Amazon finally updated its listings and now Bhikkhuni is also scheduled for October 11th

The game also finally showed up on Amazon Mexico and I'm sorely tempted to cancel my preorder on Amazon US to save some money but Amazon Mexico had issues fulfilling EV's orders back in march and it might be the same with Bhikkhuni.

Decisions, decisions.

XSEED fully intends to port to PC every game they localize from now on and find increasingly risky retail releases

http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2016-09-09-no-fan-left-behind

quote:

"We were probably one of the first publishers focusing on Japanese games to start publishing regularly on Steam, but now pretty much every single Japanese publisher is onboard, and it's fantastic for gamers because they are no longer limited by the console or country they're living in to be able to play the game they want," Berry said.

Bandai Namco, NIS America, Spike Chunsoft, Aksys Games, Idea Factory, and other companies specializing in JRPGs and other traditionally console-bound offerings have been bringing more and more niche content to Western audiences on Steam. Berry said that most of the titles XSEED winds up publishing are being developed now with a PC release in mind, even if they aren't (yet) planned for simultaneous launches with their console counterparts.

"It's hugely risky, and much less profitable than digital, which makes it very difficult to do physical - especially on older formats where the cost of goods to us can be really high, and the retail sales price is pretty low," Holmwood acknowledged. "That said, it seems that our fans, in particular, really do want physical copies - they're often into really into collecting the games and merchandise as well as playing the game - it's a key part of the hobby for them. So we've tried to do it prudently by keeping quantities low - shipping out just as many as we know will sell to our fanbase, then maybe placing more orders once they've sold through. It's a different approach from the high profile 'sell everything in one weekend' strategy you see with the huge titles, and we don't benefit from the high profile that a huge launch can get you. The great thing for us, though, is that we often keep selling titles much longer than a traditional publisher would - we're still placing orders for new stock of titles we launched several years ago."

"Today's gamers are well-educated and know of the issues that small publishers like us face with getting shelf space when retailers want to only focus on AAA titles that have advertising budgets in the tens of millions of dollars, so they do a great job pre-ordering the titles they want to ensure that we build enough for them."

Also, most IFI games have several hundred thousand sales. Granted mostly due to exceedingly generous sales prices.

But Little King's Story was a pretty crappy PC port sadly.

If by 'steadily going down' you mean 'dropping like a stone.' first game has ~300k owners, most recent has, uh, 3k.

Bought a pstv on a whim to use as a living room emulation box and I was surprised how easy it was to set up the hack and how well it runs all the legacy systems I've tried. Since the hack was so recent I expected it to be more of a pain and for the emulators to run like poo poo. But nope, the only ones with any quality issues seem to be the oldest Sega systems. Neat.

That sounded like a fun little project so I grabbed a PSTV for $20 CAD off our local Craigslist equivalent.

they kinda just plomped it on there. i'm pretty sure the steam page was only up for like a day before the official release and people only knew it was releasing right then and there, and they were doing it the day after senran kagura: shinovi versus' port was getting released, which actually had any kind of marketing.

I really dislike how everyone seems to think Xseed made any comment about retail console releases in that article. They didn't: Marvelous Europe made the retail comments.

I had an odd dream last night where Video Games retired as a mod and Policenaut took over. Take that how you will.

Also, Amnesia seems alright though I haven't been locked in a cage just yet.

Is the ps4 version of DQ builders out in Japan. Has anyone done a performance comparison? I'm kind of leaning towards getting it on Vita unless the PS4 version is substantially better.

Also what's the price going to be on Vita? I was kind of surprised it looks to be $60 on PS4.

They both launched at the same time, pretty sure the difference is AA and 60fps and maybe more DoF.
