The first Shikigami game was released in horribly neutered form in the states as Mobile Light Force II for the PS2, but the real star of the series so far has been Castle Shikigami 2, which was released with some of the worst Engrish of any last gen game. "Slaves for fashion dislike bulges!" That's for sure. Part of me wants the game released in the US with great voice acting and localization. The other part of me wants to see how bad it can get without it becoming painful. While I eagerly await news of a North American release, enjoy these twenty screenshots of the game in action.

Kotakuite Oly hit Sony's super swish Ginza showroom, which was not only displaying the PlayStation 3 for all to see, but a glaring spelling error. Instead of "SELECT", the PS3 controller reads "SERECT". Even though Sony's been batting fly balls of late, we're not going to poke fun. That would be rude. Spelling in a foreign language is hard, especially when it's an unusual word like "select".

Update: It's been confirmed. This mistake is real. Note that the console in the picture at Sony's Ginza showroom is an actual PS3 and not a mock-up.

Hit the jump for a few more pics. Brian Ashcraft

Update: I've posted all the images of the controller, which include the two originals and the ones I posted. Take a look after the jump.
