Games Pata-Pata-Pata-Japanese Child Rearing!
Posted by Earnest "Nex" Cavalli on Sun, Jan 4, 2009 at 11:08 PM
Japanese kids look like tiny bundles of polite joy, but like our own tow-headed American bastard spawn, given the opportunity they'd eat you and everyone you love. The only way to soothe the savage beast, as this Japanese commerical for Patapon 2 demonstrates, is to drum their little asses right into a herd of sheep.
If you happen to be one of the few PSP owners who neglected your sworn duty to purchase the original Patapon (read: 2008's finest drum-centric, rhythm-based strategic combat game), here's a second clip from the Land of the Rising Sun demonstrating why you shouldn't make that mistake when the sequel hits our shores sometime this year.
Don't worry if it doesn't make any sense. Were it in English you'd still be confused.
