Earlier today, Capcom announced a new Mega Man game. Usually if Capcom announces a new Mega Man game, I’d do a proper post. But no, not for this game. It’s not a proper Mega Man game. Instead, Capcom is releasing a Mega Man social game for iOS. Look, social games are fine. iOS games are…
Go ahead. Gaze into Mr. Putin’s eyes. What do you see? I see a figure from Hong Kong toy maker DiD. You might get a sense of Putin’s soul. Regardless, here’s a collectible Putin.

The Avengers isn’t out in Japan yet, but will be later this week. However, the flick’s Japanese tagline is making a few people at least very, very upset. In Japanese, the film’s tagline is 日本よ、これが映画だ or “Hey Japan, this is a movie”. While some might think that seems innocuous enough, a couple prominent individuals have…

Besides owning restaurants and releasing his own sauces, Chef Kawagoe recorded a music single, which…
