Probably depends on how many people actually want the change....Schokobecher said:

Dorya is a Japanese word. This is an English translation. You'll notice how some things, like Grasstown/Bushland, which are just as tricky to translate, have English names. This is why I believe that Huzzah should stay Huzzah.

Even if they decide against Huzzah, Dorya would be the LAST WORD they would ever use BECAUSE IT IS A JAPANESE WORD! English speakers typically DO NOT understand Japanese words, that is THE ENTIRE POINT behind English translations. Changing "Huzzah" to "Dorya" is a step backwards translation-wise.
How many time must I say this?

I dunno....
Haven't you guys seen games in other languages, where certain parts use English phrases?
Like, Mario Wrecking Crew '98. I've got a Japanese version, so I can't understand any of the story line, and I still don't understand most of how the game works, but English words like "READY" "START" and "END" are in the game. O.o;
I'm not saying that Cave Story will be the same thing, but I'm not throwing the idea of Doryaa replacing Huzzah out the window, just yet....
