Who the heck? ▼
I'm mainly a J-gamer at the core who also has an itch for retro and indie games. Most played and preferred genres include RPG, TBS, RTS, 2DVS, and Visual/Kinetic/Sound Novels (especially love mystery VNs), though gaming experience include a much wider range, and has been a gamer since the time of the Famicom (over 20 years.) I also play SHMUPs and platformers but isn't that great at the former, especially the danmaku hell types.
Racing & flight sims are usually played only in the arcades, and I almost never touch sports games (with a few rare exceptions). Usually fails terribly at most TPS/FPS games due to general lack of interest and inexperience, but wouldn't mind playing them with friends if only because I'm living in North America right now and 90% of the people I meet don't seem to play what I like. Robot action games are usually an exception to the FPS/TPS thing and I do play pretty well in those (Armored Core anyone?) Stealth is also an exception to the TPS/FPS rule, though I've never played one with an engaging character/plot outside of the MGS series.
Will often play eroge as well as long as they have good story and/or interesting/fun game-play/mechanics or characters. These are usually from Alicesoft or Nitro+.
Does not own any Microsoft consoles as they consist mainly of North American games that I care nothing about (that horde of FPS games they keep churning out for some reason every season every year.) Will only get a Vita when they release a red one so I can Gigante Hammer someone with it (or if they release a SRW on it I guess.)
Still need to fill out a lot of old PSX, SFC and Famicom entries.
Owned consoles: NES (Gone), SFC, PSX, PS2 (Kinda dead), PS2 (Slim), DSL, PSP-1000, PS3 (Fat), Wii
