egeta: Ha, ha, ha... You must be happy that a super-elite warrior deigns to play with little 'uns like you.

Goku: That remains to be seen... Goliath apparently had a tough time of it from a little guy who tried hard.

Vegeta: Ha, ha, ha... Well, I'll show you a wall which you won't ever get over just by trying.

(DRAMATIC POSES THAT NEITHER CHARACTER EVER DOES AGAIN!)
The manga's translation is so much better; that's obviously doctored and mangled.

I'm paraphrasing, but it went something like this:

VEGETA: A low level peasant like you should be honored to fight an elite.
GOKU: Here on Earth we believe that we can transcend boundaries and become better.
VEGETA: *snort* At least you have a sense of humor. Now let me show you the wall you can never scale...

I know how it went in the manga. I was just wondering if the Japanese dialogue used in the game at that point matched the original TV dialogue, or if it had been rewritten and matched what was subtitled in the game.

No. Never. Ever. I laughed the whole time too - has anyone seen some of those gag pics where they put in speech bubbles etc? One has Vegeta in pink saying 'Oh no!! It's the fasion police' :lol:

While we're at it, in the movie "Super Saiya-jin Son Goku" (Don't know the number) Gohan has an Arale (Dr. Slump) poster in his bedroom.

That's in movie 4.

B-kun: "What?"

So, where does this dialogue come from? I have no idea if it's what the characters are actually saying. Is it close to the dialogue from the original episode (Japanese or English)?
Come on this is the Pal Budokai we are talking about.... do you think Vegeta would EVER say anything like "Oh you Aunt Sallies!" when he's pissed off? seriously even "Darn you!" sounds better than that....

Just a word of advice before EX notices this: Don't Necropost. It's actually one of the rules here. Maybe you should go back and read them.

My god, this topic is from January. It's probably the only topic that's been necroposted multiple times.

Well, don't worry about it too much. People should just try not to post in topics that others aren't posting in, and never, ever, ever post in things on the second page or older. Besides, you're only responsible for one of the two necropostings.
