I don't think that is quite right. On a surface level it wouldn't make much sense since not all of them would use your natve language for the prununciation. I would attribute it to being familar with how other languages sound, and specifically to how the languages the words come from sound when spoken by a native. I also pronounced all of the games  had ever heard of correctly, and am only fluent in English. I can read and understand a decent bit of German, and French. I am also very familiar with how a handful of asian languages should sound.

But erm i say Pokemon "Po Key Mon"



 

The last two made me lol. I was definitely expecting the last one.



Pixel Art can be fun.

I was kicking ass with the pronunciations (I owned a few of them! Others, I'd read about back when they were released or I'd seen the commercial)......then I got to Popolocrois. For some reason I'd been calling this game Po-Po-Lo-Crisis. where the heck did that come from?



Lol the Wii one was funny.



Oh, and Gamesradar makes the best lists in the gaming business. They're always entertaining!
