Gravion
Ep. 1

A base in space has just blown up. It flashes across a computer as people at the party of a man named Sandman gape at it. But the worst is yet to come...for now the screen flashes...

Nope, it won't. AYB came first, therefore it will retain its mythical status.

People might use it a bit, but not as much as AYBABTU. (hey, try pronouncing that)

That's easy. You pronounce it as "a" (long a) "bab" "too" (as in "I want to go too) (it's AYBABTU anyway, not AYBBATU- All Your Base Are Belong To Us). ;)

Did you make that up or get it from somewhere?

Either way, I think All Your Base is far too legendary to be easily knocked down. But I think that a Zero Wing ending animation might be able to create another phenomenon. Even if it wasn't that bad, I'm sure we could "retranslate" it for some quality Engrish.

Hey, I'm willing to beat Zero Wing and give you guys a report on it...

BTW, AngelSakura, that's good stuff. I made up some Engrish for my play, Scene 2 or 3.

"All Your Base..."
Forgive me, but could soemone please clarify what that's all about?

If you have a copy, go for it, it'd save me time. Assuming I could get it on ROM, I could probably beat it pretty quickly. When I'm not interested in playing fairly, I'm a save-state/load-state master.

Heh, same here, UC. God bless the person who made up save states.

No, I didn't make it up. Just like my first post said, I got it from the first episode of Gravion.

Ah. That would have been far clearer if I was in the habit of thinking about Gravion as a created product, as opposed to something anyone could have made up.
