Have you ever been playing BlazBlue on your PS3 or 360 and suddenly wondered what the game would be like without the gorgeous graphics and if every character had really big heads? No? Well, have you wondered what it would be like if the controls were simplified and the game was a free-roaming, multiplayer brawler? No, again? Fine, don't blame me for your lack of excitement when I tell you that all those things are coming in the form of DSiWare game BlazBlue Battle X Battle.
Arc System Works has announced that they will be releasing Battle X Battle for 500 DSiWare point in Japan thIS January. The game will be a simplified brawler that will allow up to four players to compete wirelessly. While you probably picked up on my sarcasm in the first paragraph, this could be a bit of fun if they aren't just shoveling it out to have a BlazBlue game on both portable gaming systems as BlazBlue Portable is landing on the PSP only a month later. To tell you a secret, I like simplified brawlers over complex fighting games any day.

Who knows? Could kick ass. Could be dangerous. Could totally suck.
CHIBI SOVIET POWAH!
Because you touch yourself at night.
BlazBlue should stay where it can be beautiful. If you want to completely change it, start a new franchise =/.
