The current version of Wine is 3.5 and WineBottler has (afaik) not been supported for many years. 1.6.1 was released 5 years ago and Wine has progressed *significantly* since then.
What I currently do is as follows:
1. Download the official distribution from https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/macosx/download.html (I am a dev release maintainer for the project so I typically download the latest development tarball)
2. If using the tarball, unzip somewhere (I suggest your Desktop for the time being). In the newly created usr/ folder there will be bin/wine. This is the executable.
3. In your Terminal, first cd to the directory with the .exe file. Then run the following:
LANG="ja_JP" ~/Desktop/usr/bin/wine th06e.exe
where the executable is the relevant executable.
I personally rename the unarchived usr directory to 'wine' and move it into my hard drive under my user profile. This allows me to do the following:
cd ~/Desktop/Touhou\ Windows/Touhou\ 8\ -\ Imperishable\ Night
~/wine/bin/wine th08.exe
In this example I cd (change directory) to the folder where IN's executable is located. Then I run wine (located in ~/wine/bin/wine as noted above) and choose th08.exe as the executable to run. ~ refers to your user directory, where Documents, Desktop, etc. are located.
My directions probably aren't the best, but if this helps you any, I'm glad to be of service.

Edit: Whoa that was one heck of a necropost. Doesn't help that the person who created this thread has been banned for years and obviously can't edit the opening post to provide more up-to-date information.
Thank you for helping me! Yeah, I didn?t really know if I should resurrect this thread or make another, but hey, it?s still on topic I guess?
So here?s exactly what I did, following your instructions:
- Downloaded and installed Wine Stable 3.0, since it seemed like a simpler option to start with
- Tried to run my patched copy of Touhou 11 (right click > open with Wine Stable)
- Installed the two packages it said it needed (I think the first one was mono-something and the second one was Gecko?)
- Started the game and found that it still had framerate issues, albeit slightly less bad than with Winebottler (it?s still completely unplayable because of that)
- Uninstalled Wine Stable (AppCleaner + deleted the hidden .wine configuration folder)
- Downloaded the Tarball for Wine Development (32-bit) version 3.5
- Followed your instructions: cd to the .exe file folder, LANG="ja_JP" ~/Desktop/usr/bin/wine th11e.exe
- Started the game? and somehow its framerate was even worse than before, dipping to 30 FPS and barely reaching 60 at all
So yeah? I?m kind of at a loss. Upon starting the game with Terminal though, a ton of error messages popped up:
