Dream Picks For Ouendan's Dream U.S. Release

ouendan.jpg We've previously covered DS website Neologasm's intense love for import-only Nintendo DS title 'Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan' - a love shared by GSW editors who adore the goofily chivalric rhythm-action stylings, btw.

Well, the latest Neologasm DSBlog post is subtitled: 'Songs for an English localization of Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan if Nintendo/Inis want to sell five copies to latte-swilling web 2.0 hipsters', and suggests some genuinely fun possibilities for converting the J-Pop of the original into something approximating Western-friendliness.

Suggestions include: "Bad Religion - Don't Sell Me Short. This song best expresses the central theme I wrote about before: the individual person's empowering responsibility", as well as Junior Senior's unhealthily catchy Move Your Feet, for which it's noted: "If Band Brothers Request Selection can include Dragostea Din Tei [aka the Numa Numa song], I can include this." Anyone else got any bright ideas for songs?
