Those hack-and-slash Onechanbara video games have been made into motion pictures that, like the games, mix violence and titillation. A spin-off Chanbara movie goes straight to the titillation. More »

Japan's D3 Puplisher, sorry, Publisher released its bar girl hostess simulator Dream Club in Japan last August. Since then, people on the Japanese internet are claiming that blond pigtailed character Mian has changed, it seems. More »

Japanese game company D3 Publisher chalked up one of the most embarrassing misspellings of 2009: That of the company's own name, D3 Publisher, in a game trailer. There is a reason for that, says the company. More »

D3Publisher announced an aggressive push into kid-friendly games this morning with two announcements: First, the publisher has entered into an agreement with Universal Pictures to release video games based on the upcoming animated film Coraline, an adaptation of the gothic fairytale novella by Neil Gaiman. The Coraline game will be coming to consoles and handheld systems in 2009 More »

I stopped by D3Publisher's hotel suite yesterday to check out some of their stuff. I hadn't heard much about Bangai-O Spirits (remember, Dreamcast fans?) which has been out in Japan since March and is hitting here sometime in the fourth quarter, but that's because I generally don't follow shooters.

Like, well, yeah. Anyway, this is pretty much exactly what we were imagining — down even to the schmalzy music, cheesy effects and exploding decapitated heads.

That's right, hack-and-slash game Oneechanbara is getting a hack-and-slash film adaptation! The movie was announced today at a Tokyo press conference, and the flick's website was launched. The film will star TV talent Eri Otoguro as Aya, bikini model Chise Nakamura as little sister Saki and idol Manami Hashimoto as Reiko. And how was it playing the bikini cowgirl Aya? Otogruo illuminates:

And the quirky DS games don't stop! This time, it's Simple DS Series Vol. 25: The Koushoujin from D3 Publisher. Players take on the role of a police negotiator who has to talk crooks into dropping their weapons. To be totally persuasive, check the bad guy's background info and scan with a remote camera. The crook's data sheet tips off players so they know the right things to say and get the criminal to surrender peacefully. There's a countdown clock for added pressure! Players are then ranked and judged on things like their leadership ability, how calm they are, etc. Off-beat, sure, but this game seems pretty neat. How about a localization, D3? More »

Off-beat D3 Publisher is bringing Earth Defense Force X (now retitled Earth Defense Force 2017) to the States. The EDF series originally appeared on the PS2 under the Simple 2000 label, but has since moved to the Xbox 360. The campy third person shooter lets characters shoot up giant bugs and robots. And who doesn't like that? So the big question is what language the game will be in. Says D3P's Brian Etheridge: More »

Our favorite zombie-slashing cowboy hat-donning boa-wearing bikini killer, Onechanbara's Aya gets new duds in the next-gen Xbox 360 sequel Onechanbara VorteX. Looks like there are dress-ups for the character's head, arms, legs—along with tops and bottoms for the character to wear during the hacking and the slashing. Don't just think of them as new outfits for Aya to wear, but new outfits to cover in zombie blood. Brian Ashcraft More »

With a title like that, logic says WTF has to suck. The D3 game, also called Work Time Fun or Baito Hell in Japan, isn't getting the best critical reviews. Some of the negative love is probably due to an unnecessarily complex mini game system. Players start out with four mini-games and must "buy" new games from in-game paychecks. Unlike the short and sweet Wario games, the WTF minis are meant to be played for several minutes at a time, and that sounds like no fun at all. What. The. Fuck. Brian Ashcraft More »
