Matching Maker 4 Lets You... I Don't Know, Walk?

In my mind this is some sort of bad/great Japanese SimCity clone? I can't tell.

Judging from 1:10 in this is a Tycoon game with an avatar for the Tycoon (aka you) which does yoga...

GOTY right there.

All I wish to know is why is this called Matching Maker when its just a Sim City type of game.?

Will there be women and men? Can I make them date each other?

I'm not sure I can buy a game from someone who can't make a trailer that doesn't have frame rate issues.

TOWER RECORDS!

I miss Tower Records. Those indie music warehouses in L.A. are all full of douche-bags.

MATCHINGU MAKER 4!!!!!!
 
Oh wow that just made me realize there are three more of these. Now I think GB needs to do a retrospective on the previous titles so we can see the evolution of the game through the years and the origin of the yellow hat man.
