Dean Takahashi's 9-year old daughter reviews LocoRoco; writes better than me

Hey, I thought it was funny. :D

Not really. She's a nine year-old girl who's posting her review of a game on her dad's blog - seems more than a little unfair to make her the target of some wanker's idea of a joke.

She didn't post it, her dad did for her. Most likely she'll never even see it.

Rubbish. Her dad may well have posted it for her, but if she's anything like any of the children I know she'll be wanting to see her work online, and depending on how net-savvy she is, wanting to see what comments there are.

It's a rather unfunny joke at her expense, and I just think it's a little cruel.

:lol How likely do you think it'd be for a 9 year old to understand the joke even? Stop being so high and mighty over something that doesn't matter. It won't win you any points on this forum, so don't bother.

This game is for younger kids such as five- or six-year-olds. Older kids might not like it. The music is for two- or three-year-olds. It gets annoying with the baby singing. If you beat the level, you get a prize. I haven't beaten the whole level yet so I don't know what the prize is. I'd give this game a one out of four star rating.

QFT. Reminds me of every Kirby game I played.

I love she. 9-year old girl? WOW! :D

What? You can win points on this forum??? Do you get a prize if you beat the level?

Time ago I earned some revolution points. Now a days, don't get nothing :(

I don't particularly care about winning points, I just dislike this kind of bullshit. You think it's funny? Fine, and you're more than welcome to say so.

Yeah, I didn't check wikipedia, but it should be your first stop if you want to know more

He's not Keita Takahashi. Dean is a journalist/writer.
