FUCK YOU KONAMI! What have you done?
ParaParaKing \| 1:13 PM on 06.03.2009	24 comments

Seriously everyone at Konami just go and kill yourself. After 11 years you finally decided to bring my favorite game series over to the US and decided to turn it into an abomination like this:

First the news about Pop'n Music moving over to the Wii came out a little while ago and I was a bit sad, because I wouldn't be able to use my PS2 arcade style controller. I have been waiting for a new home console Pop'n Music for a long time, because the last one came out in 2007, so I was at least a bit happy about a new Pop'n Music game.

BUT I wasn't prepared for this. A strangely stripped down version with Miis dancing in the background? Seriously? Why Konami? Why is this happening?

This is brilliant compared to their first attempt at bringing the series over. Ever heard of Beat n Groovy for XBLA? (shudder)

What Video Cognito said.

NO ZOE, NO CARE.

Konami can't talk until it's something about ZOE 3

Well I really dont want anyone at Konami to kill themselves. That means no metal gear :(

My only knowledge of this series comes from Topher yelling "Beat n Groovy sucks!" on an episode of RFGO!

This is going to be worse than the Taiko Drum Master localization.

I don't know how Konami knew about the freaky recurring dream I've been having, but that's it right there.

This is not Pop'N'Music. This is Pop'N'Crap.

This isn't Metal Gear.

I do agree what they did is an abomination mind.

Breaking: All of the songs have also been replaced with Myley Cirus and Jonas Brothers hits. It also has motion controls and voice work by Vin Diesel.

@Niero

Ya know, I would totally buy that.

now to post something that isn't ZOE3 hatred...

it's sad to see we finally get some type of actual PopNMusic game here (that isn't beatNGroovy) and it's this shit....

and then this reminded me of that shitty excuse of a Beatmania America got...
