IDK I think they should make more VNs with heroines who have removable drills for arms like "Drill Shoujo Yui".

Happy 30th anniversary, Sakura Wars! This series changed my life! My interest in exploring untranslated gems was a direct result of the amazing experience I had when I first played through these games. SW taught me how limited the western view of games & their history truly is.

In Japan it is currently September 27th, marking the 30th anniversary of the Sakura Wars franchise. To celebrate, here's footage of Sakura Wars winning the very first Japan Game Awards, beating out other major releases from 1996 such as Mario 64, Pokemon, Nights into Dreams, and Resident Evil.

One of the most common replies I get on a lot of posts on Game Vecanti is why something is labelled NSFW when what's posted is SFW. The answer is that 18+ titles are marked like that so a person doesn't get flashbanged by adult content if they decide to look the game up.

This is one of those rhythm games where the notes are actually tied to the vocals! If you mis-time your button press, the singer goes way off pitch & that's why everything gradually falls apart in this clip. 😂 Incredibly cool tech for a GBA game!
