~ MAMI INOUE ~
Hudson Soft / SOFIX / Red
Super CD-ROM
1992
Do yourself a favor and check out my disgruntled cousin Zigfriedhopov's Mami Inoue review, even if you're not the slightest bit interested in the title (and I don't suppose that anyone is). It's a very good and very funny piece. I don't really have much to add to what my thorough kinsman says about the game, except that I find it to be so bad and so dumb that it actually ends up being pretty damn funny and even entertaining; and the "point and laugh" moments keep on coming because it moves along a lot more quickly than many of the other bad comic-style games for the Duo.


As perceptive Zigfriedhopov observed, there is an ever-so-slight difference between how Mami and all the other characters are presented.


But crudely sketched or not, the shades-wearing "coach" and the time-machine-eating dinosaur are impact characters who will never be forgotten.


The plot is quite the exciting up-and-down ride. Scenes of brutal violence are followed by uproarious antics.
But yeah, to be serious for a moment, if you absolutely must have one of these "teen idol" titles, walk away from this crap and go for Kagami no Kuni no Legend instead, as it's actually a pretty good game.
