I like most of the movies subbed because the English dubs sound emotionless most of the time.

Subtitles all the way. Most DUBs are just...horrible. Some are acceptable but I still prefer the original.

i personally would like it translated it just better and easier it help me pay more attention to the game for some reason. Maybe because i understand the darn thing. And teh vioce also catches my attention if it was sub i wouldn't pay and mind and just skip rite pass and and not even understand the story line

I just voted option two because I don't really care, and the second option is easier and probably more likely. And then some dubbed anime turned out to be very very bad (Naruto anyone?)

I would love to have a choice of either english or japanese voice acting with subtitles and the such for either. Sadly, I've been told that DS cartridges just can't hold all that memory for that stuff.

English subtitles definitely. Speech is not necessary imo. It always sounds so fake/stupid, like dubbed tv programs/movies. I would love to see some translations for all those cute Japanese games coming out lately..^^

I'd like Japanese games subtitled as well, if they get some horrible voice actors, that can ruin the game, as long as I understand the story I'll be ok

I like japanese audio better. I think that more games should just have subs or at least have the option to have the original japanese audio.

I prefer Japanese games to be subbed because a lot of stuff gets lost in translation. But there are some good translators. It's just that voice actors sometimes don't fit the characters and translation isn't that good for some companies.

If it's an anime based game then just subtitled as you lose a lot in translation. But if it's a long running series they should translate it.

I'm going to stick with the subtitles until the American voice actors become as good as their Japanese counterparts.

I'd rather have mine subtitled because the Japanese seiyu's often sound better than English dubs anyway lol ^_^They also change the dialogue around a bit if you translate it
