Nitroplus Blasterz: Heroines Infinite Duel is a game that the western distributors (Marvelous USA) have been trying to cross market to Skullgirls players but apparently don’t want to admit to having on their web site:

I stress that on their Facebook promotion, literally the only reason they can think of for you to buy this game is you’re going to get a discount if you already own Skullgirls.  That’s it – even though the game offers none of the quirk.

Unsurprisingly while it has positive reviews the majority of them barely clear two hours of gameplay and the multiplayer well…

For people making fighting games: excessive T&A didn’t save Soul Calibur: Lost Swords and it won’t save your game either.

I saw an ad on Tumblr for another battle MMO…and I was actually pleasantly surprised with most of the costume choices. While there are some ladies in impractical armor, there are also men who are clearly designed to appeal to a female audience.

I’m really not sure how long it’s going to take for the humanity to get over this idea that “MEN = MUSCLES! WOMEN=BEWBZ!” but it really can’t happen soon enough.

But, pro-tip:

If this is the best copy your marketing guys can come up with – get better marketing guys.
