A new Sgt. Frog (Keroro Gunso) game, “Sgt. Frog ☆ Wacky TV Show — Operation: Get the Prize Money, Sir!”, has been announced, but it turns out the PS5 isn’t among the supported platforms.
On the forum, users who’d hoped it would be a “PS5 exclusive” came in for mockery, and the discussion spun off into debates over the physical release and the Steam version’s performance.

Sounds like just the kind of game the Switch crowd (orig. "Shou-chan," a slur mocking Switch owners) would love.
Did the Nintendo fanboys ("Nishi-kun") really want to play Keroro that bad?

It was the Switch crowd who wanted it, wasn't it 😄

Say that to the Switch fanboy who started this thread:
"First new Keroro game since the PS2! 'Operation: Get the Prize Money, Sir!' announced! Is the hardware PS5?!"

Not much point releasing it on hardware that's dropped discs and doesn't even sit on store shelves.

Physical sales matter most for the elementary/middle-school crowd, though…

Is this even a game worth making a fuss about?
Guess they've got so few games to play they're begging even for this one 😭
It's Steam, dominated by low-spec machines.
Feels like they're only releasing it there out of pity.

If it were at least coming to PS5 too, fine — but getting skipped entirely is hilarious.

This is what happens when the Switch crowd doesn't buy games.
Keroro's not a AAA title, so of course it's not coming to PS5.
Be glad, honestly — if it had come out, people would've called it "a kids' game," just like you always say about Switch, right?

The Nintendo fanboys ("Boo-chan") singing their happy chorus again today.

Today of all days, "PS5 is handicapped" (a pun on the Switch-fan slur "Shou-chan," meaning "handicap") is spreading among the general public.
Of course they're in a good mood.

Of course they're in a good mood.
But seriously, it'll probably launch sometime next year, by which point PS5 will have already dropped physical media — so there's no point releasing it there anyway.
You can't trip over your own hype and then yell "don't laugh at me!"
Even for a game like this, they were dreaming of a PlayStation exclusive?
That's a little too desperate, don't you think.

Sour grapes, much?

Tell that to your buddy who excitedly started a PS5 thread going "You really want this?" lol
First new Keroro since the PS2! Is it a PS5 exclusive?!
lolololol
lolololol
Wait, didn't Keroro games come out on DS and stuff before?
I actually kind of liked the Tales-style one.

PS5 has so little to play that people were begging even for Keroro,
and on top of that, the begging didn't even pay off.

Sad in two different ways 😭

They could've just made a PS5 version alongside the Switch one,
but apparently even that cost isn't worth recouping.

If it's next year, physical discs will already be gone by then, so it's completely out of the question…

It'd be one thing if they just didn't buy it — but they go around shouting "Nintendo has crappy graphics!" and actively sabotage sales.
You can't just half-heartedly throw them a bone like that.
How many times have they repaid kindness with betrayal already?

No wait…
nobody needs Keroro anyway…

This just proves they were dying of jealousy over kids' games all along, doesn't it.

Not some slapped-together cash-in like this — if it were a real Keroro RPG in the lineage of the ones the Tales team developed, I'd genuinely want to play it.

Is PlayStation getting treated like Xbox even for Japan-focused games now?
Is the Japanese user base just dead?

Dropping physical media was probably the final blow.
It's genuinely fallen to about the same status as Xbox now.

Forget that — the sales for Orbitals, the Switch 2 third-party exclusive, look like they're in real trouble.

"Vinegared rice," I guess (likely a typo — meaning unclear).
One look at the Gamescom lineup and it's obvious nobody needs garbage like this.
Getting snubbed has sent the Nintendo fanboys into a meltdown.
