Well, this AKB48 game is just sadReally, Nintendo and Kadokawa Games? This is the best you can do for AKB48? And to think that way back at the beginning of the season I was worried that the AKB48 anime would end up a cheap cash-in. Seems that judgment falls to this 3DS-bound abomination, AKB48 + Mii, featuring the likenesses of AKB48 members vaguely translated into Nintendo's signature Mii design. As to what the game even is, it's (as expected), a dancing and singing minigame collection featuring (naturally) the music and dancing of AKB48. Sigh. Did you know?
