You are the idiots of foolishness.

Also, don't forget about Victreebel. I'm pretty sure bell has two ls. (Not so bad, though.)
I don't get why they didn't just change one of the unused tiles to something like 'OR' for Feraligatr.

Don't forget the first part of that quote, which is actually something like "VIOLATOR AND SUBJECT TO PENALTIES...."

Well, with Victreebel, I think they just ran out of space - although, putting one character for two L's shouldn't be that hard. An OR would probably be a tad harder.

And MBD: I think the Earl thing was intentional. I hope.

Something odd that happened after I'd completed about 20 or so missions in Advance Wars 2...
Spoiler:
This isn't really that bad, but...somehow, "Vintage Sensei" just doesn't sound right.


(edit: It seems that spoiler tags don't hide hyperlinks or images properly. )

sorta like how FARFETCH'D uses that special 'D character that only the game can acess from the "font table", it's not chooseable from the bnameing screen. So if you ever wanted to fix a nicknamed FARFETHC'D you'd be out of luck but I don't see why they couldn't have done something similar, you're right.

I have one that is grand, this is from the PS1 version of Final Fantasy 2

Gus: "You coming with us.
We want you come."

I titled that one "All your base are belong to Gus"

More screenshots from GBA LttP...


"...of the Hylia"? I think they meant "...of the Hylians". (Actually, I probably wouldn't've considered this one worthy of mention if it weren't from the GBA version. )


The "Its chill magic blasts the air!" part just sounds so wrong that they must have fucked it up somehow...

A couple more from GBA LttP:


I'm pretty sure they meant "out of nowhere"...


Somehow, their use of the word "instead" here just doesn't sound right. (edit: Also... "issue forth" doesn't sound right either.)

Edit: And wasn't it "Cossack", with an extra C?

Here's one from Sonic Battle:

(by the way, that's a message you get whenever you complete an "episode")
This one pretty much speaks for itself.

Here's one from Zelda: Link's Awakening:

What the hell does the -'n suffix mean?

Oh, it's not a mistranslation per se, but I find it amusing that Nintendo allowed the line "YOU DAMN FOOL", yet somehow decided that stopping the Nazis from reviving Hitler was just too much for little kids, in Bionic Commando (So instead you stop the Badds from reviving Master D. Even more amusing is that they didn't bother editing the Hitler graphic at all, so this bit of censorship meant almost nothing).

Some more from GBA LttP...


"Go back"? Link is already in bed.


This just doesn't look right with the "But lo!" part in there. Maybe it's because it almost looks like "But lol".
