D3 Publisher (Bullet Girls, Dream Club) have announced a new idol Vita game! Wait, don't run! It's Idol Death Game TV!

This sounds kind of cool to be honest but I don't know anything the developer has made so maybe it'll just be creepy and/or terrible

We need new death games to take the place of zero escape + danganronpa

Yeah based on psprices it seems that the Atelier Vita games go on sale maybe once a year. That plus the fact that they are digital-only (so no hope of finding a physical copy on clearance/used) has me tempted to get Ayesha from this sale as my entry point into the series instead of waiting for Rorona to go on sale someday. I'd prefer to play in series order but at least Ayesha is the first in its trilogy.

They have experience with adventure games, but all those games never came to the West, so who knows.

The japanese version of Sophie had a sale last month, ~7 months after its release. So expect a sale around february, I guess?

Shopto (UK retailer) list Valkyrie Drive for Vita, published by PQube
Link has been taken down, but if you go to the Vita page on Shopto's website, they have Valkyrie Drive listed under "top pre-orders"

At this point I am willing to make a THIRD account just to be able to get the game in english with all the DLC

I just checked and yup it's there, link goes nowhere though. Top pre-order is MeiQ, the game that got refused certification in Australia for underage looking boobies :v:

Last Window, Michgan: Report From Hell, Ape Academy 2.

That being said, like 0 chance of XSEED not handling a US release if any localisation happens at all.

Worth noting that ShopTo listed Senran Kagura Estival Versus as published by pQube, so it's probably Marvelous Europe with pQube handling post-release distribution.

Absolute worst case scenario, pQube themselves will release a US version.

Cool. I did archer, dancer, and fencer.

Was there something I'm missing with the character creation? Does your whole party have to be the same look/gender? Switching anything seemed to change the whole team.

Kill demons, make babies. Seimei must die. Oooh, pretty colors.

I say this as someone who has finished the game twice on the longest time setting. The story is not great but it is a fun game to play.

More of the trophies should have been panty-based, tho.

Uppers actually got a decent review in Famitsu (33/40), which doesn't mean a hell of a lot, but Takaki probably doesn't have the cash to bribe Famitsu like the big publishers so it might mean something :v:

There's probably not as much fighting as we're being lead to believe. It's probably all panty slots and skirt lifting, with the fighting being mostly a punishment for failing.

Going by the demo most of those actions are your best options to deal with the enemies but yeah, it sounds like an incredibly boring trophy.

Play-Asia translated the bit about the panty slots and they serve as the game's power ups. With certain combinations giving you invincibility, attack boosts, regenerating health and the like.

But who gives a gently caress about Uppers? Pqube pretty much confirmed the Valkyrie Drive leak!!
