Oh man I almost fell off my chair when I saw this. I thought "Victoly" was pretty bad in Samurai Shodown 4, but I think this one is better. I was playing against my boy, and we got a double KO when the text "Double Fatarity" popped up on the screen. LOL Doesn't anybody proof this stuff before it goes to production??

Peace,
Bill

For the Japanese, R = L... That simple.

I'm sure Fatarity was in plenty of other Sam Shos.

I was always under the impression they did it that way on purpose to be funny. I mean, it's not like those are uncommon words or anything.

I believe the first one says "Double Fatality" I havent played enough of the others to ever see anything live that though!! That would be a pretty funny thing to see during a few rounds with mates!!:D

I think some of the engrish is intentional like for instance when you complete samurai shodown instead of saying congratulations it says congraturation and if you were ever to hear a japanese person say the word congratulation they cant allways prononuce the L as El capitan stated so it sounds like congraturation :)
