  • Smash Bros Ultimate is a huge game with a LOT of Fighters. There are actually so many that it's possible you've been saying one of their names wrong since the very first Smash Bros game. So let's correct that, as I give you a rundown of all the correct pronunciations. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.

    @elimooorhouse4824 2 года назад +122

    I gotta say you (or your whole production studio, idk) really know how to make a video entertaining for the long haul. For example, just having those quick little pauses between the characters for each version of the game, followed by a music change, and saying "now we're getting into gamecube territory" does WONDERS for holding my attention during a 9 minute span. It's like you're giving me an entirely new chapter with a different premise even though it's the same concept and formula. It's the little things that make all the difference, very nice work.

    3:05 Lucina's name is actually pronounced very similarly to this in the Japanese version. The two other characters who have the exact same name but different pronunciation in Japanese are Lucas (Luchas, like in French) and King K. Rool (King Cruel, which was actually the original pronunciation intended by Rare)

    In all seriousness, I don't understand how some people claim to have hundreds hours in Smash and then mispronounce the names of playable characters in the game. Rosalina especially urks me because it's an actual name, so trying to play the "it doesn't matter" card on her name feels like they are dissing everyone named Rosa/Rosalina.

    • @xXJ4FARGAMERXx
      @xXJ4FARGAMERXx 2 года назад +1

      Most of what he's doing is pronouncing the vowels wrong and using the wrong version of a consonant.
      The rest of this message is very long, you sure you wanna read it?
      Alright then, don't say I didn't warn ya!
      For example, there's a rule that goes " = sound in the letter _g_ "
      But that rule is broken in many words such as _gif_ and _gift_ and _give_ and _lugia_ and more.
      The reason that it's broken is because people want to preserve the pronounciation of a word from another culture, so they use the best _approximation_ of what it would be like romanized. But the problem is _romanized_ letters don't have a set value. They just have an approximate value that changes based on a whole lot of things.
      's value is either the sound in _uh_ , the sound in _noon_ , the sound in _cute_ , or the bearly-existent sound of the first in _minuscule_ .
      's value is either the silent value in _mute_ or _either_ , or the short sound in _English_ , or the long sound of _eat_ or the sound of _earth_ , or the sound of _emblem_ , or the Bearly-existent sound of the second in _useless_ .
      's value is either the stressed sound in _Ice_ , or the short sound of _in_ .
      's value is either the stressed sound in _Open_ , or the long sound of _Door_ , or the "aw" sound in _Cop_ , or the sound in _oops_ , or the Bearly-existent sound of the first in _potato_ .
      's value is either the sound in _cake_ , or the sound in _ash_ , or the Bearly-existent sound in _about_ .
      That's the reason that _bit_ and _bite_ are both spelled with an
      The reason that _Bot_ and _both_ and _boot_ and _door_ are spelled with an
      The reason that _cure_ and _tube_ and _tub_ are spelled with a
      The reason that _mat_ and _mate_ and _about_ are spelled with an
      The reason that _meet_ and _met_ and _earn_ are spelled with an
      So i can make sentences like:
      Meet mete the meat!
      Beat bete the beet
      Go and beGone, Gon!
      yay, they made it rain!
      If you made it here, here's a cookie for you! 🍪
      Now, if you want to spell a word like KameHameHa, how do you spell it? While you spell it Ka-Me-Ha-Me-Ha people will pronounce it like: kuh-May-uh-may-uh
      If you want to spell a word like café, how do you spell it? While you say it's café, some will pronounce it ka-fi or ka-fe or even worse, sa-fae.
      If you want to spell ying yang how do you spell it? While you say yin yang, some will not pronounce it with a nasal n sound; ñ. They'll pronounce it _with the g_ so you say yañ, they say yañg
      Idk where i am going with this, i did a whole rant and i lost my train of thought.

    Almost All of these fighters seem about right, but where did you get the H from when saying samus and dark samus?

      I believe it is a corruption of an Irish name

    I started watching the video and soon got confused. Quite quickly though I realised this was obviously an April fools day upload... then I checked the upload date... and got very confused again.

    People think the announcer is pronouncing the names correctly and copy him, but they've just bought into the lie. Nintendo actually payed him off to convince everyone to use the wrong pronunciations
