Zero Wing: Google vs. Yahoo - Battle of the (Bad) Translators

What if the developers of the game Zero Wing had access to online translators? In this video, the original Japanese dialogue was copied and pasted into both Google Translate and Yahoo Babelfish.

Not funny, because the timing of the subtitles are shit.

[FunWannaBe]

@MsPwain Yes, as if that's truly a priority considering the absence of any spoken word. If you are going to troll, then at least try to criticize intelligently.

At least it's better than continuing to butcher the German language with pathetic Downfall parodies.

@FunWannaBe He just means that your subtitles aren't on there long enough. I also kept having to pause the video to read the ones that are longer than 4 or 5 words. Take some constructive criticism.
