@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

I agree with Joe, USA names rock the Japanese ones! Plus New Adventure Island is way easier to say than that mouthful Japanese name.  :mrgreen:

But even Japan uses a lot of English in their society.  It's required in their schools.  Why?  Because English rocks your world like no other language.  It is the best language on the planet.

wrong, there isn't anything better than "swiss german". once you mastered it, you may understand!

beside of that, the japanese people can't speak/write one word english the right way! believe me, this country is the absolut "english-less country"!

French is OK too actually. It's funny 'cus when you speak French you actually move your hands differently. It changes the way you portray yourself. Very strange. I guess every language will do that though.

I don't know about 'swiss german', but it's hard to beat the german language.  It's just sounds so beautiful and poetic.

All are equally miles off.

By the way, it's not in an obscure or hard to get to place in the game.

I'm surprised this has lasted this long, it's not exactly hard to spot in the game it comes from and it isn't obscure at all. Still, hehehe keep guessing  :twisted:

That one IREM game.  I forget what it is called even though I own it.  I rarely play it though and it has music that sounds like an Atari 2600.  What is it????  You run around, jump and shoot lots of things.  It even came out in the US.  God damn it what is that game called??????  AH!  Legend of Hero Tonma.  Not exactly a memorable name.  Anyway that is what the game is.

ccovell

Great.  But that is not what the answer is.
