This Week's Minutes

First off, so I guess we're in agreement that we will have Smash Balls turned off? The final smashes look like crap honestly. As Brad said some are way more useful than others, a few of them barely do damage at all (ie. Lucas & Ness, Peach). What's even worse is that some of them are even clones of each other (ie Sonic/Pikachu and The Star Fox Characters and Link/Toon Link). I found it especially funny that some characters even died after using theirs while others almost guaranteed a kill. I guess we should wait until we get playtime with the new smash, but it's looking pretty crappy. Famitsu gave it a perfect score, but I think that has to be out of respect for the series.

Secondly, so it looks like they're bringing Arcana Heart to the states. Apparently Atlus is publishing it. I was in Japan at Super Battle Opera to see the finals for this game. Too bad I imported it for 65 bucks. I'll probably buy this version too for the 30. [Arcana Heart Official Site]

Secondly, I'm all wrapped up in No More Heroes right now. At first I didn't like it too much, but now I'm itching to play it. I love the assassins and all the personalities they have. SUDA-51 and his team always come up with some weird and lovable characters. I hopefully will have it finished by the show tomorrow and will get a review up soon.

I should have some Smash Bros. Brawl impressions up tonight or tomorrow, if not, I'll talk about it on the show.

Four is my lucky number,
