Zero Wing's Blind Idiot Translation opening is one colossal meme by itself, spawning edits, remixes and variations by the thousands, along with creating a host of lesser memes, though it long ago became a Discredited Meme. Even on this very wiki it is the Trope Namer or redirect for five tropes (War Was Beginning, Somebody Set Up Us the Bomb, All Your Base Are Belong to Us, You Have No Chance to Survive [which also has You Are On the Way To Destruction as a redirect], For Great Justice).

Metal Slug: RAWKIT LAWNCHAIR! HEAVY MASHEEN GUN! SHAWTGUHN! [1]

Altered Beast: WISE FWOM YO GWAVE! [2]

POWER UP.

NEVER GIVE UP.[3]

WELCOME TO YOUR DOOM! [4]

Epic Mickey: KILL THE MOUSE TAKE HIS HOUSE KILL THE MOUSE TAKE HIS HOUSE [5]

This whole video of Amnesia the Dark Descent [7]

What even is that thing? [8]

Oh GOD, I have to go into this next room.[9]

Oh shit, I have a bag of Milky Ways! :D

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!! [10]

The floor is made of terrible!

Go to (pick any level), NOPE.[11]

Etrian Odyssey:, F.O.E.! [12]

The popularity of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney in the United States led to a host of spoofs on Newgrounds (entitled Phoenix Wrong), putting the antics of the eponymous attorney and other characters to soundtracks of songs and famous movies, in the style of an Animutation.

Damon Gant, the jovial Chief of Police, who any internet Phoenix fan can tell you, will 'Raep' you.

ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOGANT.

Nearly every line in the 'official' English translation of Phoenix Drive, a doujin hentai game based off the Phoenix Wright series. Translated by the developers themselves, the English translation is chock full of Engrish, with some of the most popular lines being "I will beat a rod till... a tank empties" and "Oh snap! I do not hear such a truth!?"

"OBJECTION!" [13]

Zak Gramarye is a jerk.[14]

Hobo Phoenix. (Or in Japanese, Naruhobo).[15]

Are you a hobosexual?

Blatantly.

The miracle never happen.[16]

The comedy skit Boot to the Head done with Phoenix Wright characters, which rebooted interest in the Dr. Demento show.

You foolish fools have foolishly forgotten to foolishly mention the foolish fool that is Franziska von Karma, who likes to let you know that you are all foolishly FOOLISH FOOLS OF TOMFOOLERY, and you foolish fools should not be foolishly wasting your fool time foolishly reading... you FOOL! [17]

Godot can't see Redd White.

YOUR FATHER DIED LIKE A DOG AND SO WILL YOU [18]

We'll just have to take care of it tomorrow... IN COURT.

why tho

You're lying, dammit, and I can prove it!

I YELL OBJECTION IN THE COURT SOMETIMES

Quercus Alba is evolving! [19]

Godot is Cyclops. BEHOLD! OPTIC BLAST!! [20]

"A POOL OF WATER!" from RC de GO, a very underrated racing game for the Playstation.

Real Time Strategy (more than one game): "Im in your base killing your d00ds!" [21]

Scribblenauts:

I FUCKING TRAVELLED THROUGH TIME AND JUMPED ON A DINOSAUR AND USED IT TO KILL MOTHERFUCKING ROBOT ZOMBIES. [22]

Steak can be attached to a baby to attract lions.[23]

IS THIS Battletoads??

NO IT'S COMBAT AMPHIBIANS.

You sure? It looks like Conflict Frogs to me. Passible War Tadpoles. Though it could be Internecine Anurans. You know, the sequel to Pugna Bufonidae? Also, to this day people still call up Gamestop Locations and asking for info on the upcoming Battletoads game. There is no upcoming Battletoads game. Go to youtube, and you'll find videos of manager's reactions over the phone.

YOU SEE THOSE TOADS BUSTING OUT OF THAT WALL LIKE THEY DON'T GIVE A FUCK? IT'S LIKE THEY WERE BATTLING OR SOMETHING! [24]

No, it's Doom 3.

Dantini!

UMEHARA GA KIMETAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

Bridget will make you gay.

HEAVEN OR HELL! DUEL 1! LET'S ROCK!

Pretty much every cutscene and line in Hotel Mario and The Legend of Zelda CDI Games.

All toasters toast toast! [29]

"Toast doesn't go in a toaster. Bread does."

"Toast" does not necessarily mean "put in a toaster". When you "bake a cake", you're not putting a fully cooked cake back in the oven, usually you put in batter and the cake comes out. Toasting is the action that makes toast. Therefore one can "toast toast" just as one can knit a scarf or build a house.

"If you need instructions on how to get through the hotels, check out the enclosed instruction book."

"Gee, it sure is boring around here."

"MAH BOI, THIS PEACE IS WHAT ALL TRUE WARRIORS STRIVE FOR."

"Or else you will DIE!"

"You dare bring light to my lair?! YOU MUST DIE!!" *zap, zap*

"Did you bring a light?" / "NO..."

"I wonder what's for dinner?"

Oh, boy! I'm so hungry I could eat an Octorok!

"I can't wait to bomb some dodongos!"

"Nice of the princess to invite us over for a picnic, GAY LUIGI?

"I HOPE SHE MADE LOTSA SPAGHETTI!

Sony's E3 2006 press conference brought forth three instant memes:

"It's Ridge Racer! RIIIIIDGE RACERRRRR!!!"

The Giant Enemy Crab in Genji 2, a game "based on Japanese history," which you flip over so you can Attack Its Weak Point For Massive Damage!

Genji 2 also features "real time... weapon change."

PlayStation 3 will retail for 599 USD. Five hundred and ninety-nine U.S. dollars. FIVE HUNDRED AND NINETY-NINE U.S. DOLLARS.

Speaking of the PS Triple, "Sup, bitchez! It's Chad Warden here."

Play Station 3 has no games.

It only does [reference to Sony's latest gaffe].[30]

Nintendo of America's Reggie has uttered "My body is ready." It won't resurface until three years later, where it would become a huge fad.

And then there's "What's wrong with you?"

At E3 2012, He mentioned it. He was talking about the opportunity for fitness with the Wii-U, and said that "People laughed, my body was ready" to a chorus of cheers.

At E3 2008, a Nintendo employee named Cammie left a pretty bad taste in all the gamers' mouths due to her overenthusiastic personality about casual games. She even told a personal story on how she broke her wrist when she tried to snowboard. Literally, within seconds, her and and the word wrist became memes on several forums.

Star FOX 64 brings us Peppy Hare's various over-eager "hints": "Do a barrel roll!", "Use the brake!", "Try a somersault!"

Do a Google Roll!

You forgot Falco's "Hey Einstein, I'm on your side!"

Thanks to Super Smash Bros.. Brawl, Wolf O'Donnell's "Can't let you do that, Star Fox!" has expanded so that Wolf can't let anybody do anything.

"Can't let you brew that, Starbucks!"

"Can't let you chew that, Starburst!"

"Can't let you view that, Firefox!"

THIS!!!

"Fox, get this guy off me!" Shut up, Slippy.

Mostly for furries only, but Krystal can't enjoy her sandwich.

"This baby can take temperatures up to 9000 degrees!"

Super Robot Wars: If it's evil, you can pretty much guarantee that Sanger...Sanger Zonvolt! WILL CLEAVE IT!!!.[31]

Regardless of alignment, Elzam von Branstein (or Ratsel Feinschmecker) and his Trombe can override pretty much anything.[32]

As You Know, Real Men Ride Each Other.[33]

Or pilot Goth Loli-bots

CHESUTOOOOOOOO!!!! [34]

Ibis is Love.[35]

What the hell is Mist Rex doing in that new SRW!? [36]

Did they blow the budget on the Nu Gundam? [37]

Perfect World: Asoteric Runewolf is casting a powerful attack! Keep your distance!

Asoteric Runewolf: SUPER... POWERFUL... MIGHTY... WHIRLING... SLASH!

Xenogears: Chu-Chu died for your sins.[38]

"Master, sir, did you just see my MAD SKILLZ?"

I am! A MAN! OF THE SEA! *boom* [39]

Xenosaga: What do you think, Ma belle peche?

Ah yes! Feed me your hostility! Pierce me with your hatred!

The King of Fighters: Mai Shiranui originally shouted "Nippon Ichi!" ("Japan's No. 1!") when she won a battle. But it's been notoriously misheard by English speakers as "Me bouncy!". And yes, she is!

This troper would like to point out that the Mondegreen doesn't have a sound that sounds like "ow"; therefore, he heard it as "Me boingy!", which makes more sense if you think about it.

For more Mondegreen fun, there's Blue Mary's [40]

Anything that Terry Bogard says. Anything. The same goes for Geese.[41]

PREDICTABO! [42]

The Rugalspin. Thanks, Rugal! Thanks, MUGEN! [43]

KOKO DESU KA? KOKO DESU KA? KOKO DESU KA? KOKO DESU KA? KOKO DESU KA? [44]

Colgate EX Kim! Brush your teeth with JUSTICE! [48]

JUSTICE!! [49]

Shion... is a trap! And the poster boy for bulimia.[50]

Hm hm hm hm... ha ha ha ha... HAAAH HA HA HA HA HA!!! [51]

NO MAI = NO BUY! [52]

DeJap's Fan Translation for Tales of Phantasia featured, most prominently, adult humor that was never in the game to begin with. The most well-known line comes from this line of dialogue delivered by Klarth as the party is traveling on a boat to the next continent, as Klarth is asking the hero, Cless, which one of the girls he's going for, "Mint has that quiet elegance about her, but I bet Arche fucks like a tiger." Any Phantasia fan will tell you that Klarth is probably right.

What about the infamous "KUUUUUUUURRREEAAAA!!!" from Tales of Rebirth?

...or the equally infamous "INDIGNAYSHUN!" from the Game Boy Advance port of Phantasia.

WHAT THE HECK IS THAT?!

Tales of Vesperia: BLAH BLAH BLAH! TIDAL WAVE! [53]

"Prepare to die, eggbear!" [54]

Tales of Legendia: STELLLLAAAAA!!!!!! [55]

Tales of Destiny: NO! ITEMS! EVVVAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! [60]

BURUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?

Tales of Graces: Tomodachi nanda! TOMODACHIIIIIIII! HUAAAAAAAAARGH

MAMORUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.

"Let's search for the butt. It's the only way." [[labelnote:Explanation:A rather memorable quote by Sophie. The party was eaten by a rock monster and tries to escape. Sophie explains to Cheria that leaving through the butt would be safest.</ref>

Tales of Symphonia: "What is this ominous light that threatens to engulf us?" [61]

Here, TV Tropes, have some hot coffee.

I lied, it's actually Iced Coffee.

I lied, it's hot. [62]

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World: Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality... [63]

Tales of Destiny: Ore-sama wa Champion da! [64]

StarCraft: Mayday, mayday! Mah trope has taken terrible, terrible damage!

"You must CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS!" and "WE REQUIRE MORE VESPENE GAS!" [65]

WARNING! Additional pylons under construction!

"SPAWN MORE OVERLORDS!"

Bite me!

"Zerg Rush kekeke" [66]

"LURK MOAR"

Nuclear Launch Detected.

"My Life For Pylo!"

"FLOSS THE ZERG!!!"

You guys are so zetta slow when it comes to adding Sho Minamimoto from The World Ends With You! Used in a similar manner as Slowpoke to mock someone for posting about an old topic.

He's also used similarly to Ultros to tell some Incredibly Lame Pun, but math related.

Joshua and his Super Jesus Beam. Joshua is a form of the name Jesus, after all.(Yoshua and Yeshua have the same root name.)

Come get some Hot Stuff. [67]

Shiki's "Pants. Off. Now." and Beat's "IM DIGGIN' IT!" are popular among fans.

Tin Pin. SLAM ON!

For Tin-Pin is a Manly Game.

Must... resist... emo urges! [68]

There's a party in my mouth!

Shut up and walk, dear. <3 [69]

The plot screen from Bad Dudes: The President has been kidnapped by ninjas. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue the president?

Or "President Ronnie" depending on which version you're playing (the latter appears in the arcade version; the former in the NES version because of Nintendo's censorship policies).

The President has been rescued by dudes. Are you a bad enough ninja to kidnap the President?

The Ninja has been kidnapped by presidents, are you a good enough dude to rescue him?

The kid has napped by a ninja President has been. You are a bad President. This is not enough dudes.

The Prime Minister has been kidnapped by ruffians. Are you a righteous enough chap to rescue the Prime Minister?

Pac-Man: Waka Waka Waka [70]

We think Halo is a pretty cool guy. eh kills aleins and doesn't afraid of anything.[71]

Very good, TVTROPES! BUT YOU NEED... MORE... EXAMPLES! [72]

BRB, reinstalling Deus Ex.[73]

What a shame.

What a rotten way to die.

My vision is augmented.[75]

My pimphand is augmented.[76]

The Recut single-handedly spawned a few memes, including unforgettable phrases like "I might as well start using coke." and "Old Men are the future."

"The industry, as a whole, has grown up."

ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU!!! ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU!!! ICARUS HAS FOUND YOU!!!

I never asked for this. [77]

I'll never stop looking.[78]

AAADAAAAM, I TOLD YOU TO STOP READING THIS IN MY VOICE!

Yume Nikki: UBOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! [79]

Shout "Ubwaa!!" in any populated area of Phantasy Star Universe. Watch what happens. You all have Kireek to thank for that, by the way.

A simple complaint about a bad pick-up group experience on the City of Heroes message board turned "Go. Hunt. Kill Skuls" into the game's official meme. The boards went wild when then-head developer Statesman used it on the message boards. Then it morphed into a badge earned by defeating 200 members of the Skulls gang. It was incorporated into the official site's backstory for the gang. Finally, after loading screen messages were added to the game, a random message of "Go. Hunt. Kill Skuls" will occasionally appear.

Naturally, it's all a Nemesis plot.

It is NOT all a Nemesis plot.

FREEEEEEEEM!

Why does "FPS Doug" like shooters so much? Two words: "BOOM! HEADSHOT!"

Limbo of the Lost developed a photoshop following from other gamers who, amused by its brazenness in overusing literal Copy and Paste Environments, started coming up with ways to paste the hero in other games.

Also the Narmworthy "King of Limboooo!"

An originally low-key meme from Gauntlet (1985 video game) that slowly crept back into consciousness with the rise in popularity of the Internet: "Wizard Needs Food Badly!"

The Tails Doll from Sonic R is a Demonic Dummy that will eat your soul. Can you feel the sunshine?

Shadow the Hedgehog: "FIND THE COMPUTER ROOM!" [80]

Shadow the Hedgehog: "Where's that DAMN fourth Chaos Emerald?" [81]

I told Knuckles that Eggman was good, Sonic was evil, and The Other Wiki was as authoritative as a peer-reviewed scientific journal. He believed all of it.[82]

Shadow the Hedgehog: "You know what they say, the more the merrier!" [83]

Sonic the Hedgehog 2006: "Yes, but that alone..." (dramatic finger point) "... is insufficient." [84]

HOW 'BOUT THIS? IT'S NO USE! TAKE THIS! [85]

Sonic Heroes: LOOK AT ALL OF THOSE EGGMAN'S ROBOTS![86]

Sonic Adventure: "Get a load of this!"[87]

Shadow the Hedgehog: "THIS is who I am!"

The Meme That Never Was [110]

RAGE AWAKENED. [111]

"Roxas, that's a stick." [112]

There are many videos on Youtube called "Roxas hates (X music)". They use the clip when Roxas smashes the lab's computer.

Silent Hill: Pyramid Head is going to rape you. But it's not rape if you let him. And you know you will. [113]

GOOD HEAVENS, JUST LOOK AT THE TIME.[114]

Have you seen a little girl? [115]

My name is Harry Mason. I'm in town, on vacation.

Probably a doghouse, though I'm not sure since there's no dog around.[116]

There was a HOLE here. It's gone now. [117]

Captain, I don't think you meant to ask about my powers. -<DIDN'T YOU MEAN TO ASK ABOUT FLOWERS?>- [121]

The Eroge Nursery Rhyme (which hasn't been animated) is best known for its opening theme, "True My Heart", and certainly not for any originality—in fact, it's because the song is a generic eroge opening theme. This made it the perfect song for Fan Vids depicting random Anime that might have an Fundamentally Female Cast or a large portion of schoolgirls as Harem Series and removing their plots. The meme is commonly called "Kishimen", a Mondegreen of a line in the song that's actually "KISS de". This one from Code Geass may have started it off.

The Cheetahmen, the protagonists of one of the games featured in the compilation Action 52, have quite the Ear Worm of a theme song. Oddly, despite the fact that Action 52 was an American production, this has become a bigger meme in Japan.

The Elder Scrolls has spawned several.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion:

STOP RIGHT THERE, CRIMINAL SCUM! NO-ONE BREAKS THE LAW ON MY WATCH!

BY THE NINE DIVINES! THERE'S BEEN A MURDER! (Often said directly after you kill someone and take about two steps away from the corpse.)

Similarly: "The body is still warm." (another line guards say upon finding a dead body, which they will often say just after they kill someone themself.)

BY AZURA! BY AZURA! BY AZURA!! IT'S THE GRAND CHAMPION!

Also killing the Adoring Fan in unusal ways.

I heard the Fighters' Guild is recruiting again.

I saw a mud crab the other day.

Loathsome things, I hate them.

Did you steer well clear of it?

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim:

"...then, I took an arrow in the knee." [122]

People are getting tired of it.

FUS RO DAH! [123]

KA.....ME.....HA....ME......HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [124]

Let me guess, someone stole your sweetroll? [125]

River City Ransom gave us "BARF!"

From the EX version: "BIFF!" BIZARF!" "Bogus!"

And then there's the banner that appeared in the attract mode of so many '80s arcade games (most notably NARC), "Winners don't use drugs!" Usually used when somebody says or does something to make you believe, well, they're not a winner.

Speaking of winners, the one thing most emblematic about Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing (a laughably crappy "racing" game) is the trophy at the end after completing a race that says "YOU'RE WINNER!"

"Yes! I are winner!"

Which brings us to the classic incarnation: "A WINNER IS YOU!"

"LEVEL BROKENNNN!!!!" is a cry heard in many ROM hack playthroughs when the playtester has found a way to bypass all hazards in a particular segment.

Kirby likes to dance. And dance. And dance. And dance. And dance. Man, that little pink blob likes to boogie, don't he?

Now in textual form! <(^_^<) <(^_^)> (>^_^)>

It has also become popular to synch Kirby music to anime footage and audio. The most frequently used songs are "Gourmet Race A" from Kirby Super Star/Superstar Ultra and "Sand Canyon" from Dream Land 3.

"It feels like... pants!"[126]

From the German parts of the internet we have A vocal version of ""Gourmet Race", now also available in English from the same guy (different channel). Epic Fail or Stealth Parody? You decide!

Sam and Max: BANAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG!

There's a Tales Of Monkey Island version, too.

EarthBound: You Cannot Grasp the True Form of Giygas's attack! [134]

Giygas is often mentioned in the comments section of mind screwy YouTube videos. Mostly the ones that add frames every second or change the audio to G-Major.

For a Monster Clown variant, we have the McGiygas. You cannot grasp the true form of Ronald's attack!

And here's the video spliced into hacked game footage.

"Earthbolind" [135]

Jack Thompson, friend to video gamers everywhere, became the subject of a Twitter-based meme [dead link] after he lost his license to practice law. In fact, "Jack Thompson is so disbarred..." "How disbarred is he?"

I can't make fun of Daikatana without my buddy Superfly![137]

From Darius: WARNING! A HUGE BATTLESHIP _____ IS APPROACHING FAST.[138]

Boss fight Engrish is common in ST Gs. Treasure's RS games feature "NO REFUGE" before boss fights. Radiant Silvergun gave us "BE ATTITUDE FOR GAINS ... ", followed by three pieces of advice for boss tactics (which were "1. BE PRAYING 2. BE PRAYING 3. BE PRAYING" for the final boss). Ikaruga dutifully informs you that "The big enemy is approaching at full throttle" before bosses.

Atlus and CAVE advise you not to play their games outside of Japan, or you will be "prosecuted[t] to the full extent of the jam."[139]

THIS IS NOT SIMILATION. GET READY TO DESTOROY THE ENEMY. TARGET FOR THE WEAK POINTS OF F** KIN' MACHINE. DO YOUR BEST YOU HAVE EVER DONE.

The "huge battleship" quote is memetic even among Taito's own games; it's appeared in several other shmups developed by Taito.

What Nintendo fanboys have said about the Nintendo DS: "It prints money!"

Someone else made a hilarious picture of this meme in a different light for the Play Station 3: "IT EATS MONEY!"

On the Wii: "It still prints money!"

On the 3DS: "It prints money! IN 3D!"

On the Wii U: "It prints money! In HD!"

When the Wii U's name was announced at E3 2011, references to Ling's Verbal Tic in Kung Pow! Enter the Fist immediately followed.

Greetings, friend! Stay a while and listen!

You've found a Horadric Staff! That's quite a treasure you have there in your Horadric Cube! I'M DECKARD CAIN!

Duke Nukem has balls of steel!

"Blow it out your ass!"

"It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of gum."

Quoted from the film They Live!

"Always bet on the Duke!"

ALWAYS!

Release date: When it's done.

The game itself counts as a Running Gag meme, due to the fact that it has taken all but forever for the game to be released.

"Duke Nukem, Forever Delayed" [149]

Conveniently, "Duke Nukem" sounds like "do que nunca" - portuguese for "than never". From this, the "antes tarde Duke Nukem" (a pun on "better late than never") joke is created.

"Hail to the king, baby!"

In the web game Pandemic 2, the objective is to create a disease that kills everyone on Earth. To stop the infection, the regions in the world close their ports upon signs of a pandemic. However, the island nation of Madagascar is very close-happy with their one seaport, making infecting that island nigh impossible. This led to jokes about Madagascar closing everything at the slightest sign of a new infection.
