    Wasnt Ketsui also ported to the DS?

    Oh wait yes it was Japanese HP link below. Have been curious about it but the price kinda keeps me away.

    [www.arika.co.jp]

    Am sad that the ports went poorly since seriously "was" waiting to purchase them both till I heard of the bad news in regards to the quality. #5pb

    @Witzbold: Cool. I really hope they localize it, or at least re-release it with no region protection, as I can't really afford to import a J360 ( planning on moving to Manhattan from Brooklyn in the spring ) right now. My pre-order is in for Futari though. Can't wait! #5pb

    Can anyone explain why shmups are so hard to port? I can play most Cave shmups on my laptop with MAME, and I got it in 2004. What is it about the 360 that gives them so many problems?

    Now, that is a fine piece of man right dere...although Kojima will ALWAYS be beacon of attractive Asian geekiness to me.

    Yu Darvish is an example of WHY mixing races is good.

    Half Iranian and Half Japanese...it's almost like dividing by zero. So unfair.

    He's also the man behind the Magical Academy "Afilia" chain of maid cafe-esque "magical girl" restaurants in Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka.
    [www.afilia.jp]

    He's not bad looking, although I must say that I prefer the staff.

    Recently he has produced a group known as Afilia Saga East comprised of staff from the Ikebukuro location.

    I suppose you could appreciate that he is good looking, but handsome is completely the wrong term.

    Handsome generally describes someone along the lines of George Clooney or Brad Pitt (if you want to get into the most basic example)

    This guy is more slight and feminine, it greatly annoys me that most of the girls I know are into this type of girly guy. It's as if my stubble and workouts are like kryptonite to them!

    @Howd_it_get_burned: What age group? Younger girls usually like girlier guys because they're less threatening. Just wait until they grow up a little.

    Unless you're like 40, in which case I'm just really sorry. Or, um, maybe you should start looking into women and not "girls." XD

    @Howd_it_get_burned: just cause he doesn't look like he just came home from working on a steel mill, doesn't mean he is not handsome. handsome comes in all shapes and sizes. different looks appeal to all types of people.

    Not all women are into guys that look like girls. In fact, most girls are not. Who is into guys that look like chicks? Oops, that's right. Other guys. Not that it is bad thing, but facts are facts.

    Also if you take are real look at the top voted sexiest men are in past years none of them look like girls like this guy does.

    Even Brad Pitt who is still "man pretty" does not look like a woman. He is still very manly in his features. Same for Gerard Butler. Or any of the other top voted men.

    So who really know women here?
