Cyber Sleuth sold like half as many copies as the last World game in Japan and World has been a steady seller in the West since its original release in 2000.

My point is if the next Cyber Sleuth doesn't come to the west it won't be because World sold poorly, it's because Cyber Sleuth sold poorly.

e: I was thinking of the PSP game, not the newest World on Vita released this year. No release data on Cyber Sleuth in the West but quotes like "20th best selling digital game" aren't uplifting.

The Playstation 4 version was the 20th best selling title in north america and 19th in Europe and for a series that had long since lost a ton of steam and is behind a lot of potential games those could be, that's not even a little bit bad, also the Vita version was legit one of the best selling games for that handheld in NA and Europe, like that game didn't even do a little bit poorly over here.

My argument is that nobody should be sweating over Next Order as some kind of test for Cyber Sleuth, because not only is it attached to a name that has a longer history but it was received just as well and in a more hostile market with Sony basically abandoning the platform in 2016. There was also the campaign to bring over Re:Digitize that Bamco directly addressed last year.

It'll do fine.

I'm looking at AmiAmi's listing for the Bikini Party edition and in the screenshots included I see they added subtitles, well, everywhere.

http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=GAME-0017036

The in-stage dialogue, for example, is not subbed in my copy so I'm guessing they're using the same build used for the western version. If nothing else, this confirms we won't have scenes without subs.


Interestingly, Uppers was fully subbed from the get go.

One of the things keeping me from enjoying the Persona franchise is the music, actually. Meguro can write some really good riffs, but the lack of diversity in his composition style puts me off to him.


Not to say he isn't a good composer, but I'd be happy if he at least used some new midi tones to make his music at least a little less predictable.

there's a ton of diversity in his stuff, though. Persona 3 has j-rap, trance, rock, and piano pieces. Persona 4 has j-pop, j-rock and jazz. The Raidou series is mostly jazz. Digital Devil Saga has a ton of rock and techno. He uses a lot of different genres and instruments.

Ok that was just for a mobile game. But Atelier and Nights of Azure 2 are listed for 14:15 Japan time. They're just doing Nioh gameplay until Kojima finishes up.

Just took a break from some work and played a couple levels of EDF 2017 on my PStv... man I wish they had a reload button in that like they do 4.1 on the PS4. These are those games that if you didn't hear anyone else talk about them, you'd see them online or at the store and think "that looks cheap and stupid". Yet it is amazing and you curse yourself for skipping over it when you eventually do hear about it after it's cult following blows up.

EV? Not really. Is a 15 bucks game at most.

Versus is more worthy the 23 bucks but you can get it on Steam without any of the performance issues present on the Vita version, so yeah.

Well not several, just the final mission. :v:

Is a serviceable brawler but it suffers of a bloated roster that in turn, makes a lot of the missions feel very repetitive.

shinovi versus is not worth 23 bucks, on steam or no, tbh

the pc version lets you turn off the cutscenes that interrupt the flow of combat but it's still kind of mind-numbing to play

Isn't EV way better than SV from a technical/mechanical perspective alone? I don't really regard PLOT for a brawler.

I know you really hate the Vita ones but come on.
