These terms were rather well described in the manga KoeDeOshigoto. The heroine was even forced to play through one of each game type. As far as I understood it, Nakige are supposed to have a degree of brightness and hope that makes you truly care when things go downhill, so that at the end you\'re torn between love of the characters and their efforts and sadness at how it turned out, but ultimately glad to have watched it. Utsuge on the other hand have little if any happiness; they\'re meant to drown you in despair and hopelessness and make sure you leave feeling depressed. A part of me wants to see some mark on the examples distinguishing whether each one is a Nakige or an Utsuge. After all, what you get out of them is totally different, as different as OldYeller and TheHumanCentipede.

In other words, a Nakige is meant to be a TearJerker, plain and simple, making you cry because you care. Utsuge on the other hand have little if any happiness; they\\\'re meant to drown you in despair and hopelessness and make sure you leave feeling depressed. Whereas Nakige aim for simple TearJerker territory, the Utsuge is all about ShootTheShaggyDog. A part of me wants to see some mark on the examples distinguishing whether each one is a Nakige or an Utsuge. After all, what you get out of them is totally different, as different as OldYeller and TheHumanCentipede.
