[@gringhidu]

Okay I haven't seen it in the comments before, so as a Person who speaks german (I'm swiss btw^^), I'll translate the words you couldn't pick up yourself: 1. Rechtschreibung: spell check. You can put in one german word and it checks if you spelled it correctly. When you typed in an english word it says "Falsch Buchstabiert" which means "spelled incorrectly". Vorschlag means suggestion, so it recommends you the correct german word. So when you typed in the correct word it says " Richtig buchstabiert", which means "spelled correctly". 2. Bilder Wörterbuch: Dictionary with pictures. I guess you can put in certain words and it shows you a picture of this word....? You read the wrong word there it said "eingabe drücken" which is a different word than "drucken" and means something else because of the umlaut. It means "push enter".

[@sigilhunter3199]

As an English speaker who is entirely unfamiliar with German, I would like to thank you.

[@Nordsee33]

Können Schweizer so gut Deutsch?

[@bangerbangerbro]

I don't speak German but I sort of guessed what the spell check was doing. TBH I thought it was a spelling practice thing of some kind.

[@xandervampire195]

Well, that's one way to make sure kids use proper punctuation (or would umlauts be grammar?); just change the word entirely if they get it wrong. German kids probably get better results in their German classes than British kids do in English.

[@LimeAtions]

When I was like 4, I had something-like this thing by VTech and the screen was about half the resolution. And the computer could sit on a lap of a 4 year old. Edit: like one 16th actually. And had a speaker that was like the GameBoy speaker with a rattle snake inside.

Snake Roy looks like a good painting that’s been sabotaged by the woman who created Potato Jesus.

[@MuchWhittering]

"Rechtschreibung" is a spell checker. Bum isn't a word so it gave you Bombe as its guess for what you meant. When you got a sum wrong and said it spoke more than you expected, it said "Probiert nochmal" (Try again). "Melodie Wählen" is choose melody. Eingabe is input, and the error it was giving you was "Insufficient input" or something. No idea what the hell it was on about. I also notice Snake Roy is made by a company called "Sachen", which just mean "Things". What a great name for a company.

[@Dogy0909]

I read that as “sacan”, they extract (in Spanish)

[@HauntFish]

I actually have a Sachen NES clone, it played NES games pretty well. Came with a game called Skateboy which had the most obnoxious music ever. I bought that thing from a local gas station in Finland.

[@yoymate6316]

Sachen being a word in German is just a coincidence. They were a Taiwanese company mainly focused on developing unlicensed NES games; their Chinese name is 聖謙, which is more or less "Sachen" (ch ~= tsch) in Taiwanese Hokkien.

13:52 - "Hänschen Klein" A German folk song from about 1860. It sounds like this: "Hänschen klein, ging allein, in die weite Welt hinein. Stock und Hut, stehn ihm gut, ist gar wohlgemuth. Aber Mutter weinet sehr, hat ja nun kein Hänschen mehr. Darum besinnt sich das Kind, läuft nach Haus geschwind."

It's ironic, but I actually thoroughly enjoyed that! It definitely has VTech connotations, but two things I did spot. First off, it has two channel polyphonic music in the game! It's a shame that the keyboard doesn't allow two tones to be played though. The other thing is that the BASIC programming editor, may only understand the German equivalent of the language commands, I.e RUN would probably be LAUF?

Snake Roy should be in a museum. It's breath taking.

[@andromedaturnbull3512]

The music in King Roy for the opening sequences is a series of extracts from Romanian Folk Dances by Bela Bartók and the game end/start from Tschaikovsky's Nutcracker, a surprisingly sophisticated series of choices - given the Eastern European repertoire plus that this was made by a Berlin manufacturer I would hazard a guess that this has some kind of East German heritage before a newer incarnation as the MegaDuck. This may explain the clunky oddness, was this a product of a successor to VEB Robotron?
