nailed the pieces to the puzzle! There is someone coding an emulator for these types of phones.
