I first played the SNES version in about 1995 , a friend lent it to me. I hated it
Years later I got Ys 3 for the Duo and I loved it. I played and beat that one before 1 & 2 so I didnt know it was pronounced EASE . Me and my buddies that always called it WISE still call it that. Nostalgia, plus it sounds cooler.
I'm with you man.
I also still call the Street Fighter character Rye-Ooo and will never stop.
Whatever floats your boat.
EESE. GEESE without the "g"
NOTE: Guess what game I called "CHEENAH WARRIOR" for months. Granted, an idiot at school told me that was the pronunciation and I believed him (this was before Genesis/TG-16 had launched). But still...
Y'''s fom yor gwave!!
Mispronouncing English words when you're natively English is pretty hardcore I must say... =D>
Seriously though, being natively French speaking I pronounce them a little different than you guys so who am I to judge? You'd laugh at how I'm saying Neutopia & Psychosis :lol:
I didnt know y's was meant to be eeeeees til i joined this forum. Though my only experience of that series is one i have for master system

You have to tell us. BETTER YET, record it (audio) and let us be entertained. I'll host the file if you'd like (PM).

I think my best bud would love the Ys series, But he only ever played that cursed SNES game and never gave any of the other games a fair shake. I should force him to play the Steam versions sometimes.
On topic, I never mispronounced Ys since the first time I hears about it was in a magazine long ago who in the first sentence told you how to pronounce it. Ryu, on the other hand... I know how it's supposed to sound. When speaking, I even pronounce it as correctly as my gaijin accent will allow, but I still read it in my head as Rye-Yoo.

ZEE KOH ZEE (Psychosis) :pcgs:
lucky me I'm coming from a country which in most of the cases pronounces/reads japanese words written in latin alphabet (romaji) just like the japanese equivalent almost non-distortion/-deformed.
ancient wise is vanished.
I'm with you. mutiple yyyyyyys all the way.
Pronounce wise and insert apostrophe in the name: WIN.
I pronounce it as why-uh-pos-truh-fee-ess. :mrgreen:
I say eese because that's how you say it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ys
It was a thing/real word before Ys was a video game.
So, all of you mispronouncing it are retards! BWAHAHHAHAHH
:)
I'm good on Ease, but I still say Gray-dius instead of Grah-dius.
Go home Mzo, you're drunk.
Actually, I do that too. I was at a store a while back that had a copy of Graidus 3 SNES that I wanted. So I go to tell the owner what game I wanted and I had a brief thought: Was it supposed to be Graydius or Grahdius? I have no idea, and if I pronounce it wrong he's going to make fun of me when I leave! "Can you believe that guy? He said GRAYDIUS! HAHAHAHA!"
I call the game Gaydius because I hate that game.
most people around me say "graydius" or "gradius" as in, graduation or something.
there's none of this grahhhhhdius orgasm sound crap.
grah-dee-us (us like oos) (グラディウス/Guradiusu)
Being able to see a game name in Japanese helps a lot with pronunciation. Assuming you can read the Japanese of course.

It's so HUGE, it impossibly can be unwatched!

And it's not even as big as PunkCryborg's, and I don't see you poking at him. Granted, Wonder Momo is far sexier than Kagekiyo. :lol:
What are you talking about. He's got long flowing locks, and an air-tight grip.
what else could you want.
