Nothing Says Xbox 360 In Japan Like A Grown Man In A Dress

Kotaku: Like its previous title, Namco Bandai's idol simulator THE iDOLM@STER 2 is coming to the Xbox 360. Time to celebrate! In drag.

This is the latest in a series of wry ads depicting the members of "Xbox Mission Department" as they sign contracts with new titles and try not to barf. The commercials are somewhat reminiscent of the old Dreamcast spots.

Love the wtf look at the kids' faces as the Xbox Mission Department's chief belts out "Kimi to Keiyaku Shitai", or "I want to sign a contract with you".

Jesus, was there nothing else in the advertising budget?

Spenok5029d ago

Lmao good question. Obviously not.

DelbertGrady5029d ago

More like Japan in a nutshell.

Newtype5029d ago (Edited 5029d ago )

No, it's [email protected] never played it? People of the fanbase would get the commercial. It caters to the otaku fanbase.

sikbeta5029d ago (Edited 5029d ago )

WOW, way to kill the product you want to sell, OMG! the Face of the poor girls...

Redempteur5029d ago

i still don't understand why ( with a anime + oavs ) a game on ds , 3 games psp , the main saga is still on 360 only in japan ...

Another thing i don't understand with namco .. why not go multiplatform ? are they afraid of money ?

Terarmzar5029d ago

Umm What in the hell just happened...

Godmars2905029d ago

Funny, don't see anyone in that commercial laughing...

Xbox isn't doing well in Japan.....

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

LG_Fox_Brazil4d ago

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai3d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing693d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle3d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa3d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
