Konami?

What's that?

Sounds like disappointment.

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

The moment I realized Konami had gone mad was when they announced they'd have a Castlevania pachinko with erotic violence.

I'd like to see you try to make a child-friendly pachinko about a game that uses a whip as the main weapon.

Stumbled across this looking up information on the Procube controller. lol

It's one thing to have a whip as a weapon.

It's another to go with the sexual connotations whips may have.

I don't necessarily mean making it child-friendly, but I don't believe "erotic violence" is the first thing that comes to mind regarding the Castlevania series.

There are no words that describe how dumbfounded I was when I read that news.

And before that was turning Castlevania into God of War.

I see your point.

But I think Konami should sell a few IPs because what's the point of keeping them if you won't make anything new for them anymore?

I do not know what this Konami is.
But it sounds disappointing.

At least Konami still have PES.

Maybe ND Cube will run over to the new president and say, "Hey, we know Bomberman better than anyone, buy him from Konami and we'll stay around the clock and produce THE Wii U holiday title that Star Fox Zero was supposed to be." Kimishima be like, "Dayum, you got it boyz."

And that's how Nintendo won E3 2054.

Spoiler

I've never even played Bomberman before, i just like his design and think he'd fit in well with the rest of the Nintendo crew

 

[Oasis Dealer]

Poor Konami. In just one year they went to complete garbage. I just wonder what will happen to those franchises...

The closest thing we got is a rumor that Namco Bandai will purchase the Metal Gear franchise, a rumor that barely has ANYTHING believable to it. Not like I don't want that happening...

I guess I can also say that Snake now has problems getting into Smash with this happening. But I don't care about that now, just hoping the franchise can continue along the other Konami franchise...

Edit: I noticed it said not confirmed yet. So there's still a slight chance this is more false information, which was them leaving console gaming. For now though, I'm leaning more on the true side.

I used to play DDR a lot with my sister, when we went to Utah for the Summer once, there was an arcade with DDR, she even got the high score on this song.

Those were good times, too bad we won't get anymore.

That is so true.

Heck, when I was a kid, I thought he was Nintendo character.

Primal Dialga is such a good song.
Why is it not in Smash.

That's not much of a difference.

This was interesting however.

I don't think anyone did. I found out about it last week when I was doing the Japanese DLC research :3. Since it only effects Japan, no one in the West knew about it. We are the first site to provide renders too.(Thanks @RandomTBush!)

Oh yeah there was that one update on Wonder Pink's trophy that happened sometime ago. I didn't know they did the same for Palutena.

They've never explained the Tharja case have they?

As far as I'm aware-- no. I'm hoping to find more information though!

Even if it's fake or not, Snake's position is still in his worst when it comes to Smash.

Insurance. They may not want to do video games now, but if the economy improves and they seen an impending game boom, you can bet your favorite undies (let's assume you wear some) that they'll shove out a new castlevania or metal gear.

Y'know I just realized Metal Gear Rising is probably never getting a sequel now.

I realized this like a week ago.

That teaser means absolutely nothing now.

 

[Champ Gold]

That's fine. Konami will just find a way to screw it up in the end.

Probably for the best. But still:

I believe in Platinum.

I'm a little confused to how this was posted in January 2012 when he talks about Wonder Pink trophy in the same article.

And something to ponder about.
When it comes to Kid Icarus Uprising's rating. If the main reason Japan gave a rating of B was because of Hydra's heads being taken off...
How come this weapon was allowed in a E10+ game, which looks to be based on a real-life weapon.

Perhaps it's because it's ridiculous unrealistic compared to the actual flintlock.
I wonder what other weapon is just as ridiculous as the Flintlock Staff.

Hmm..
I may be on to something.

The fact there's an innuendo between Palutena and Pit is worse honestly as sexuality has always been more taboo than violence, unless it's gore, because Japan doesn't like it

Perhaps because of how old and hard to find they are? I dunno. I've seen plenty of modern riffles in real life, but I've yet to run into a functioning flintlock.

There is no innuendo,just unrevealed truths.

Being a huge an of the game, I think it should've had a T rating, there's a lot of suggestive themes, realistic weapons, and they even mention hell and genocide. A lot of this must've got through the ESRB.

So that's why anime protagonists help people
Because it's a mature and edgy theme

So I started listening to the Pokemon: Super Mystery Dungeon music and Im in love and I also Pre downloaded Happy Home Designer
