Hakuouki PSP confirmed for localization

[TenshiEffect]

There's a new man of the month:
Issue #4: Swords Illustrated, featuring Hijikata Toshizo

Also, the contents of the Limited Edition has been announced.
It will contain the Game's Soundtrack and a 72-page Artbook.

...I'm shallow enough to buy that just for the art book.

Edit: kind of off-topic, but it dawns on me Lux-Pain may have made me far more paranoid about localizations than I normally would be. 8|

Preordered it a week ago. Let me hope Germany won't bitch around because of custom duty stuff....

And yay, limited edition extras sound nice~

[Riviera]

Oh yeah, I preordered the LE a couple weeks ago. Cannot wait!

I hate it when people concentrate on only newer systems. I don't have a PSP. I really wish they'd release some otome and similar games for older systems first (something that should've been done a long time ago anyway) and then release the newer stuff as new systems come out / release newer titles later. Or release some "old" / "older" games along with releasing newer games if they're finally going to release some of these kind of games in the US.

Last time I checked Yo-jin-bo is still being available for purchase and download at jlist/jbox (not hanakogames...I still don't have it yet but I plan on getting that game sometime)
It's sad that the company went bankrupt due to piracy if it's true (sorry but I find that hard to believe...but then again I haven't read up yet on the company that made the game)

Do you think that if this does well for the PSP they'll release the DS one too? I really hope so.

(now lets hope it goes well so more similar games can be released )

Just played this XD
the stories are pretty good and depending on who you "aim" for, it changes slightly. Story Flow is done so well, its hard to see where it does branch depending on your choices.

and the fact that the guys are super hot >_>
of course it matters XD
its the reason i forked out money for the limited edition

I know what you mean - I'm practically on a HUGE island in the middle of no-where too
Australia is called the land down under T^T
but postage to here isnt that bad. (sending out is another issue )
MARCH huh? dang - thats a long wait

Just finished all routes. (I moved to a really rural place where internet connection is almost non-existent, so I managed to finish all of them in just half a week. God, it makes me look like I have no life. D:)


My favorite path is that of Hijikata's, and, yep, he's also my favorite guy now.
I was an emotional train wreck when I was on his path. My tears just kept on flowing, god damn it.
I also liked Heisuke's path, but he's not really my favorite. I just liked how his whole route turned out.

And also,

Am I the only girl who wanted Sanan-san to have a route? /shot

On a side note, there are a few things that bothered me. I noticed a few errors/typos, but I'm no native English speaker so who am I to complain. And besides, I only noticed a few so I guess it's no big deal.

[Blue Lemma]

Saw this at the store and picked it up. Support the VNs, yo

But man, this thing has otome written all over it! Not what I usually play, but I'm still giving it a shot. So far it's all right, but it'll be hard to get past all the flowers and flower references!

Eh? There weren't that many flower references. Well... except for the cheery blossom thingy scenes, but there were only two or three of those.
