User talk:RahanAkero/Darkstalker Winquotes

Thanks a lot for helping translate these. Honestly, I wasn't exactly sure whether this belonged on the Wiki or not, so I wasn't too surprised when I found them removed. Also, the translations that were present in the article were my own attempts, so feel free to improve on them if you think they need it. (Felineki)

Hi there! There was a bit of an administrative miscommunication, it's all good. I might change a thing or two (see: "There's only room for one Zabel!" to "Only room for one Lord Raptor" due to the name change), but all in all, you seem to have done good stuff. :x Just a note: when doing an edit on someone's talk page, click the little squiggly button second from the fight on the bar above the edit box, that way you sign the edit and I know who's talking at me. :x

Do you happen to know if these winquotes are all character-specific or not? I notice some of them are for mirror-matches, but knowing who's saying what to what would be ULTRA-helpful.--RahanAkero 23:14, 21 March 2012 (EDT)

There are four categories, with some overlap between them: Normal, crushing victory, narrow victory, and mirror match. So aside from mirror matches, there's nothing character-specific.--Felineki 23:17, 21 March 2012 (EDT)

While we're translating these, I figured we should go ahead and do the ones that were added in the sequel as well, so I added them to the page.--Felineki 14:52, 28 March 2012 (EDT)
 * If I may help here, I own Darkstalkers Graphics File and they provide their own translations for each quote. I don't mind typing them up in here so we have some point of comparison?--Kung Fu Man 15:30, 28 March 2012 (EDT)
 * That would be very helpful, I'd greatly appreciate it.--Felineki 19:21, 28 March 2012 (EDT)

Posting a text dump here then. Going to sort each character by DS and NW. Vampire Savior got retranslated as well for the curious, might be noteworthy to point out that Demitri lost a winquote between the Jap and US versions...and that most of the original winquotes are nothing like the ones in the US.

(DS) This is my true strength. You would do well to remember it. Do you even need to ask who is superior? Why don't you give up? Sure you are getting tired of embarrassing yourself by now? Hmph. "Defeat" does not suit me. You made a fine opponent. I honor your effort. Quite the luck you had on your side... It made for an entertaining evening. Ha ha. I wish I could play with you a little longer. Unfortunately, I am a very busy man. Ha ha. That was thoroughly enjoyable. A little danger every now and then is not a bad thing. Foolish man. Did you think you could get away with using my name? It seems you were unable to mimic the full height of my powers. It is over. You shall have an eternity in hell to regret your actions. Carve this lesson into your body well... there can be only one victor. Me. If you hope to defeat me, you must put your life on the line. That is just proper manners. I had a nice time, though a little unsatisfying. My first battle in a century, and this is all you can give me? Can you feel it? It is like a wave of shadow engulfing everything! Ha ha. Forgive me. It's just that I find you so amusing. (NW) Tonight, I shall make a toast with your blood. To challenge me... is naught but foolishness. There is no game more entertaining than that which risks your very life. Sight... that messed up my hairdo. Can you not fathom the full extent of my powers? Such an end is most suitable for one who would disturb the peace of the night. Now don't be shy, I shall grant you eternal life...!

(DS) No one can stop me... no one! Put your all into fights... That is how I do thing! To be frank, I have no time to waste on slowpokes! I have no desire to toy with you any further... get lost! You're pretty skilled. I better get back to my training. Hey, that's enough... no need to be a poor sport about it. I see there's a lot more to this world yet. I didn't expect to run into someone who would make me work so hard. Ah, al dente... just the wya I like it. The blood sauce wasn't too bad, either. Come back when you've trained a little more. Of course, I will be even stronger by then! Are your fangs props or something!? Pathetic! Savor the taste of defeat! Your options are simple... I can tear you into pieces, or you can run away with your tail between your legs!! Are you still unable to exceed your own limitations!? No one can stand up to my fangs!! The moon is slowly driving me insane! It tells me to "tear everything apart!" My name is Jon Talbain... the werewolf warrior who is faster than the wind. Maybe you should give up now. There's no way you can beat me. Not in a hundred years. Discretion is the better part of valor... and you don't even have that. (NW) It's not over yet... not yet! Move faster! Faster!! Compared to the pain in my soul, these scars are nothing. I will use these claws to tear through any wall in my path. You must have a deathwish... Stand up! Through everything you have at me!!
 * Talbain:

Raptor: (DS) I'll take your silence as an indication of your awe. Sorry, but I don't give out autographs!! This is The End!! I am the Emperor Lord Raptor! No one stands a chance against me!! I have no words to pity you, but I will say this: "Eat that!" Ha ha ha!! As if I could afford to die even more, baby!! The gates of hell are right in front of you, baby!! What was that proverb? "Spend 3 years underground"? Ha ha ha!! "A rotting zombie is still a zombie," as they say! Ha ha ha!! There is not enough room in this world for 2 Lord Raptors. I've had enough. I feel like I'm hitting my own face here. Have you been putting yourself on a crash diet? You're looking a little pale! Ha ha ha!! Houw about a duet some time? Of course, I'd be singing the main part!! Ha ha ha!! I like that look on your face right now. It really suits you! Let my shouts drive you crazy, baby!! Did my performance make you weak in the knees!? It's okay, just soak it in! What are you, a heckler? Ha ha ha!! Did you actually think you could win? He he he. You are a fool!! I've actually come to like you quite a bit. You feel so good when I'm cutting you up! (NW) Get lost already! You're as good as dead! Oh... I guess I am too, huh? Ha ha ha!! Rock on!! Power to the Undead!! You won't find a lot of zombies quite like me!! This show's your ticket to hell, and we're nearing the finale!! Oops, sorry!! Looks like I killed ya!! The fight actually begins with your death!! Yo!! You again, huh? You must have some serious deathwish!!

That's all for now, hammering this much out kills the hands fast.--Kung Fu Man 23:04, 28 March 2012 (EDT)
