It's not just Sega that did stuff like that, but I think they're kind of known for it.

Not /vr/, but some of the PS2 and PSP ads Sony's done were also both pretty disturbing, and also quite baffling as well.

True this, everybody's done the whole 'sexy, dark and edgy' routine at some point, but Sega did it SO HARD AND LONG for hardware that ended up losing to "Nintendont's" that they will never live it down.

Man, I was just thinking before coming on here today I wanted to start a retro ad campaign thread. /vr/ you know me even better than myself.

I really do wonder whose bright idea it was to start an ad campaign based on some optional boss from near the end of the game. Square even had a newsletter called the Ogopogo Examiner.

Those translations are really, really inaccurate. Good enough, I guess, but as it's my job to sit about translating to and from French to and from several other languages (and among and between those other languages, as well) I would be embarrassed to turn in such poor quality translation.
Especially the last cell of the penultimate row which should read
>He's delirious. He braces himself against death. But death is stronger [than him]...
The translation leaves out an entire segment, that 'death is stronger' bit. It translates "roidit" literally as "stiffens" rather than figuratively as "braces" and adds "anticipation" where there is none.
2/10. Shitty translation work.
