Weapon Shop de Omasse[a] is a comedy rhythm JRPG written by Yoshiyuki Hirai, in which the main characters are a father and son pair who craft weapons for heroes in a fantasy weapon shop resembling the set of a sitcom. The player uses rhythmic gameplay to forge weapons which are rented by heroes for their quests; the weapon chosen will affect whether or not the hero is successful.[1]

The game was released as part of the Guild01 compilation on May 31, 2012 in Japan for the Nintendo 3DS, and individually on the Japanese Nintendo eShop on November 21, 2012. Although it was initially not planned for Western release, it was released on the eShop on February 20, 2014 in North America. Critical reception on the game was heavily divided; while its story was praised, its blacksmithing gameplay was not as well received by some reviewers, who called it tedious, while others found it a unique twist on the JRPG.
