Chocobo to mahô no ehon on DS. I liked the two Chocobo games on PS, they were so cute there should be laws against it.
FF5 will be available in Japan the 10/12, a few days before the US version. Too bad for those who hoped for a quick bugcheck for the japanese audiences... I think it also means FF6 will be released end of january.

"Re(1):I lost the last random thread" , posted Tue 1 Aug 19:20 DoAX2 I don't see any graphical difference with the first game. Dolls everywhere.
A concept café GG-themed. To have girls dressed as Bridget bring you your tea, then engage in a hour-long discussion on what's under the skirt.
Outside of those two mystery buttons up top that's a surprisingly restrained controller by Nintendo's standards. That's also the first controller I've seen in some time that has the cord on the bottom. Was that battleship that the DC called a controller the last controller to feature this odd design choice?
I still don't get it. As far as I could tell the appeal of Shenmue was making Ryo sleep in flophouses by the dock and do other silly things. Does this online game just feature fighting or do you barter virtual capsule figures and take care of an infinite number of kittens?

First scan for Jump Ultimate Stars.
Seems the komas are new (but not the attacks shown so far u_u), one of the fighting characters is the "leader" (a la KOF2k3/XI, I wonder?) and you can link a koma to the L button so you don't have to bother go touch it. This last one I like...

I don't recognize Gintoki's attack at least.
Well, I don't need new sprites, since the sprites were the best part. I just want reworked gameplay and ESPECIALLY balance. It's stupid to have all those koma if 95% of them are useless. I think the first game made for a great 1P experience (until you won it, it got too easy and had nothing to do), but if they're pushing online vs in this one, then they'll have to have better balance.
WHEE! New lifebars! I'm glad they're releasing SOMETHING though.

The game has the stench of a Matrix Online quality flop. The only good thing I see is that someone in Sega still remembers Shenmue.
That and Yakuza.

LOL
But I guess the reason behind this absence is rather that, due to "recent" image changes, all of Naruto's sprites will be brand-new. And time for showing new stuff, it is not yet.

While the ability to pull out a cannon and start blasting away is neat and all I do wonder how many jobs you can stuff into a game before they either become redundant or so specialized that they are nearly useless.

Maybe it'll give you the metaphoric ability to blast through the intolerable encounter rates. At least you didn't drop massive cash like in IV, so my Chicken Knife should have been really strong!

I wished I had seen that this weekend to newspost about it. Konami is releasing brain training games in arcade centers. Good luck to them. And Insanity will release a DVD of Rajirugi in september. After random choices such as Battle Garegga, FHD, Ibara or Raiden III, I wonder how they decide which games get a DVD... How popular was Rajirugi in the end among STG fans in Japan?

Atari proves that any press is good press by making into an article about the most outrageous CEO perks of 2006. Although their squandering of company assets isn't as bad as the others listed it's not like Atari has a lot of money to toss around.

Yep. Use them in Persona 3, too. Generally, I can't complain, since the renders represent the art so well, but I was a little disappointed that they didn't have unique Persona designs like before.

The only good panel in that comic for like...20 volumes. I can't think of a series with a more shameful end (and I'm not talking about the last 2 pages).
What's ridiculous about the GS Orchestra CD? The concept, or the covers? Everything? I'll take any GS Arrange CD I can get, even if it's some guy trying to play the soundtrack on harmonica.
I love Karuma on the cover, but Mitsurugi is awesome because he's trying so hard. Like "I used to be able to play this is middle school, but I can't remember..."

Well, the work of the arrangers is to beef up those tunes so they sound good being played by an orchestra.
