Capcom Announces Poizon: Masochist Fighter
Capcom Headquarters: Japan
Capcom spokeswoman Tomoe Ishida was pleased to announce Poizon, a revolutionary new fighting game where your goal is to have your avatar get hit and suffer damage in parts of their bodies that make them experience the most pain. Only one publicity image for the game is currently available through Famitsu Media.
"We know most fighting games are about being violent and inflicting physical and psychological damage onto your opponents. This is a very archaic way of thinking that was dragging the fighting game genre down. We hope that Poizon will re-invent this sadly abandoned type of game."
A tentative release date has been set to April 31st, 2008 but no distributor or shop has any plans to stock it.
ポワゾンダブリル Poizondouble is really copyright Alchemist Soft's April Fools joke for a flight simulation game.
I couldn't resist using that image that Alchemist released for my own inane jokes. =x
Real story in Japanese here. Same story in English thanks to Google.
