Quote: | Punch-Out!!™ launches May 18 and brings back all of the fun of the beloved, classic NES® game that thrilled players in the early 1990s. Boxers battle as iconic hero Little Mac as they fight their way through a cast of new and familiar boxing opponents on their quest to win the coveted WVBA (World Video Boxing Association) Championship Belt. |
Quote: | In The Legendary Starfy™ game, which launches June 8, players dive into a spectacular undersea adventure with Starfy, the legendary hero of Pufftop. Players swoop into enemies like a shooting star, glide over bottomless chasms and transform into powerful creatures to help a mysterious, bunny-eared visitor find his lost memory. |
The second one is a shocker...I expected Stafy (or Starfy, as it is now) to remain Japan-exclusive. |

I am officially shocked. Even I thought it would remain Japan-Only. Maybe Itoi might actually remake the Mother Trilogy, and have new music composed, so that it would actually be passable in America.
Other than that, Nintendo promotes their upcoming lineup, and has no time to mention Pokémon Platinum? Guess Pokémon is too popular to fit in with the regular crowd, huh? |

Starfy sounds more like slang for vomit, or some kind of sexual act that is performed without proper consent. |

ABOUT TIME NoA! ABOUT TIME YOU STARTED TO SAY "SCREW REGION EXCLUSIVE GAMES"! I just hope they continue this, and port every last region specific game there is, as long as they still have rights to it. >:U |

The name for Stafy was actually Stafy in M&L:SS...
The movie poster said "Legend of Stafy". |

I assumed "Stafy" was supposed to be prounced "St-ah-fee" instead of "Staffy." Whether I'm right or wrong, though, it doesn't matter. He's a star/starfish; makes sense that his name is related to "stars," amirite?
Meh, in truth, I don't give a shit for the game, although I'm sure kids will eat it up.

Yeah, but honestly. "Star-fee" doesn't sound as good as "Stah-fee" |
