When I worked at a store at a point we had a few Phoenix PlayStation games still sealed and sold some for donor cases (if you managed to remove the awful back cover translation sticker that was probably coated with Epoxy or something). One time a guy asked me to trash one of them, I told him to just keep it, that kind of shit could be valuable one day, so he also bought another two. A few years later he managed to sell all for like £150 total, not bad for what less than a fiver and likely way more than the game he bought the case for is probably now worth. This hobby can be so dumb sometimes.

I'm taking a wild guess that they started animating the kid on the bicycle and then when someone pointed out it would be creepy for a kid to kiss a sleeping woman (!) they changed it to a prince and didn't want to spend the extra budget to go back and re-animate the dozen or so frames where he was a kid on a bike. It was crunch time and they'd already blown their budget on the chimney.

I would argue that maybe using the term “clever boys” rather than “dwarves” is more of a copyright thing than a PC thing maybe? Like I know Disney can’t own the rights to the concept of dwarves, but maybe if you put it in conjunction with Snow White it becomes a bit more of a problem, or maybe it’s just a case of a shitty small-time company taking no chances either way. It is generally best practice to not cross swords with the Mickey Mouse Death Cult’s Lawyers of Doom, particularly when you’re a nobody company pumping out bargain-bin ps2 games

Actually snow white and the seven dwarfs are in the public domain and is the design decisions put on top the events described in the story that are copy right protected in other words they where already having that risk by having a similar dress design for snow white

@mightyfilm 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, but the artwork on the cover is clearly inspired by Disney's take. At least the Dwarfs are. They fall into that weird category of "Disney sued a daycare center for illegal murals, but they aren't going after this?" And frankly, this would be the time I would take Disney's legal department's side. They're clearly lifting the Dwarf designs from the Disney version of the characters for the intent of confusing someone's granny to pick up a copy thinking it's an official Disney product. A cheap cash grab that's basically reliant on direct IP theft. As for the "Clever Boys" thing, I suspect a lost in translation issue. I can't directly assume that the Polish version of the story substitutes some sort of Peter Pan-esque lost boys instead of Dwarfs, but I'm wondering if there's a variation that uses that substitution.

@maciejrataj4255 2 жыл бұрын

@@mightyfilm Actually, the Polish translation, when rendered verbatim in English, is like "Princess Snow(ball) and the Seven Dwarfs/Gnomes". Polish uses the word "krasnoludki", which is similar to "krasnale" and "skrzaty". They've been translated as "dwarfs" or "gnomes". In the fantasy universes of Tolkien, Pratchett or Sapkowski, dwarfs/dwarves are called "krasnoludy".

@mightyfilm 2 жыл бұрын

@@maciejrataj4255 And thank you. That's exactly the clarification I was hoping someone would point out. Just makes this game's adaption all the weirder. Maybe the game company just made them kids to be original or because they thought that kid stars would appeal to a kid audience, like they're surrogates or something.

@@mightyfilm There was a Pinnochio movie in the 80s made by Filmation, who made He-Man and She-Ra and numerous other cartoons of that era. They got sued by Disney for copyright infringement, but their lawyers tried to claim that Filmation's version was more so inspired by the Carlo Collodi novel, which was in the public domain. To which Disney's lawyers pointed out that there's a blue fairy, the aesthetics are VERY much the same as the original Disney film, and... yeah. It was a bit of a shitshow

The game is horrendous and the image of Sunny pretty appalling. What I cannot understand is why so many people at Longsoft thought depicting Sunny in this minstrel-show way was acceptable. It's true that there are so few people of colour in Poland that you can spend all your life in a small town and never meet anyone who isn't white, but come on, who on God's green earth thought THAT was acceptable and wouldn't raise eyebrows? Btw, I think my sister, born in 2001, played some of their PC games/films. I can't say which ones or whether they had any racism or sexist violence in them.

🤔 The snow white on the game’s cover has black hair dye, but it in the game she’s blond. The dwarfs look different too. Whoever drew the cover art probably didn’t look at the actual in game graphics. The black hair dye version of snow white has more attitude by the looks of it. The cover art looks a bit creepy though, you would get the impression it be a horror themed game. The song has probably the most generic lyrics ever, makes you wonder what they where thinking.
