I, a fine, pretty much, a huge fan of Kokopolo, have been very patient, waiting far long for more of the wildcat's madcap, high-speed, scratch-crazed antics and adventures since Kokopolo 3D got out, but there's hardly anyone, and I mean, HARDLY ANYONE, talking about Kokopolo lately, or even making tributes to the series, too, and its really discomforting me the most about the chase-'em-up series lately. I mean, it's been gnawing at my heart and mind about the continued obscurity the series still has for a long time. Hardly any references about Kokopolo to other people's work really bothers me, too.

The latest installment, "Go! Go! Kokopolo DX: Super Scratch Cat Fever", supposed to be on the Switch still hasn't been seen there YET, even with the previous establishment of its launch later on the year it was supposed to be on. I feel the more Kokopolo adventures keep getting delayed, the more people hardly talk about the series because of so much they've still been paying too much attention to. The series is a very special gem to the entirety of the handheld gaming industry, the exact one of a kind of a very special gem is that very gem the mobile gaming industry(reminder, completely separate from the dedicated handheld gaming industry, NOT meant to be as one as a whole) and smartphones never has, ever. It holds very dear to my heart and others the moment they bought the first original game through DSiWare and 3DS eShop.

Let's try to get real here about this, people.

Too much diverted attention to a lot has really thrusted the series' attention into question to me, and I really feel someone should make significant efforts to step up, get active, and get involved in increasing Kokopolo's attention and popularity to the point where it can be completely remembered in several peoples' minds, even children. And moreso, to preserve the entirety of Kokopolo's history and playability for a lot more people to enjoy in their spare time.

Shantae, for example, had hit such obscurity in her first adventure on the Game Boy Color, but that was later brought into popularity with Risky's Revenge, so it's only rightful for Kokopolo to receive just as much popularity as Shantae has before(just, you know, for better attention).

To anyone who reads this motivational post, I ask you this. Please, give Kokopolo much more well-deserved attention so that the chase-em-up series, and all the characters in these games, don't get left behind in the world that has been going through so much lately, take time to acknowledge the series and its characters, stories and lore, and inventive gameplay given to the handheld gaming industry. Make sites about the series, do countless documentations about Kokopolo by creating wikis, or even keep creating more tributes to Kokopolo, if you even consider doing so for the sake of many fans around that still love Kokopolo to this day.

And, in the chance any of you seek to garner interest in creating a new, real dedicated handheld that seeks to be the 3DS' TRUE, standalone successor(not Switch, NOR Switch Lite, 'cause they're not the 3DS' true successors to me, even Nintendo said so before, time and again, and aren't able to admit that, too, despite many people's self-proclaimed claims about that being the opposite in tantamount to their statements and trying to get Nintendo's people to give in to such people's claims, too, not that I feel or think that they are or something) that continues particular aspects the chase-'em-up series utilizes from both games, please do so to garner more interest in the series and flare up the handheld industry that needs to keep up the kind of momentum before the too many smartphones and mobile games attempted to make too much people ignore it altogether, such as the touchscreen itself widened to match the top screen's roomier ratio, and maybe even slightly taller vertical ratios for both screens, for instance, that should've been with the 3DS from the very beginning, and maybe try to have a new "Go! Go! Kokopolo" game made on it exclusively, be it as a launch title, or later release, for the people to enjoy.

What's more, there should be physical re-releases of Kokopolo's past games to preserve the series' entire existence. Try to make efforts to make it a reality.

Give Kokopolo more attention it truly deserves. Churn up the motivation to make more Kokopolo adventures for more people's enjoyment. Keith Webb has worked day after day to bring the series to reality, even with the hurdles he's had to overcome, and it would be a very big help to him if more people stepped up to show Keith Webb, and all the other people that have gotten involved in the games' development and contributions to the series

One more thing, as a great reminder to all, the series' 10th anniversary is coming up very fast, so let's all try to make this the best, most memorable, and biggest anniversary celebration Kokopolo really needs! Make the motivational push to make this happen with encouragement and excitement! Get people involved, and establish great inspiration for the series! Don't make this year another year of obscurity for Kokopolo! Don't ever give up on Keith. Don't ever give up on Kokopolo! And especially don't ever give up on the amazing chase-'em-up series, and the entirety of the handheld gaming industry! Keep spreading the word!

This post had to get out of my heart and mind. Hopefully you'll take the time to read and acknowledge it, and give you the inspiration to be motivated in keeping the momentum going and have it become stronger than ever before. Not doing so will only bring great regret and disappointment to all who worked very hard on the games, and the fans that have been supporting it since day one. Just saying as a point of fact.

Thanks to any and all who reads it and does their part. Keep Kokopolo going and going for a lot more longer, people!

There's a recently uploaded video on YouTube, straight from a channel called "How Long To Beat Podcast", and it has an amazing interview with the mind behind "Go! Go! Kokopolo", Keith Webb, and it tells what the origins of "Go! Go! Kokopolo" are, how the game came to be, a couple things to note here and there, and how far the 3rd installment on the Switch has gotten, in terms of development.

Interview is here to those who want to take a good listen - https://youtu.be/R1jNh8W-EuU (Timestamp is set to 01:02:44 to those who would skip to that segment and hear it)

Its very amazing to hear from him after so long, because I've gotten far too worried about the series' state as of late. He even acknowledged the series' 10th anniversary coming our way very soon, and is focusing on getting it on track by picking up activity on Kokopolo once again.

One point of note to bring up, Keith Webb's website, while still looking nice, really needs its galleries updated to include such artwork about Kokopolo and its games.

We should do it alongside him to really bring more attention to a lotta people more than ever, gain more popularity, and have this stand out as not only the best game series made, even on a real dedicated gaming handheld, but also the "Chase-Em-Up" genre the best new game genre created.

There's also Tanukii Studios' Twitter account Keith created to center on bringing news about Kokopolo and its games on a regular basis, along with the studio's other games, should there be any yet(which, as Keith said, hasn't been touched in such a long time, and currently has mostly nothing centered on Kokopolo. Minor shocker to some, yes. That account's activity should be picked up again.) - https://twitter.com/TanukiiStudios

Anyone who reads this should do their part in bringing more attention to Kokopolo. I can't wait to see more activity on the series, especially the 3rd installment. Wonder what all-new bosses in Kokopolo DX will be, and how many there are? Would it be 10 again, or above this time? Maybe? Who knows?

I really hope Keith will keep the activity going rather than leave it idle for more than years again. Anyone who has not yet purchased the Nintendo 3DS' models should get one and buy "Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D - Space Recipe for Disaster" on the eShop for a very reasonable $7.99 there. Those who do have whatever model but not have bought the game yet should do so straightaway, and support Keith Webb's games.

Really also hoping the first game will get a well-deserved re-release sometime soon, with some small changes to lessen the frustration, so those who have not played that game can get the chance to do it.
