Nippon Marathon

Nintendo Switch: Disponibile su eShop “Nippon Marathon”!

Ci sono videogiochi che meritano di essere trattati. Vuoi per la loro qualità… vuoi per la loro follia. È il caso di Nippon Marathon, un videogioco fatto in Birmingham che si rivela come “stereotipo giapponese”. Ispirato ai vari giochi orientali come “mai dire Banzai” oppure “Takeshi’s Castle“, permetterà al giocatore di affrontare corse improbabili assieme ai propri amici.

Questo titolo, però, proporrà una collaborazione interessante: Diana Garnet – famosa nell’ambiente J-pop per aver cantato le sigle di Naruto e Mew Mew – collaborerà al progetto cantando alcune delle canzoni proposte!

Il gioco è già disponibile su eShop al prezzo di €12,99. Qui di seguito vi lascio il comunicato ufficiale in lingua inglese. Per ulteriori novità su questo gioco buffo, continuate a seguirci!

Who’s Diana Garnet? Originally from Washington D.C., while teaching English in Tokyo she participated in NTV’s singing contest “Nodojiman the World”, winning the grand prize in Spring 2013, starting her journey towards a major debut later that year!

Diana’s interests include reading manga, watching anime & baseball, playing games, singing karaoke (especially enka), Karate and eating everything from unagi to curry bread.

Today, she’s active as not only a singer, but also as one of the few bilingual voice actresses working in Japan. Additionally, she hosts a TV show, a radio show and enjoys frequent guest appearances, covering anything from music performance to anime and Go-based subculture!

Today, Diana Garnet, developer Onion Soup Interactive and PQube send a lovely video message to fans of Japanese culture and party games about the upcoming launch of Nippon Marathon! The singer of the Naruto Shippuden outro “Spinning World” or Meow Meow Japanese History’s ending theme “Thank You for the Music” recorded a song to be featured in the crazy Japanese party game. Nippon Marathon releases worldwide todayNippon Marathon is billed as Micro Machines meets Takeshi’s Castle – a hell for leather physics-heavy race across Japan. Slip into your Narwhal Onesie, Lobster Suit, School Uniform or… er… dog body and charge through locations across Japan!

Stay at the front of the pack to make your competitors disappear at the end of the screen and gain stars – then the race resets to the last checkpoint until the finish line where the racer with the most stars wins!
