Some games are being released late in Europe because of the translations. It quitte a big thing. I was upset when Microsoft decided that Banjo and Viva where translated to Dutch but without a simple option to have the original english voices/text. You had to set your console to US/UK setting to have to original version. In Banjo's case the game was 20 euro more expensive then on other continents because of this fact. Yet I do understand that this game have a potention towards a younger audience, and they dont understand english yet.
Sometimes it's just rediculous to translate games, for instince NFS or Forza Horizon just feel wrong in dutch.
Now, being a father too, I would like to see some games in full Dutch too, but not mandatory. Games like Lego City Undercover and Luigi2 would be playable for my kids (4/6) if only the are in Dutch. Lego Batman was doable but I fear Undercover has a bit more story and directional hints to it. Does anyone know if these games are translated?
