    I didn't even know this came out in America until I found the quick look.
     
    WHY DID THEY CHANGE IT FROM GO GO MINON!?
     
    It was such a good name, and it completely informed you of what you were about to purchase..
     
    I'm going back to pretending this never left Japan and UK.

    If it is wrong to love insane Japanese import games, then I don't want to be right.
     
    Man, I gave up on this thing ever going to the US and now that it does it has some horrible ass name and not even laugh worthy voice acting.

    Well, if they were going for matching the original release, I guess they nailed it.

    See that shit jumps off the damn page. It flows man. Hell, at least the PAL version was called Minon: Everyday. That's at least a little better than Domino Rally. It's just so generic and bland. No one is going to buy a game called Domino Rally unless they are misled into thinking it is a spiritual successor to Mr. Domino. But you'd buy friggin' Go! Go! Minon if you like crazy ass Katamari shit. Damn right you would.

    @LordXavierBritish: Dude, it is just a title, it's still the same game. If you don't like it play the damn import.

    @Snail: I am the only one that knew this game existed for 2 years. I reserve the right to be angry about stupid inconsequential shit that is completely irrelevant in the long run because I was never going to buy it anyway.

    @LordXavierBritish: No. Let me tell you what's happening here. You like this game and all, and that is fine. What I am not liking is your annoying, elitist attitude of "I was the only one who knew of this game for 2 years". Even so, that does not make it your game, some people might prefer the new title, and the normal people don't give a shit. You're treating this game as if it were your own personal treasure simply because you believe to be the only living being in the Western World to know of this game. No, you do not reserve the right to be angry about a title change more than a person that fell in love with the game yesterday. You cannot measure how much a person likes a game by the amount of time said person has longed for, or know of, said game. I, for instance, only got into inFAMOUS shortly before its release, and turns out it is my favorite game of 2009. 
     
    Let's just not go there. 
     
    You are a crazy fanboy that is happy to have found something that no one else knows off, hereby granting you somewhat of a feeling of superiority, and as such, you believe you have the right to make a thread in CAPS LOCK complaining about something as insignificant as the title of the game. Yes, you have that right, but it is stupid. If you really liked the game as much as you say you do, a measly title would not affect your desire to own the game. 
     
    Now stop acting like a child on the internet. You are wasting your time.

    @Snail: Apparently you missed the hint of sarcasm and the complete non-nonchalant attitude I hold towards the game. it is my own little treasure sure, and I've been using the character as my avatar for almost two years now so I do hold some personal emotional investment in it.  However I don't feel as though I have some fucking authority of opinion over us.
     
    I don't really give a shit if the name of the game changed, because the fact is that it kind of actually sucks. I like the deliberately crappy art style and it pretty much ends there. The gameplay is bland and repetitive with no real depth, and I certainly fail to see any novelty in it. I simply acknowledge it as an oddity and that is it.
     
    I'm not some fucking self righteoughs asshole who feels empowered to speak down to others simply because I've given myself some false sense of entitlement.
     
    It's a joke.
     
    To summarize: I do believe you missed the point old boy; or does all caps no longer symbolize feigned ignorance on the internet?
     
    It's been ever so long.
