DS #3481: Sukashikashipanman DS (Japan)

[Private|Par]

For reference, it's not a Japanese "Watchman." It's a Japanese Rorscharch.

And... This game's title is possibly the most epic Japanese I have ever read Romanised. Yeah, I went there.

Patterned sweet bun man?

I guess its some sort of Anpanman rip-off...

Official Website

Edit: Too quick with the translation there... apparently "sukashikashipan" is a Sand Dollar (closely related to the sea urchin). So not an Anpanman rip-off.

Superman, Spider-Man. Those names were catchy. Sukashikaspianman is not.

Minigames look fun, do you really need to understand the dialogue or can you just rapidly tap A?

Looks nice, will try it

Weird name, weirder boxart. What's up with that ridiculously skinny chick? If it even is a chick?

 

[Vague Rant]

It's not really not understanding the dialogue that's the problem, it's that each minigame has an explanation page before it starts, and given that the aims are somewhat more obscure than WarioWare games, you'd need either a FAQ or a great deal of trial and error to beat them.

I can't believe noone's commented on this. Sukashikashipanman is a charachter created by Shoko Nakagawa, a nerd celebrity. She's cute, too. Some of you have probably seen pictures of her putting cats' heads into her mouth.
