Akio Ōtsuka, Kenjirō Tsuda, Miku Itō Star as Energy Drinks in CalorieMate Game – Interest

In the realm of video games, there are several games based solely on product placement, such as Pepsiman from 1999 or the Burger King games from 2006. Regardless of their quality, they’re a fascinating part of video game history. Adding to that history is a game featuring the Japanese energy bar and drink brand CalorieMate.

The CalorieMate X (formerly Twitter) account announced the game’s release on September 12. The account posted an image with the text “CalorieMate Games 9.12” and the caption (roughly translated), “Releasing a game you’ve created is one of the most nerve-wracking moments for any game creator…”
