Poor video game translations
#1
Post some of the poorest Japanese translations (or Engrish) you have heard in a video game (not Zero Wing please...) . One of mine has to be from a lovely PC Engine game by the name of Download. They seem to curse a fair amount when you die. I've only received a few of the death messages, one being "S***, IS NOT THIS A GREAT BEGINNING." Another one involved f***, but I do not remember it at this time. I'll post it at a later time.

Makes me wonder how much Nintendo's "Seal of Quality" is really worth.

As I understood it the "Seal of Quality" referred to the quality of the cartridge and not the content.

Final Fantasy Tactics, while it was a totally awesome game, was filled with spelling and grammar errors. I don't know what happened with the translation on that game.

Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Battle 22.
They didnt even bother to translate, hence, completely removed Story Mode.

Other than that, Samurai Showdown 4 is one of my favorite games. Ukyo is the shit.
