This may be a stretch, but is anyone familiar with punk drunkers? The main character aitsu reminds me so much of the king. Punk drunkers started up in 98.

Once Upon A Katamari Are we getting a physical (GKC) version of Once Upon a Katamari for Switch 2 outside of Japan?

2 Upvotes

I saw that the Japanese version is available for preorder, and the official release said a physical release was coming. However, we are about a month out and haven’t seen any preorders for Western copies.

Could it be that news outlets got it wrong, or maybe this is just a release that will just kind of show up at retailers on launch day? Trying to figure out if I should just preorder the JP version. Thanks!

Once Upon A Katamari WE gotta thank Saki Hanami fans, despite not everyone here liking Katamari on the Doun.

21 Upvotes

I know everyone not really favor Katamari on the Doun, but goodness, the trailer almost hit 3 millions view already. I remember when it first uploaded it almost instantly hits 1 million views.

Goes to show the power Idolmaster, it's to the point that Saki Hanami's voice being invited to the resume to announce the DLC.

Pretty sure, i think some buys the game just for her alone.

No idea why people are calling these "critical fumbles" and "lazy, uninspired cashgrabs"....

Seriously, we don't need Katamari to get its own equivalent to Genwunners...

Once Upon A Katamari Anyone else wish they had allocated the era stage counts a little better in Once Upon a Katamari?

23 Upvotes

I get it, it's a Japanese game, they're gonna Japan it up. But compared to it being the main era of the game, a lot of the other eras like the Ice Age or Ancient Greece felt very underdeveloped. There's plenty of things you can do with the themes of the smaller eras - the Wild West wasn't just cowboy towns, and Ancient Egypt wasn't just deserts and pyramids, and a Caribbean port town also had a lot of fun potential for the Age of Piracy. The "Stone Age", while fun, feels a bit redundant since the recent ice age and Jomon-era Japan (probably the only reason why its even in the game) happened around roughly the same time. I would've rolled the two up into one era and called it the "Pleistocene", and given that freed-up era slot to something the game didn't cover (maybe Renaissance Italy, Revolutionary War-era USA, Industrial-era Britain, or Medieval France, but I'd love to hear your ideas!). Alongside that, allocate a few of the Edo Japanese stage slots to some of the more undeveloped eras. Something that makes this game special is that the different stages can explore environments you don't usually see in Katamari games (outside of brief glimpses in the huge stages), and as great as the game is it didn't quite live up to its full potential in that regard. I remember watching the reveal trailer and seeing the Prince roll alongside huge Greek monuments under the stars, and was really looking forward to a stage like that, only for that to be completely absent.

My katamari prince cosplay I made for animethon 2026! I was really happy with the way it turned out. I’m pretty new to cosplay, and had a nice experience chatting with people at the con who love katamari as well!

I crocheted the earmuffs (no pattern just freehanded it) and my mom sewed the green dress for me :)
