Gun Gun Pixies, a third-person 'shooter' involving tiny pixie girls running around avoiding (and ogling) full-sized human women in various states of undress, is coming to Switch 'soon'.
First released for the PS Vita, it seems that you take control of two diminutive 'pixie' girls from outer space who travel to earth in order to infiltrate a college dormitory (ladies only, of course) to 'study' human behaviour. These 'studies' will help them work through certain 'social issues' on their home planet.
It seems that their mission entails an awful lot of looking at half-dressed girls in various states of repose, using the third-person shooting mechanics to sneak and skulk about the dormitory undetected while 'sniping' the girls and interacting with them in various ways.
There are coins to collect, with unlocks including new weapons, lingerie and costumes. Perhaps more interesting is the Day One Edition detailed below:
If we didn't have you at "tiny girls from outer space infiltrate a women's dormitory", the Day One Edition of Gun Gun Pixies comes in a special Nintendo Switch collector's box that includes the game and a high quality artbook! Countless concept drawings, gorgeous key artworks, all characters in alternative outfits and more make this goodie an indulgence for every manga/anime lover.
Wholesome anthropological stuff, then. After checking out some videos of the PS Vita version, we're not convinced that this is the saucy Chibi-Robo we might have hoped - the critical reception seems to be 'mixed' to say the least, with the shooter mechanics in particular coming in for criticism. We doubt that was an area of development focus for makers Compile Heart, though. Still, different strokes!
Will this Day One Edition be a Day One purchase for you? Think that there's more to this than meets the eye? Let us know if we've got this one all wrong in the comments.

The game's story makes all of the sense.
ok then....... uhhhhh
Got to love the Japanese and their wacky game ideas.
I'm sure the artbook in that special edition is going to be all kinds of tasteful...
I love a good game trailer that shows nothing of the game.
Safe for work? lol
The switch will became the dumpingground for all the terrible vita games now sony gave up on handhelds
100% looking forward to this game ^_^
oh this is gonna be good, but much better theatrics will be seeing the triggered people reacting to this, no money can buy that
@nofriendo - I feel like the angle of "little girls" is disingenuous. Unless there is some form of dormitory for highschoolers in Japan that I am unaware of, they're obviously trying to pitch this game of "legally aged women."
The artwork, on the other hand, is another story. Japan has some wierd passion for 300 year old pre-teen styles for god knows what.
I'm guessing this is another stupid hentai game like the countless ones you see on Steam.
...At least the anime girls look normal here.
@Paraka @NintendoFan4Lyf
My problem isn’t with the supposed age of the girls, however, it takes a heroic act of willful ignorance if you don’t read pedophilia into the style of artwork and age-old obsession with violating youth and innocence that is implicit in a lot of Manga and very alive and well and EXPLICIT in a lot of other Manga.
This turns unclothing non-consenting girls into a game.
That’s a problem.
Period.
@nofriendo - Well, not defending this, but don't we also have games that turn brutal murder into games as well?
Hell, to take it a step further, we have made assault into games long before video games were a thing. Also a thing that is a problem.
@Joeynator3000 Its not hentai. Console owners don't allow uncensored eroge for whatever reason. Or atleast companies seems not release eroge on consoles.
@NintendoFan4Lyf
The whole damn game is problematic, regardless of who the target audience is. And let me tell you who the target audience is. People who think simulating rape and assault is entertaining and arousing. Let’s go to bat for ‘em. And before you give me a false equivalent, yes, I think games where you go around shooting people are also problematic, and I don’t play them. If you game as an adult engaging with the world, who’s taking part in these conversations with real women, who’s engaging in dialogue about representation and toxicity in the media, then you don’t shut off your conscience when you pick up your Pro controller, and you don’t shut down criticism when it’s leveled at something you’re not invested in. You’re not the target audience but you’re speaking out for them, raising your voice for them. I’m doing the same thing, but for the targets.
@Paraka Absolutely. 100% agree.
Comment section to any video nowadays "My way or the highway, no room for discussion or difference of opinion"
Why think rationally when you can think extreme's, black or white. You are with us or against us.
I like where the world is heading
I've put this on my to get list.
@nofriendo - So you are in belief that murder in video games teach people it's okay to kill? And assault in sports taught many generations to result to violence?
On top of that, how is this false equivalence? If one reaches a set of negative traits to be okay, wouldn't it be not too far out there to assess the other claims are of comparable impact?
But honestly, I feel the pronounced reaction opposing weeb shovelware is what is drawing more to its market. There was once a time where people would laugh at how ridiculous this garbage was and forget it, along with whatever singular shrill voice in the forum who liked it too much.
Post Anita's "everything is sexist" speech, I noticed an upward trend of more people loudly denouncing the few people who liked it as lesser people, and associating others who shared neither view in a similar boat (like you have for people defending tastes of others in this topic). This in turn has been more spiteful market buying it or promoting it to literally see success it miraculously ever got before.
Because now it's morally high grounded VS. literally everyone else. And it never serves the intended solution.
I'll probably wait for a sale.
@nofriendo It's really not "a problem." No more than murdering innocent people and exploiting prostitutes in a game like GTA V is "a problem." Because, you see, it's not real. It's harmless. And, to be honest, it's not even particularly explicit.
It sounds like YOU have a problem with it, though, and, if you do, I invite you not to purchase it.
Nothing to see here, just more weeb garbage.
Before I clicked: "I hope this is a crazy shmup featuring pixie girls who blow up a lot of stuff.
After I clicked: "what"
@NintendoFan4Lyf You are my kind of people. Thank you.
@Paraka Ideologically-motivated people often tend to view everything through the lens of that ideology. As such, to them, there is no such thing as "mere" entertainment, or fun for the sake of fun. Art and entertainment are social messaging, and so their primary value is propagandistic in nature.
@Ralizah - I think a lot of reliance on emotional reaction build the propagandistic extremism, little concern to logical parts of analysis. You feel it is right, and anyone not on your side becomes more and more against you, then you rail against them harder and harder til they become your self-fulfilling prophecy.
As I said earlier, the nature of the progressive activism on a nobody-cared game is affective to bringing it success, cause many were likely coming in here to make fun of weeb trash games. Now more are likely to talk about this game in tandem to these reactions, which is garner more for the game itself. I really doubted many were coming in here genuinely interested in the game save for the remarks of how ironically excited they are cause of pseudo-perversion.
This makes me want to cosplay 🧚
@Ralizah
Basic media theory would set all this to rest. Everything is political. Everything has a message. Not having a message, is indeed a message, especially when one trucks in fraught subject matters irresponsibly. Ignorance isn’t an excuse, it’s bliss bought at someone else’s expense. There’s a huge, logicless abyss between it’s not real and it’s harmless. And, of course, it IS real. And just because you can’t litigate it, doesn’t mean it bears mindless consumption.
When I die, my only regret will be that I was too proud to play this game.
@AlternateButtons Hasn’t been disproven at all, silly fellow. It just hasn’t been successfully litigated. For powerful reasons, some of them very good. If you think you can engage with violence (or simulation thereof) neutrally, you’re a tool, quite literally.
Adding to the wishlist. It just looks so ridiculous...and the art is well done.
@nofriendo - Wouldn't any game make one become such a tool due to its simulation of various thing such as flying a plane, driving a car, or operating any other destructive and dangerous machines as well? Is this only applicable to violent and/or titillating games?
So this is what PQube was teasing. From what I understand, it never left Japan on Vita; between this and the upcoming Moero release, there's certainly a temptation to see another illustration of the certain [alleged] "climate shifts" in the console space.
And while one can expect Male Gaze trope to run amok in such games (before the trailers and gameplay videos alleviate the very trouble of expecting), it's all the more refreshing when at least the game's very protagonist isn't heavily inspired by the target audiences wielding said male gaze in our world. XD
@Paraka I meant that if one engages in any kind of entertainment or art imagining that it is not real and therefore harmless merely because it is representational and not “actually happening”, is not engaging consciously, and therefore allowing themselves to be manipulated and influenced without having a say in the matter. There is simply no such thing as neutral art or neutral engagement with art. It’s not all harmful, of course, but the potential for harm increases dramatically when both the creator and the consumer deny the work has any impact on the world.
@nofriendo - That is a fair statement. However, if one knows and actively is aware of fantasy in such simulation, and partakes, does this increase their influence on the real world actions and in what way?
For example; Were these women who voiced this game did so knowingly what the context was? And if not/so, why did they act in accordance to an agreement to make said voices? Did they become the characters and their act to voice them make the consent of being treated as such, wouldn't that become a different discussion how these VAs have to live an example of what people expect them to be?
Me reading the comments
@nofriendo Not everything "has a message." Not in a normative sense, anyhow. You can pick out themes, ideas, and implicit assumptions from art and entertainment, of course, but it doesn't follow that entertainment is necessarily promoting or buttressing what it's engaging with. "Everything is political" for you because that's the totalizing way you view the world.
Besides, more often than not, people are just projecting their own fixations and life experiences onto the reading of a text.
EDIT: Another thing. Quite a bit of media is meant to be engaged with uncritically. If this means one is allowing oneself to be manipulated, then it is an implicitly willing manipulation. I'd rather liken what might be termed "popcorn entertainment" to something like hypnosis.
Also: Art is inherently only as harmful as the methods involved with its production. That isn't to say that, in some extreme cases, it's not obvious how some forms of entertainment can have non-desirable social effects (Birth of a Nation revitalizing the KKK, for example), but it's crucial to point out that, even in a case like this, what's actually harmful is the social environment the film was released in. To that extent, I would say that you can easily argue that all art has the potential to affect social reality in a harmful manner (putting aside the extreme subjectivity of what constitutes harm in the first place), but the burden is on you to actually demonstrate that this is actually the case.
In the case of a game like this, considering its content and audience, I feel pretty confident in calling it harmless.
Where's this to buy at?
Nofriendo wants more polarization, by depriving people of their opinion. Thought police, guilty until proven innocent.
@FrowningCoach I would totally try and police this comment for thought, but I just can’t find any.
@nofriendo Nuff said. Can't add anything to that really. You do realise you are talking about your own comment right? Or were you referring to my comment? "@FrowningCoach I would totally try and police this comment for thought, but I just can’t find any."
@Paraka There’s a rich history of co-opting the oppressed to participate in their own oppression. If that seems dramatic to you it’s because it is, but what’s happening here exists on the same spectrum. And of course not every woman will agree with me here.
I think it’s very likely the women knew the context of their voice work, but that’s neither here nor there. A job is a job and we’re not talking about commiting a crime. It’s a highly normalized problem, in my opinion, which is why people get up in arms when they’ve got no skin in the game. And point to the fact that it happens elsewhere and with other types of violence across all media, as if that somehow makes it better or OK! I’m advocating against unthinking engagement with this stuff, which of course will mean less fun. And maybe I’m projecting my own “fixation”, which we will more kindly call awareness, in the hope that people will see the wisdom in rejecting this kind of toxic entertainment. Especially when the Nintendo logo pops onto the screen beforehand.
EDIT: I also find it rich that NL highlights a game like this but deletes my initial comment because I used a curse word when calling the game out for what it is, which the community guidelines forbid because people of all ages use the site.
@FrowningCoach Yours, I’m afraid.
sure....why not...ok
@nofriendo - Curious though, where in games becomes untoxic? Due to the fact they are, like books and video media before it, designed for the sake of escaping reality for its harshness? Are we expected to act on our daily within games as we do in our personal space? If yes, why even have games? Sports promote more dangerous lifestyles, competitive games placate the brutality of violence, racing games endanger those around heavy machines alike, even Mario can be attributed to animal abuse and manipulation of consent.
@nofriendo I love your user name.
Humans have been at war since there have been humans. There is no perfect peaceful world where nothing bad ever happens nor will there ever be. Everyone at times wants to hit or hurt other people. This ideal way to live you try to preach is not something I’ve seen consistently in anybody. YOU are trying to antagonise multiple people in the name of a supposedly better way to live. These are pixels. What are you doing ?
Watched a little bit of gameplay on Youtube considering the trailer shows basically nothing and it looks fun. I'll grab it day one. Happy to support this type of game on the Switch.
@Ralizah
Good points all, but I don’t think you can divorce art from the culture, or environment, that produces it. It doesn’t show up from a neutral zone and have its fate decided in a culture unshaped by art and entertainment. There aren’t only extreme examples of harmful art, and I think it’s dangerous to judge the wrongness of something based on how normalized it is within a given culture. (Genital mutilation comes to mind). Rape culture is insidious and ubiquitous and exists in endless small and large manifestations. Just because we’re not talking Birth of a Nation level “bad art” doesn’t mean we can’t talk about what something like this contributes to a systemic problem. Both contributes and is a result of. This is a game made by men for people who find undressing women against their will titillating good fun. Is that not an accurate description? How does anybody say those words to themselves and think “harmless”? I refuse to believe this doesn’t activate anybody’s common sense.
@gazamataz Having a difficult discussion. You? Apart from bringing condescending platitudes to the table.
If anybody is curious, this speaks eloquently to a lot of the stuff I’ve tried to express here, in my flawed emotional way.
[removed]
No advertisement please
Sounds fun to me. lol It is all fictional, no harm in that.
Definitely will be getting this. It looks like a fun game to play, and if it pisses off some of the brain-dead leftists and liberals all the better!
@Andy3004 I think most people who liked The Matrix only saw a white dude shooting guns in slow motion. Cuz they seem super comfortable with faceless entities controlling what they think to sap them of their money and power.
@nofriendo
Never cared about "The Matrix". Crap movie IMHO.
I did like Battle Royale though.
However when it comes to violent movies, nothing beats Stanley Kubrick take on 'A Clockwork Orange'. Brutal, violent... but a masterpiece.
Well this was unexpected. Did not thought this would come to the west XD
@Andy3004 That is a reasonable thing to say.
"And maybe I’m projecting my own “fixation”, which we will more kindly call awareness, in the hope that people will see the wisdom in rejecting this kind of toxic entertainment."
Would this go one step further and if another came out and said racing game promote reckless driving be entirely in the same realm of awareness? Where does the toxicity end in games? What is a responsible level of "escapism" in media?
Also, how come I have not seen you denounce a few of the other current topics here for their violent tones? I've only seen you get this stoic about a stance when sexism is involved.
Not gonna be part of this comment war, but gonna just say......... @nofriendo is just saying his opinions and are not facts!
@Paraka because I don’t have a personal history with violence but I do know and love women who are impacted by these things, and there is some violent media I do engage with and enjoy (I love reading thrillers and watching martial arts films).
Personally I find this kind of game disturbing. It's not for me so I won't get it. End of.
Games like this make me sad about humanity.....sigh
Kudos to Nintendo Life your making clear exactly what kind of game this is so that people can make choices for themselves and for their kids.
@Paraka Reckless driving isn’t a system of oppressing women that is reinforced by corporations to sell you stuff and control the way you think.
@nofriendo - Wouldn't this also go against your much earlier statement that violent media is normalizing violent and brutal behavior? The context you even stated you're against?
Reckless driving is still violent and aggressive, and very Deadly. The other topic you claimed false equivalency to because the context of this particular discussion was that games like this normalize negative traits like sexism. Why ignore other traits that are being normalized?
@Paraka Definitely. The hipocrisy (or inconsistency) of this stance on violent media (and only some kinds, usually not the gun or gore kinds) is somehow livewithable as compared to the misogyny stuff (probably because I am not surrounded by violence or even touched by it, but I am surrounded by women, only one of whom actually touches me lol).
@nofriendo
Fortunately most folks here on the forum don't have any personal history with violence... But still, what is your point? The games being published are just fantasy. And they actually don't depict any kind of violence against women - most are based in a high-school setting with a boy-meets-girl scenario... so basically, a scene everyone is accustomed with. (And I mean this regardless of gender!)
Don't tell me you never fell in love with someone and went out heartbroken afterwards!! (Because in that case I would consider you to be nothing but a liar or something not quite being located in the human realm)
@Andy3004 Well, be fair, I’m not commenting on most, I’m commenting on this one. And the misogyny it takes to even conceive of such a game in the midst of a global revolution in gender relations and power dynamics is mindbigglingly tone-deaf or culturally illiterate at best and a rage against the dying of the light that abusers of women and abusers of power enjoy at worst. A genuine and relatable romance, how could you argue against that? I love a love story as much as the next guy. But I place conditions on the quality of the media I consume. Think of it as standing my ground in my mind, defending it against all the toxicity. Just keeping it light here folks
@nofriendo - So it's only okay for violence in video games if it aligns with your own personal tastes of "livewithable" violence? Why are those okay and "livewithable" to a point of enjoyability?
@Paraka Well honestly I judge it based on a holistic assessment. Who are the developers or artists, what are their intentions, are they handling weighty issues responsibly or recklessly, who gets exploited, basically is there any evidence I’m being handed a meaningful experience that a true artist has thought through or am I just having a dark impulse mindlessly exploited for someone else’s bottom line.
@nofriendo
You actually are out of your mind. While I'm with you that violence against women is the worst thing possible, it is ridiculous for you blaming games like these. You obviously got a leftist position, ignoring the [removed] going on in countries like Saudi Arabia or Iran, where women are treated on the same level as cattle, due to those countries sickening, vomit inducing religion.
I mean, try walking into the likes of Teheran, talking about womens right and see what happens.
Getting out of your mind because of some harmless game, while women get mutilated by the millions due to some crack-brained religion just shows what a hypocrite you are!
@Andy3004
Listen man, I never said there's a direct line of causation. I think framing it in that way does a disservice to the seriousness of the topic in discussion. This isn't some intellectual or academic phenomenon we're talking about, but something women are telling us directly every single day. What model of heroism did you ever encounter in which the hero defended not those in need, but those abusing their power over others?
And why can't we condemn oppression in totality and not just instances at one extreme of it? Have you taken anything I've said to imply I'd be comfortable with it? Are you suggesting we ignore the present problems because they're not as bad as somewhere else, and they're not as bad as in the past? If they're any better today, it's because of people who stand up for themselves and for others, not because somebody was around telling people to calm down and saying "it could be worse."
Your belief that such things are harmless tells me you haven't thought critically about it. A group of 6th-graders, if tasked with deciding whether this was a negative or a positive thing, would write lovely essays about how problematic it is. Let's not overthink it. And since there's never any science or data brought to the discussion by "liberals are brain-dead" silencers, I won't be seeking guidance on how to think and behave among them.
@nofriendo
"This is a game made by men for people who find undressing women against their will titillating good fun. Is that not an accurate description?"
I mean, you make it sound like a rape simulator. The game is more voyeuristic than anything, but sure, I'll grant that this is probably technically accurate.
Allow me another description of a game: "A game where the player has an overweight plumber use his body weight to crush animals to death."
Or: "A game for people who find it fun to enslave wild animals and abuse them by forcing the animals to brutally fight one-another."
Both are technically accurate descriptions of Mario and Pokemon games, but they're... sensationalized, y'know? Blown out of proportion. Needlessly dramatic. You can make almost anything sound insanely bad in service of an agenda. Describing a silly game where pixies mess around the dorm rooms of college girls and shoot pleasure bullets at them (or something; to be honest, I'm still not entirely sure what this game is supposed to be, even after having watched footage) as some sort of hardcore rape simulator seems disingenuous to me.
You said that art isn't produced in a vacuum, and that culture needs to be taken into account, and I actually quite agree with that. I'd also say that criticism is naturally culturally-contextual as well. In this case, we live in a time right now where there is a hyper-focus on consent and any kind of uninvited sexual behavior from men is treated as the worst thing in the world. In that sort of cultural context, it makes sense that you'd see something like this and blow it out of proportion. If our focus on sexual abuse and consent was replaced with, say, a concern over animal rights, I'm sure we'd be having this discussion about Pokemon.
With regard to harm, you seem to be conflating the idea of harm with stuff that you find offensive for whatever reason. Who, exactly, would this game be harming?
@nofriendo - Interesting, and what from this toxicity of gaming do you look for to make your judgement more tolerant of some of its aspects as opposed to others? What games do you enjoy with these attributes?
@Ralizah
You do know that the animals in Pokemon are not real, and that they are not intended to represent real animals, right? And the only real-life animals you encounter in Mario are turtles. Even those you don't kill, you just send them spinning away. Let's instead look at the intention of the creators and artists, ask yourself what kind of story they're telling, and assess everything in that context. Which is why stomping on goombas is way less problematic to me than the princess needing rescuing YET AGAIN (and yes I know there's a modest twist to this at the end of Odyssey, but not nearly enough for my comfort). The crazy thing is, these games don't require these hackneyed characterizations and hackneyed stories to be successful, not at all. It's just lazy storytelling. But then there are games that seem to delight in it, or are comfortable depicting violence but incapable or unwilling to depict its consequences, or even hint at them.
@Paraka
I love a good scifi setting and atmosphere and I really enjoy playing Warframe. In Warframe, I'm shooting at aliens (which, as I type this, also sounds problematic LOL - and not because I'm an aliens rights activist), so I feel a little protective distance from the violence, as well as an intellectual one born from my viewing most sci-fi action movies or games as wondrous kitsch. I am probably deceiving myself as to the total distance, but there you have it. I love Dark Souls and Skyrim because in the former, you're in such an immersive fantasy realm that is so far from reality, there almost isn't any gender to it, and you're wielding weapons we don't have pathological devotion or access to (guns), and the latter because it's a very nuanced and emotionally literate elaboration on running around hacking at things with a giant sword. And I love Breath of the Wild, even though the gender roles are still very rigid and uninspired, in the same vein as the Mario games.
@nofriendo I do, in fact, know that Pokemon aren't real animals who are actually being abused. Why, then, do you struggle with that same sort of distinction when it comes to pixies shooting the breasts of cartoon college girls?
Besides, a lot of the Pokemon are barely fictionalized versions of real animals in the first place.
@Ralizah Because the women look like women and are intended to be construed as women. Because the intent of the creators was to sell a game using the sexual exploitation of women, albeit by pixies, to make money. Because the creators of Pokemon are not hinting at real violence, even though they're using the same visual and narrative metaphorical vernacular. I'm asking you to consider what you're seeing in this game as violence, not participatory playfulness. It's so ingrained in our culture it's almost impossible to avoid using violent metaphors to describe things or the relationships between things. Watch any sport. Any competition. Let's stop accusing me of conflating the characters in the video games with real life. I'm conflating the developer's intention with the depiction on-screen. That's the story I'm interested in.
@nofriendo Animals biting and clawing eachother in competitions meant for human amusement isn't hinting at real violence, but pixies shooting the breasts of college girls is "sexual exploitation?" Sorry, but you've lost the plot, in my opinion. The difference between the two is that you're willing to grant that one is harmless entertainment even as you clutch your pearls about the other.
The game certainly sexualizes its characters, but describing this silliness as "sexual exploitation" is hyperbolic and devalues the actual people experiencing actual exploitation.
First off, I just want to say that this game looks kinda cute. The idea is pretty similar to Gal gun but the undressing mechanic is new. If I were interested in buying these games I'd give it a go, but we have porn and hentai now so I'm good. Would probably view screenshots of the game if that ever happens.
Secondly, for ANYONE(nofriendo) who has some sort of negative opinion on this sort of game due to how its depicted and how it's about interacting with college-aged half-naked ANIME girls, let me give you a friendly reminder: IT'S NOT REAL! NOBODY THINKS THIS IS REAL. There are bigger, more problematic issues than me playing a game made for a niche audience. Just like when someone plays a violent video game like Mortal Kombat or Fortnite and doesn't act out what they see in real life, neither is someone going to go to a Japanese high school and violate a girl in real life. You want to know what's a real problem that you can get involved in?: Girls getting kidnapped and sold in human trafficking, Incels who believe it's their birthright to have sex with whomever he wants and the woman has to comply or get murdered, big businesses who believe that profits matter more than human conditions. But no, let's worry more about the people who play fictional characters in a game about undressing age appropriate girls. You can simply not buy the game if it's that much of an issue, but don't tell people what they should and shouldn't buy based on your opinion.
Get off your soapbox and stop trying to be woke just because you want to defend something you have no control over.
@Dakotastomp The TPS aspect calls to mind Bullet Girls as well.
The Vita truly was a goldmine of boobie games.
@Ralizah If this is coming to the Switch of all things, what are the chances we will we see a port of "Doki Doki Majo Shinpan 1 + 2"?
@Dakotastomp
Yet another anti-intellectual shriek of "It's not real get over it." The message is real, that's what I'm talking about, the representation is real, that's what I'm talking about, and I literally had friends in my childhood who went around roughhousing with people yelling out in their Mortal Kombat voices "FINISH HIM" and watch any NFL game and tell me once again that people don't act out what happens in video games, that the worlds don't share any common ground, as if we unplug from the matrix just for a moment to enjoy some good old-fashioned misogyny before returning to the real world untainted by it. Every worthier cause you list is on the same spectrum as this, just further along.
Well the video was super cute, and I'm certainly intrigued by the concept but the 3rd person view is a little odd for a shooter. Mostly, that video showed me nothing at all about the actual gameplay.
@nofriendo What message? That women have breasts and thighs? OH WOW! This is shocking news to me. And the representation... of moe eyed anime girls... with child-like bodies... is real? What a fun filled place the inside of your head must be. If the representation were real, they would have used actually realistic looking models and used a male MC perving and peeping on the girls' dorm. This is mindless fun for a niche audience. You are not that audience. You have nothing to gain from protesting against this sort of game, so why ruin other's fun who might be interested in it? You aren't actively helping the feminist movement by commenting very opinonativley about why you don't like this one. If you don't like it? fine, that's cool. More power to ya, but if you go on trying to convince others that this is a sexist and explicit game that has a negative impact on women or whatever it is you're trying to defend, you're really reaching for something to argue about and probably never banged before either. Don't tell me you never had feelings about someone and you had to expel your pent up desire through a cartoon or movie or game. Also, The matrix, a movie that revolves around kung-fu and violence, is still fiction and yet no kid ever went around shooting and killing people thanks to that movie. Why would you defend violence in games, holistic or not, and look down on games that sexualize the female body or sex in general, a beautiful act that should have more respect and be brought up more in the world of gaming? At least in this game, I'm not killing innocent people just to get the money or for shock value. Games like these are silly and based on ecchi tropes, but it's not setting women back thousands of years. I'm not saying that there aren't problems with representation of women in video games and tv, but a game like this is like a tiny inoffensive pixie compared to all the other actually huge issues women face with every day!
Thanks for proving how triggered you are and not letting this go.
@Dakotastomp Yeah, he/she should really just let it go and move on, or his head will explode on the topic XD
(not good for your mental health, just let it go and let the people enjoy different things, even it isn't in your standards......).
Like seriously, I will never do these things in reality, from these "kind" of games. It is just for fun basically. No messages/representations are attacking my brain from "these" games.
@nofriendo - So the context of human murder, as long as it is in a historically distanced time of religion-inspired fantasy, is okay cause it's distant enough to be enjoyable?
Curious, if one were to take this game's overall theme and concept; What would need to been done to make this game so distant enough to be enjoyable for you? Or what you believe should be enjoyed by everyone?
@Paraka My guess is that it should have never existed, then he'd be happy. Seriously, I just think this topic is ridiculous. Let's just wait for the game to come out, then complain. Heck, we already know this will get a 4/10 because of "2Lewd4me".
@Dakotastomp - Honestly it's just simple weaboo trash of a game as others have stated here. Probably bought by a few to actually enjoy, others are more likely to buy it in spite or actually think it will be good for novelty.
Regardless the situation, it exists, and its market does as well. That's how the world of business works. I am allergic to caffeine, but I don't demand all soda to remove caffeine (dude, that would been a dream for me in college) to honor my "rights" to enjoy any soda at any given time. My market is smaller, and obviously, Mountain Dew isn't crammed down my throat every time I go into a grocery store.
Tea is pretty cool though.
That’s probably the last time I watch a trailer before reading the article. I was so confused... I was like halfway in like “where’s the gameplay?” And then I saw a quick shooting section on top of a girl and was like “...was that it? Was that the gameplay...?”
Reading first could have helped me avoid a lot of confusion.
Buying to support such titles plus it looks like a fun and stupid silly romp.
I like the PEGI 16 for a game only involving girls looking 12-14.
Those Japanese are really good at drawing jail baits.. I mean pretty girl that are way too young... I mean!... Ah screw it. They are good at creating Pedobear approved content.
@Andy3004 Please mind your language!
@Lumine @LuciferOnReddit You can find gameplay on Youtube, since it is already out on the Vita.
This looks really interesting. Day one buy for me, if I can find a place that ships it to Australia for normal price.
I'm pretty sure the devs said that it may never come to the west, due to its theme. Quite surprised a game like this is coming out at all, but what can you say? It is Japan after all.
