Re: Morning Musume'17 CM for Marukome Miso Soup

I saw this pop up on YouTube today and was really bummed. The video and vocals are pretty good, but the rearrangement with digital drums and instruments is a big shame. I guess that's the sound now, but boy, Morning Coffee shouldn't sound like this. :(

Re: What are you playing?

I'll believe 3rd party support when I see it. I got burned on the Wii U and I'm not liable to plunk down even more money on Nintendo saying one thing and then doing nothing. It's good to see the hardware side err on the side of normalcy.  I wonder if devs will have a weird time with making carts ins...

Re: What are you playing?

Got Grow Home on sale the other night and it's really nice. I generally don't like Ubisoft games with lots of open-world exploration in lieu of meaty content, but Grow Home is on the other side of the line. The repetition and freedom of exploration is relaxing. I had a really great time with Infamou...

ooooooooooh my god, Kaori's back. Her other solo album's fill a great, calm hole in my heart.

Wow, MM destroyed. And frankly, I'm surprised at Namie's sales, but I think she's been pushing digital big time (plus two of the songs already released digitally). It's truly a big thing to be able to say MM sold 10x Namie Amuro (who is resurging and is seeing a marginal uptick in single sales) on s...

Wow, what an amazing setlist. There are only a few blocks that I'm super interested in, but just the variety of songs and singers is stunning. I hope they could do something like this every year, but it's such a big undertaking between active/inactive/not H!P members. I really want a DVD of this!

I wonder how much Tsunku relies on fans relistening and growing accustomed to strange rhythms like that?    The music video is pure sex. The visual effects are superb, the dancing is cool, an...

No, PS4 cannot play PS3 games.

There are a number of PSN titles that will do cross p...

I think it'll stick around maybe a year or two and then get dropped. I'd have felt okay with just a new permanent name, but this yearly thing is such a crazy way to screw up whatever legacy the group will make. "Yeah, I was in Morning Musume 14 and 15 which are the exact same thing." The o...

This is a big get! Obviously, the timing of MM's resurgence paired with their legacy made them a powerful choice. If this goes well, they could play a part in 2020 too. Tsunku's in a high-pressure position here. If the cheer song is good enough, it could sell gangbusters, but it needs to be a good e...

Even though most of this is her fault, I still feel bad for her. She really can't do anything anymore. She wasn't the biggest personality, but anybody who knows her now will always associate her with the affair. On paper, it seems like her life may as well be over.
