Worst moments in videogame translating

[the7k]

I remember Final Fantasy Tactics having a very poorly translated script.

I forgave it, though, because the story was probably the best story I've ever seen come out of Square.

Mega Man X6 was FULL of these:
"ZELLLLO!"
"DIE XXX! JUSDIE X!"

For those particular translations, Sigma was fucked up and the text was supposed to reflect that. Funny still.

I have located some plastic explosive.

I've always liked it that The Beginning of Symphony of the Night apparently takes place in Bloodlines.

I've always liked I feel asleep.

I know what to get you for Christmas :

[GagaMan]

This one always cracks me up.

^ That Battle Rangers one is great!


I always used to get a laugh out of Captain America and the Avengers in the arcades.

"You cannot escape!" followed by "You will be the one escaping!"

or "Why should it goes well?"

Spoony bard was good considering at the time they probably couldn't properly translate "kisama" without getting in trouble.

"Kisama" is just somewhere along the lines of "bastard" or "fool" in a very condescending tone. No trouble there.

I thought it was "son of a b****"

The Harvest Moon games are well known for bad translations. You say yes when you want to say no and say no when saying yes. It's a mess

Harvest Moon takes place on Moonside?
