I heard of this in another topic and thought it deserved it's own.
Retro Uprising - Arcade - Pokemon Green (http://retrouprising.com/game-menu/game/7783/)
The translation is awful. Here are some quotes I enjoyed.
"boys should go to travel whenever he likes. H'm! ... It is said in TV!"
"Grandpa! and others are very tired!"
"The PET strepped on the water is dependent on the tortoise?"

"Grandpa! and others are very tired!"
I like that one.:lol: I love seeing poor translations as well. I think it adds some perspective to how these games were made back then. I haven't heard of this in modern games, too many testers.

Now you know why Green was never released as a separate entity. We got Blue instead and frankly, I agree poor translations are funny.

Green was never released because all 151 could be caught in it and I believe Gamefreak wanted to profit and get people to buy both.

Not really. This is Green we're talking about. The only game GameFreak would allow you to catch all 151 doesn't belong here, does it? This is why we have Yellow.

Here's the thing, Japanese Red and Green versions are not equivalent to Red and Blue.
What we got is two versions of Japanese Blue, which was improved in terms of graphics and features.

That's something else entirely.

We have Yellow because it's a nudge towards the anime. Green was the odd duck sicne it could catch them all in one version. We never got the Red/Green of Japan we got the updated version with better gfx than that.

The first 2 Pokemon games were released only in Japan. They were known as Red and Green. A couple of years later, Japan got Pokemon Blue, an updated version of the original games with better graphics and sound. Our Red and Blue versions are built off of the Japanese Blue's engine, with the lists of exclusive Pokemon coming from Red and Green. So there are actually 4 generation 1 games in Japan. Each version does have exclusive pokemon, so you can't catch 'em all in any of the games without trading.

Anyway... this translation is one of the funniest things I've seen on this site in a long time. "The creature named PET was treated as a pet to take part in the completion! And I'm doing a study of this pet. That is all." :laugh:

Yes, that's true. But if Nintendo didn't want people to do outlandish things to get them all, they wouldn't have slots for the GameShark.

I've been meaning to ask you, what does gfx mean?

Tenser's right. I recognized it when I first joined RU. Anyway, no matter how you look at it, there were aspects of all the games in the anime, not just Green.

So, you agreed when tails said it, but when I said it, there was something wrong.
I see a fundamental flaw in that logic, fenrir.

Okay, I'll admit I contradicted myself. I'm not vain enough to keep going on that.

"BECOME HARD" If someone has to tell you to become hard, it isn't worth it.
