[JasoNsider]

God, the two new Wario Ware games are going to own my life. The first one is easily one of my most played games this generation.

Kappa no Kai-Kata: How to Breed Kappas (PS2, Konami): 7 / 7 / 6 / 6 - (26/40)

Turtle breeding?

 

[jenov4]

Impressive, but was anyone expecting lower scores? As long as they kept the same formula, I would imagine nothing under 9's ...

 

[sprsk]

Turtle breeding?

Its based off this really bizarre manga about breeding kappa (bald green river monsters)

 

[Diomedeskun]

No, Kappa breeding. A Kappa is a type of water spirit that is rather vampire-like. Of course, these are much cuter than Kappas of legend.

Kururin Squash! (GC, Nintendo): 8 / 6 / 7 / 8 - (29/40)

Why?
Still interested in the game, of course.

 

[bobbyconover]

Keep in mind that Famitsu scored the original Kuru Kuru Kururin 7 / 7 / 5 / 6 !

 

[Naked Snake]

Shit, looks like I'll have to import this one.

That look like turtles?


Mind you, I only recall the word Kappa from TMNT 3.

 

[bobbyconover]

They look like Turtles, yeah. They look like the 'Kap'n' (get it?) from Animal Crossing, if you ever played that.

:lol

I love that salty bastard.

 

[Meier]

From the How to Breed Kappas anime which just started airing.

What the friggin' fuxxor, are you serious??? OK, I'm not trusting their Kururin scores anymore. EVER.

 

[jarrod]

What did the other Kururin games get from Famitsu?

 

[Kiriku]

Speaking of Kappa, I will never forget the secret character Kappa in Star Gladiator. He kept saying "Kappa Kappa" when doing his moves, and in one of his throws he grabbed the opponent's crotch. KAPPA KAPPA :lol

 

[bjork]

Wario > Burnout omg

 

[White Man]

Simple 2000 Series Vol. 64: The Splatter Action (PS2, D3): 6 / 7 / 6 / 5 - (27/40)

The Splatter Action?

 

[epmode]

go burnout!

 

[ImNotLikeThem]

The Splatter Action?

It's a kid in a halloween costume he beats things up. Looks a lot like the old game Splatterhouse i thought... Probably intentional too.

 

[snapty00]

I played the Euro version of the Game Boy Advance version of Kururin, and I really didn't see any attraction, either. If the GameCube version is anything like that, I think Famitsu got the score right. It seemed more like a huge minigame than a full-blown game.

 

[sc0la]

I want made in wario 2

 

[Diomedeskun]

The "imp" spell in Final Fantasy 6 actually turned the target into a kappa. They are traditional Japanese monsters that live in rivers and make demands of those crossing bridges (like trolls in the west). The bald spot was actually usually an indentation in the head that held water, and they could be rendered harmless by spilling the water.

Turtle is Kame. Kappa merely have turtle-like shells. They also have very sharp fangs.
