Games that have better titles outside of America.

All of them. Americans destroy everything they get their ham hands on.

Bully is a much simpler and likely more effective title but Canis Canem Edit does sort of bring out that scummy shithole boarding school vibe

This. Europe usually shares names with the Japanese version.

Gateway to Glimmer fits the fantasy setting and generally just sounds like a much more fitting name than Ripto’s Rage (Which is still a good name)

Final Mission, or even Action in New York. Whilst America got S.C.A.T. LOL

I've got a fondness for Star Wing and Lylat Wars. They sound more evocative and interesting than just Franchise Name: Subtitle.

Vampire's Kiss should've been the title of Castlevania Bloodlines and Castlevania: Bloodlines should've been the title of Dracula X/Rondo of Blood.

[Anonymous No.8451785]

I like Bloodlines, because it indicates the two characters, who aren't strictly Belmonts, but are of the bloodline.

I think Vampire's Kiss suit the Genesis game better, since it was the first Castlevania where you fight a female vampire.

The title doesn't make sense, because Glimmer is only the first level

[Anonymous No.8451803]

Aha interesting. That does fit

As far as Dreamcast goes:
-Jet Grind Radio < Jet Set Radio
-Daytona USA < Daytona USA 2001 (no point in removing the year when it is clearly a very different game than the original Daytona USA)
-Tennis 2K2 < Virtua Tennis 2

Vampire Killer is better than The New Generation. Bloodlines splits the difference decently

[Anonymous No.8451874]

>>8451859
there's already a game called Vampire Killer though, this franchise really doesn't need more repeats

[Anonymous No.8451930]

>>8451821
I never understand what the point of such minor changes like Jet Grind Radio are.

[Anonymous No.8452019]

This sounds like one of those fake video game titles you'd see on a TV show parodying Mortal Kombat. Like Bonestorm.

I heard the Sega Genesis is called mega drive in the third world. So that one is definitely better in America.

[Anonymous No.8452679]

>in the third world.
And a little place called Japan.

I heard the country misnaming their Mega Drives being prone to self-absorbence to the point were they are totally unaware about the countries using real metrics.

But for real, what's with all the snowflake names and measurements?

This image has some irony to it which I, an European, can appreciate.
Something about self absorbance in the post above yours.

the chad million prefix and signifier of greatness vs the virgin catholicuck religious reference

[Anonymous No.8454439]

>>8452424
It's called the Megadrive literally everywhere else.

[Anonymous No.8454462]

>>8452929
At least mutts are straightforward about how self-absorbed they are
