Read Tina's review to see why I urge you to pick it up.

I want's another two companies that have similar business ethics to Nintendo

Yeah, I don't get why people are so antsy for it to end. Having a stable system is the draw of consoles, after all. It's good that this generation has lasted as long as it has, especially given the higher development costs companies endure to support it.

"Mike Fahey doesn't care about Black2key."

I think you'll be in the minority there, since most people when reading about a foreign game are going to want to know if it'll be coming to their region. Again, this isn't a review. The game's "score" isn't being deducted from on the basis of it being a Japanese only release.

1) "Unprofessional?" It's a valid point of interest for a largely Western audience.

I can imagine an American going up to a Japanese school girl and fondling her on the spot thinking that's normal, since it happens so frequently in popular anime. Doesn't help with the perception when "fan service" seems to be Japan's biggest export to the West at times.

Where all the busty, half-naked women at?

Cartridges are the only area where the N64 could be considered inferior to the PlayStation. I suppose sound could be another, because while the PSX had weak sound overall, it did have a processor for it whereas the N64 had to share the audio load with its main CPU, even if that lone CPU technically outclasses Sony's…

I tried the demo and didn't love it enough to buy it outright, but I'll probably grab it later this week. The demo annoyed me because the tutorial hardly lets you explore the fighting system, going from "derr this is how you walk" to "j.SP s.SP s.MK s.MK .c.LK s.SK" in four short steps. The two playable characters are…

It's crap. It and Space Ace are a waste of good animation. It's memorization testing without being as user friendly as Simon. I wouldn't feel too bad about missing out. You could always grab the DVD and just watch it for the movie it is.

The notion that the US has no factories is hogwash. We have plenty. The US manufactures more goods than any other country, 40% more than China. A Marketplace report, which is where the $30-60 figure came from (which does include all expected adjustments), did a great series recently on the exaggerated death of…

I agree that it's not the same, but then China also isn't nearly as bad as the US was in the early 1900s. You don't have kids working 16 hour shifts there (now) as a normal, accepted practice as it once was here. Things do look to be improving. After all, one of the premises of a global economy is that lower wage…

It is, at least of recent. Average Chinese worker salary hovered around US$110 per month, which is what Foxconn was paying a couple of years ago. When the suicide outbreak occurred, Foxconn doubled worker salaries to about US$200 per month.

Short message for unpinking.

Some peoples are always running around sliding all over the place, dusting and sweeping the landscape with their bodies.

I've read that the pin outs or something are incompatible with NTSC Saturns. Even the official Japanese Saturn RGB cable (and this is for my Japanese console) doesn't have RCA audio out. If I had a higher end setup like an XRGB, this wouldn't be an issue. The cheap adapter I'm looking at to fix this seems to act as an…

Yep. It's like complaining about that Call of Duty branded Jeep. Yeah, you could buy it, but it has no bearing on the game experience at all. It's just a trinket for the job creators.
