yeah, but you'll never satisfy the fanatics, this is why there should be two hacks, one with megaman and light and bass etc. another with rockman and right and forte etc. (I know Forte may not be in this game, it was an example)

ha ha, hey man don't get after me, I don't like Dr. Right any more than you, it just doesn't even sound like a name, but if you're going for consistency...

I believe THIS post belongs in this thread, as it doesn't seem to make any sense where it is at.

Nope, it was Suzaku's post about one name being common in english, while another was wrong.  Cheesy

"I bling a dispatch flom Prymouth!"

"Flom Prymouth?"

"Flom Sil Flancis Dlake."

"Entel, and apploach the thlone."

There are no hard-and-fast rules for Romanization.  Ever.

good point, it just figures it's a word that can be mistaken like this, I'm sure it would be easier if we were dealing with something that was clearly different like Dr. Wrong vs. Dr. Dark, CURSE YOU CAPCOM!!!! Tongue Wink

Random nitpick: if these sentences were converted to katakana and then back into English, "Sir" and "Enter" would not have the r/l ambiguity. They'd be "Saa" and "Entaa".

You also forgot to use "Prymous" and "slone". XD

There are no hard-and-fast rules for Romanization, but there are hard-and-fast rules for quoting Monty Python.

Kalinka is the name of a folk dance. "Karinka" is a word that makes no sense.
