Typos in Turbo manuals
« on: August 15, 2012, 05:54:20 PM »
I remember posting about this on the Turbolist back in the 90's but without a picture...

 

I imagine some disgruntled print setter got a good laugh out of that...

I had no idea Splash Lake was ported to the Jaguar CD.

There are plenty of other games that would more easily qualify for the Turdo GrafX library than Splash Lake.

I have been trying to suppress the spread of this information for years.

FEKA will use it as ammunition for their propaganda machine.

So if "Splash Lake" is used as slang for a "toilet"....

Jaguar CD = Splash Lake

Perfect..

There are plenty of typos and errors on Turbo stuff.  Check out the back of Loom.  The caption for the dragon and weather pics are reversed.  :)

The French booklet had a lot of typos and translation problems... When you translate something from Japanese to English then to French... it can get hilarious!

Ah the Turd-o...  Now that brings me back.  I believe the Turd-o Grafx was not received by the public very well, so the name was changed to the TurboGrafx shortly after.  The Turd-o Grafx name was dumped.  8)

That's hilarious.   They seem to use that same sentence on most of the cd and hu manuals but somehow the managed to screw it up.
