OK, it's settled ...

... my next game system is going to be a PSP.

I thought it might be a PS3 or an Xbox 360, but then I saw this trailer:


The name of the game in said trailer: Million Ton Bara Bara. I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean either, but who really cares--it's the product of the same creative geniuses (at Acquire) responsible for the Yuusha no Kuse Ni Namaikida (Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman!) games, for crying out loud!

A demo of the game, featuring three stages that won't be found in the final build, will hit the Japanese PSN on Jan. 21, according to andriasang.com, while the full game will hit store shelves (again, in Japan) a few weeks later on Feb. 18.

Hopefully it'll hop the pond (to Europe and the U.S.) shortly after ...

I was hooked from the opening fanfare, but the rest of the music sold me entirely. And when I saw him burrowing through the ship I thought, "I certainly hope it falls apart and that's the point of this game." HOORAY! Maybe I need a PSP, too...

The music is amazing, isn't it? That's what hooked me, too--although I have to say I love the paper-cut-out art style, too--and, of course, the gameplay.

If someone brought Half-Minute Hero to the States, surely someone will bring this, too? Assuming I actually get a PSP in the near future, I'll pick this up whether that happens or not :)

BTW, I find it kind of funny that I want a PSP, as I'm really not that interested in most of its library. There are a good 10-12 niche titles that totally have me hooked, though, and that's certainly enough to warrant a purchase :)
