It's gotta be Final Fantasy Tactics. Somehow I think that game might be alot less confusing if it were actually translated properly.

Given the ineptitude of the overall translation, it's actually amazing that the story is as understandable as it is. These people couldn't tell "breath" from "bracelet" but somehow managed to convey a harrowing tale of war and deceit without making a complete mess of it.
In FFVII, there is a part where you give the chocobo a Mimett Green in order to obtain the Contain materia. But, Tifa says 'Samolen Greens' instaed of 'Mimett Greens'. VERY big mistranslation.
FFX isnt badly translated at all.
'When I grow up I wanna be a blitzball!'
This typo still amuses me tho
Thank Sapphiresea for the Siggy!

"Attack while its tail is up!"
I was really annoyed when I first played FFVII and died on the first boss! lol
Also, "This guy are sick"
And "If press X button while walking to run", "Off course", and many more.
Becaause you are a puppet.
Does any one else think the comma in "No, way" shouldnt be there?Originally Posted by Shiny
FFVII is definitely full of mistranslations.
Thats more annoying to me than "Off Course" which just sounds cool.
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
...I am a puppet?
I loved the translation in FFT.
"Defeat Dycedarg's Elder Brother"
"!!!" (Used numerous times)
"Mogri"
"Rich"
"Stasis Sword" = "Steady Sword"
And I think EVERY time the game says "Bracelet" in an attack, they actually meant "Breath", as in "Ice Bracelet" or "Fire Bracelet".
I'm fairly sure it was 'beacause'.
Yes, it was. I could never forget the typo that ruined such a crucial line within such an important scene.
That always made me mad...
"Attack while its tail is up!"
*Attack*
"It'll counter with its laser!"
What, now?
*Cloud attacks*
*Laser*
WTF???
Oh, you're right. Well, that's even better (or worse...)!I'm fairly sure it was 'beacause'.
Not really a mistranslation, but the line "Blasted monster!" from FF2 Origins is pretty damn funny. XD
My favorite is the little kid in Kilika.
"I wanna be a blitzball when I grow up!"
