I can't remember any particularly funny official names (I guess you have to dig Japanese romsets since they tend to give their stuff funny engrish names) but I absolutely adore titles which pirates give to the games in their multicarts.

My favorite is 1200-in-1, names get progressively wilder as you scroll through the list and there's always an intrigue on what game is hiding behind a pretentious name like Batman 30 or Furious 4.

they wanted to capitalize on name recognition since they figured americans were too stupid to recognize that "tales of" was the series name. Makes sense, since unlike in Japan, "Tales Of" is a generic prefix to a name of something in English. Moonlanders wouldn't have had an issue with that since it was a foreign word.

This is one of the largest scans I can find. From an issue of EGM. I think this game would have made the rounds in magazine ads between may 1992 to July 1992.

EU NES censorship of Contra is yet another, and it was more because of "muh violence" rather than a political scandal. Thankfully, as a Eastern European I got to play the US version on my famiclone thanks to pirates.

I find it amusing how modern NES bootlegs aren't just simple romhacks with Mario or pokemon lazily put in, but actually a fully reworked games. They take some arcade classic (iirc this one is Donkey Kong Jr.) and actually change graphics, visuals and level layout to the point where it's barely recognizable.
Pirates have definitely stepped up in their craft.

I genuinely love all this pop culture interweaving with Japanese games and manga. I love watching Lynch's Dune and Alien and the Road Warrior and thinking how much these blew Japan's mind and influenced a generation of creative young guys who would go on to write all the stories that would loop back around and wind up on our shores and blow our minds in return.

I always knew the girl in Clock Tower was Jennifer Connolly (who was huge as a model in Japan in the 80s), but I only just discovered the lady in Crying Freeman was, too.

The Japanese and European names are different. This was most likely chosen by the American publisher. The only sensible explanation is that the shit fetish definition of the word wasn't that well known before internet days

Scat is a very old word not etymology unrelated to shit itself. The publisher probably chose the name for shits and gigs

Regional names of Japanese games are often chosen by the Japanese head office - hence half the stuff in this thread - I'm going to say that this is one of those cases.
'Scat' is a very old and well-known word, hence 'scatological' if nothing else

I wouldn't be so quick to rule that out. Cursing does not come from a lack of vocabulary, nor does it necessarily mean a lack of self-respect NOT SORRY, Anabaptists, ""traditionalist"" Catholics, Pentecostals, many Presbyterians, Wahabi backwardists, Many a Muslim of either Sunni, Ibadi, or Shiite submissive thoughtslaves, Mormon morons, Jains, Orthodox Hebes, ""Jehovah's Witnesses"" Ba'hai dipshits, and Seventh Day Adventists.
