KENZAN! EN YOUTUBE WALKTHROUGH

The link for Kenzan! has been updated for a much more reliable and better rom-hosting site. Click on the link above for Kenzan! and simply search "kenzan" and it will be the first and only result.

Both games run perfectly on PCXS2 and RPCS3 respectively. Yakuza 2 comes with 16:9 support in the options menu and you need very little tweaking to get both games to look good. Kenzan! is the only one that might have slight graphical bugs but they're very minor.

In the case of Yakuza 2, if you want to upscale it I'd recommend only doing so to 720p as any higher will cause more graphical bugs, albeit very minor, but it is up to you. The only bugs I could tell from upscaling it are images that get displayed in cutscenes having lines in them (This I do not know how to fix) and the game being slightly cut off at the bottom and the right side of the screen. To fix that, you would go to the same menu in PCXS2 where you changed the resolution, titled "Crop". All you have to do is change the cropped pixel amount for the bottom and right side by 1 pixel. After that you should be fine. As for increasing the framerate of the game I wouldn't know, a friend of mine tried using a patch to increase the cap from 30 but it didn't work. I'd advise you wouldn't do it anyways as it might break some aspects of the game.

Kenzan!'s Case is just as simple, again all you really need to do is upscale the game from its original resolution to your liking. If you do this, DO NOT CHANGE THE DEFAULT RESOLUTION FROM 720P. If you want to upscale the game, use the 2 options below it in the "GPU" settings in RPCS3. The two settings below default resolution should be "Resolution Scale (Disable Strict Mode)" and "Resolution Scale Threshold", these are the ones you want to increase from 720p. For scale, you can set it to basically whatever you want, but setting it from anything higher than I believe 1080 will give you minor graphical bugs, like red pixels on certain areas of the game (I set mine to 1440 resolution and that's where I see them the most). Scale threshold I would recommend setting it to 510 x 510, I don't believe there are any bugs that come from that. Everything else I believe should be perfectly fine to get the game running, like I said, Kenzan! is not a very difficult game to run.

The JP guide for Kenzan! is a bit better than the EN one with the exception of it being in only Japanese. The site should be able to auto-translate though and both guides have every single substory/piece of side content listed. There should be an English translation mod for Kenzan! coming out soon, and when it does I'll update this list to include it and how to install it
