        Pretty much any game prior to 1994, especially the RPGs

        QA for translations didn't exist. Thankfully it got immensely better once 1996 rolled with the rise of the 5th generation of consoles

        They never let poor Charu

          Can you imagine a timeline where all your favorite Japan made games around 1996-2001 were full of broken English?

          Imagine FF7-9 being this.

                ok the first one

                it didn't have the ' in it

                it was WORSE

                Also, some of the megaman battle network errors are great.

                    Ehhh I mean it's not wrong, ish -- just incomplete / partial.

                    狼少女ジョー = ookami shoujo Joo = "Wolf Girl Jo"

                    So I guess they just used her name "Jo" and didn't feel the need to add the qualifiers? Maybe it's a space thing. Dunno.

                            Have you played FF7 recently?

                            "I feel asleep" (instead of "I fell asleep". Commonly thought to mean " i feel sleepy" but that's not it)
                            "Still Missing Our Grey Fox"
                            "Uh uh, the truck have started to move"
