Captain Rainbow: Crazy about Famicom Wars

Captain Rainbow is back with its weekly dose of concentrated retro Nintendo weirdness. In the latest trailer, the soldiers from the original Famicom Wars take a longing look at last week's narrator, Crazy Tracy, as she eats Pocky and lounges around on her throne. The soldiers are the ones driven crazy, it seems.
Aside from Tracy, their main concern is winning volleyball medals in order to attract the Mimin Bird, or something like that? We don't know where the logic is there, though it's our mistake for looking for logic in Captain Rainbow. Functionally, it means that Captain Rainbow will -- superheroically -- teach some chibi soldiers how to spike.

I still dont know what to make of this game. All I know is when I watch the Japanese ones, it reminds me of Chibi Robo. Damn those sounds got old fast.

If they don't release this in the US, I'll be a saaaad panda.
I'd also settle for a European release, if it means homebrewing the Wii to play region free, I suppose.

I can't believe this is a Nintendo game. There's a large breasted woman pulling pocky out of her cleave. WTF?

If they renamed the Famicom Wars Soldiers as the Advance Wars or Battallion Wars soldiers, it could still fly
Really, the only thing that wouldn't fly outside Japan is Takamaru, so i think this game will probably see localization at some point.

Wait which Tracy is she?
