I'm pretty happy about Gotta Protectors(the sequel to Protect Me Knight on XBLIG) coming stateside. However, when I visited their website out of curiosity, I was greeted with a terrifying reminder of Western box art for retro games:

There's a big Easter Egg in the site though if you explore it enough.

PROTIP:

Spoiler

Just mouse over the Westernized abominations, including the chibis.

This Easter Egg shows how much Ancient went the extra mile for this game. I definitely plan on getting it on the 3DS eShop as soon as I can.

Looks interesting! The 8bitness is hitting the right chords with me (pun intended). And that FM soundpack!!

Will buy!

I feel as if I'm being sold something with this thread, but the first game was actually pretty fun, so what the hell.

I will say that the original was criminally overlooked; 😢 it was on only XBLIG which was a death wish for exposure. So yeah, I do want more people to experience this game because the Protect Me Knight is one of the best couch co-op games I've ever played. 😎

It was definitely a lot of fun. I stumbled onto it one day by chance when I had some friends over to play Smash Bros and we had a good few hours with it.
