Theme Song question...

Postby Snatcher2047 » Tue Dec 15, 2009 9:31 am

I've never bought a NISA game before (sorry :P), so I was just curious if they ever had any history of dubbing songs featured in their games into English. I can only imagine what the SWV theme song would sound like in English, though, especially if the VAs sang it themselves like the Japanese VAs. LOL

Most of the songs in NISA's games have remained undubbed, even if the rest of the dialogue is in English.

I could see them easily doing a dub for the ST5 theme, though I don't know how good it would sound.... that's very iffy thing to do. Best leave it as it is.

Yeah.. I think they'll leave it untouched. It seems most of the time theme songs are left alone nowadays... Like in Disgaea 2 and Persona 3 (Yes I know that isn't NIS but I'm not talking about just them) and a lot of animes that are coming over... then again, it depends on the audience... I think the younger audiences get dubbed OPs more than older ones... Adult Swim vs like...Jetix? (I don't watch TV..for all I know those are both dead lol)

Usually a large square or rectangular object. In my house it is usually bright and flashing with horribly ugly people and annoying sounds... other people have had different experiences..

Very few games I have played have english dubbing for songs. I can think of Wild Arms 3,4 FFX2, and "Tales of" games mainly having them. Pretty safe bet the theme song will not be dubbed.

What's the theme song for this Sakura Wars game for the Wii/PS2? I don't usually care if the song is dubbed, but I do often like the Japanese version more. Sometimes the English version (same song/tune) still sounds not too bad...not as good, but not too bad as the undubbed original.

It's the song you hear in the background of the trailer.

Sorry, I mean to say, what was the name of the song. My error.

"Surface Warriors" or "Land Warriors" seem to be the most commonly accepted translations of the theme song's name.
