Sakura Wars (2019) is now available in the west.


Just wanted to point out that the latest entry in the mainline Sakura Wars series (which started as a tactical RPG) is an real-time action game. Meanwhile, the latest entry in the mainline Yakuza/Ryu Ga Gotoku series (which started as a 3D Beat 'em up) is a turn-based RPG. And yes, I know both franchises mix up multiple genres, I was primarily talking about the combat system.

"So wait. Are you saying that the latest Sakura Wars game for PS4 started as a tactical RPG but the combat system was switched mid-development?"

That's not what I meant. I'm saying that the historically the Sakura Wars series was a tactical RPG (or at least the mainline entries), meanwhile the latest title is in real-time. The opposite happened with Yakuza 7, historically the series was a 3D Beat 'em up but Yakuza 7 is a turn-based RPG.

We now have a release date for the Destroy all Humans! Remake.

SEGA revealed the Game Gear mini....*sigh* yup.

What is this? A handheld for ants?!

Four colors with four games each. Each of these colors/models has at least one text-heavy game, which is obviously a bad idea considering how small these things are. Also, they sell the magnifying glass separately.

"A handheld for ants? Don't you mean a handheld for mice? Ants are way too small"

No, I meant to say a hadheld for ants. I was making a reference to the movie Zoolander.
