Title: Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII ライトニング リターンズ ファイナルファンタジーXIII
Platform: PS3
Genre: RPG
Language: Japanese
Company: Square Enix
Summary: Mm, I was originally going to wait on this like I did for XIII-2, but then I saw that the battle system is closer to Type-0… Putting some faith in you here, Squenix!!

I wish foremost that they didn’t call the lowest difficult mode “Easy”, the tiers should start at “Normal” and then “Hard” and then something like “Insanity” for the unlockable.

Title: Uta no Prince-sama Music 2 うたの☆プリンスさまっ♪Music 2
Platform: PSP
Genre: Rhythm Game
Language: Japanese
Company: Broccoli
Summary: S ranked most of the pro songs much faster than the first Music game, but there are 2 songs I’m not sure if I’ll ever get. Or at least one for sure, Otoya’s SMILE MAGIC…

It was a lot easier to S-rank the songs in general this time, but I think mostly in part to just getting used to the system. On the other hand, those songs they’ve added extra challenge to get… I’ll keep trying!

Title: Danball Senki Wars ダンボール戦機ウォーズ
Platform: 3DS
Genre: Strategy + Action RPG
Language: Japanese
Company: Level-5, tri-Ace (development)
Summary: Bummed about the one month delay… Was fine waiting for it.
I will also be forever bummed that they’ve moved off the Vita altogether. 3DS graphics are so inferior to it.
But yeah… my bottom line if the rest of the review is tl;dr… DANBALL SENKI AND DANBALL SENKI W ARE BETTER.

Title: Uta no☆Prince-Sama♪: All Star [うたの☆プリンスさまっ♪All Star]
Console: PSP
Genre: Otome
Language: Japanese
Company: Broccoli
Summary: The game where Ringo gets a haircut and looks cute ^q^… Oneee of these days I should properly go through the routes, but very likely I will never get back to them. Again, I’ve been skipping through all the story just to unlock the music.

It could just be me, I’ll look into the difficulties later, but the Hard Lvl 3 is wayyyy too easy for all the songs in this title. I’ve pretty much S-ranked all of them on first try so far. ._______.

Title: Ni no Kuni
Platform: PSP
Genre: Monster raising, RPG
Language: Japanese
Company: Bandai Namco
Summary: It took me a long time to realize, but the fact that they’re releasing the game internationally under the Japanese title instead of something like “Kingdom of Ni” is stating something in itself. Dual audio, I am ready for you.

I’ve beaten the game at under 35 hours, including a lot of sidetracking for doing as many sidequests I could do without going too far out of my way just to complete the sidequest list.
