OK, I have this game. It's a fun game. I am not much of a vocaloid fan but it's fun to play. I saw the news here and thought I would write about it.
Considering this blog is centered around Japanese games not being localised and brought to the west, I thought this would be a good place to start.
YAY! Finally! A Japanese vita game is being localised and released here! According to that article, you lucky Americans are getting both a Playstation 3 release as well as it being released on the Playstation store, whereas Europeans just get it on the PS store. Either way, it is fantastic news.
It seems from this trailer video SEGA America posted, they've went with roomaji. This makes the Japanese nerd in me very happy. I was thinking that they would just translate it into English, but it seems they have went with the lazy better option and translitered it into roomaji. Nice one SEGA.
I was about to go into how and why this might have happened, when reading the article, something caught my eye, "'Your voices helped make this happen', said Aaron Webber,". Again, as I say, I don't follow anything about this game, so I am judging from that a lot of people expressed to SEGA that they wanted it to be released in the West.
Interesting.
Any way, great news on the Japanese game front, hope all you vocaloid fans out there are pleased!
As I already have the Japanese version, I don't see myself getting this. If I do, it will be purely out of interest to see what they have done with it. Rhythm games are huge in Japan, but not so much over here. I think I will watch this closely, and see how it develops...
How many of you already own the original? If you already own the original, do you plan on buying this version as well? Let me know in the comments!
I went here to pick up Mario Power Tennis for Game cube: a game that I looked everywhere to obtain. Free iTunes Cards
