Spring 2008: American balls get dodged
We don't know how today could get any better, unless we suddenly found a copy of Contra 4 in our Boo Berry (checking ... nope). Siliconera just reported that Aksys Games (also known as heroes of game publishing) will be bringing Chou Nekketsu Koukou Kunio-Kun Dodge Ball Bu to the U.S. under the ex...
Poll: New games in old franchises

Dodge Ball DS adds Dodge Fist, Dodge Kick and Dodge Panda

That's why it's so great to see their name (misspelled as "Milliom" though it may be) in the copyright i...

Virtually Overlooked: Renegade
