Keiji Inafune is shooting lasers out of his face in an RPG

Well, it's official: Keiji Inafune has the best life ever. According to this week's issue of Dengeki PlayStation (as translated by Andriasang), the former Capcom head will appear in Idea Factory's upcoming PS3 RPG Hyperdimension Neptunia mk-II -- a bizarre outcome of an even more bizarre marketing partnership between Inafune and the game's publisher, Compile Heart. The real magic comes from the descriptions of his character's special abilities, such as the "Donnahandanda Nova," in which Inafune opens up his mouth, and vomits out an assumedly potent laser beam.

We can't decide what's more wonderful: The aforementioned power, or "Creator Sword Inafune," in which Inafune wields an actual photograph of himself, much like one would wield a sword. Nope! Wait, forget what we said. That's obviously the most wonderful thing we've ever heard.

Already off to some thing great.

what happend to the homeage? everything is smashed to the left side of the screen

There are a few simple things Neptunia could've done to be a better RPG, but I never would have thought to insert Keiji Inafune's laser-shooting head.

God I love you, Japan.

Hyperdimension Neptunia was OK. If Mk2 can fix some of the issues it could be a great game! Now to wait good news from NISa that they picking MK2 up for translation.

I'm gonna start putting two exclamation points at the end of my signatures now.
"This guy is really confident" is what people will say

Keiji Inafune is winning! Eat your heart out, Charlie Sheen.

@Alexisonfire
That will +2 internets for you good sir.

HN1 completely slipped under the radar for me and sold out almost immediately when it was released here. The game was released in Japan and localized and released in the US, but I had to purchase it from Play-Asia which had in turn imported their copies from the U.S....

I kind of wish I had my game's frequent flyer miles as a pack-in bonus.
