FM posted:Another fun fact - Tokimeki Memorial 2 had a system by which the characters would be able to call you by your name, in some example of pre-Vocaloid technology gone horribly wrong... Having all the games in the Girl's Side version of this series on DS and having played one of the later Playstation games I can say that it's pretty drat hilarious to get the guys saying ridiculous poo poo as your nickname.

Mr. Trampoline posted:My only experience with this game is the Game Center CX episode, and I have to say... How did Arino manage to get the Shiori ending with all the two-timing he did? Y'know that episode was very vague about his progress, didn't elaborate much, and to this day I still don't think Arino pulled it off. I think they set it up.

And I'm halfway willing to play the Girl's Side games, but largely unwilling to buy them for the purposes of LPing. Good news, I have all the Girls Side games and am willing to mail them to you if you are willing to mail them back when you are done with them. I see you do not have PMs, but you can email me at soiendure at gmail to arrange it up if you want.

The three I have are for the Nintendo 3ds. Some versions have been released on the Playstation, I do not have those. The 3ds games have a few unique anime cutscenes that aren't in the Playstation releases. As for how to take 3DS screenshots, Maple Leaf might be able to provide an in depth guide since s/he did the Kid Icarus: Uprising LP so well.

Gotta Wear Shades posted:Tokimemo series is hard to translate because [stuff]. Additionally one of the reasons people love Tokimemo 1 so drat much is because it's so perfectly Konami. It wasn't enough to chase girls and get your happily ever after with your waifu. Konami added a whole BUNCH of additional awesome stuff to the game that you have to find and ALSO translate. I've heard there's a fan theory that we STILL haven't found everything. All that awesome extra stuff actually pushed the disk to its limits, pretty much almost filling all of it. Hence why a translation patch is so difficult because of the issues mentioned above.

Bah, you were too greedy! The game has you default call Miho Shirayuki-san, right? So you should have started calling this Miho Shirayuki-chan since it's something both Miho and B-Ho would let you call them but not the default name. This would have given you a bit of a spoiler for when the main character said Chan or San. Then it would just be a matter of determining which one was Chan.

I believe we are the same age, my friend. We are both such old people. I know the eventual plan was to slowly meander over to Metal Wolf Chaos, which I own, and would love to see. I think a lot of us want to see everything because these games are just so amazing and since the bulk of us are not fluent enough in Japanese to ever play them and will never see a translation this might be our only way. Ultimately, this LP didn't go gold for nothing VS. Your LP style is great so I can only chime in that I trust you to go with your gut and do what's right by you. (Believe in your own justice!) After all, you could always come back to these games to show off everything at a future time.

He calls her Kasumi-Sensei while they are at school and the less informal name outside school. I think this is sufficient. It's probably close to the equivalent to being all polite and professional with your friends at work then calling them losers and shitheads at the bar that weekend.

/\/\/\ Hey now, Hatoful technically has stats. Pah! Lemme see what I can dig up with actual numbers and stats the style of Tokimemo. (I like those too, but they seem pretty rare to find translated.) Hakuoki has no stats. I shall begin my search now, I'll try to see what I can cautiously recommend via videos and such as I do not like to put my stamp of approval on crap. Logfile: * Suggested Princess Debut, but Princess Debut does not appear to have stat gaining/raising sim aspects and/or takes forever to get to them so my search continues. * Considered suggesting Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure but it appears to be primarily an RPG. * Summer Session fits the criteria but its art is bad and the writing I saw in the one video I dredged up wasn't particularly endearing. * Loads of searching Tokimemo games on Amazon and following around what other people purchased with them leads me only to games that are also solely in Japanese. * OH JESUS CHRIST WHAT HAS ALL THIS SEARCHING DONE TO MY AMAZON RECOMMENDATIONS. * At this point I give up. Things I can confidently recommend: Obviously there is the Persona Series which totally has stats and levels ups and love interests. Jenner fucked around with this message at 02:24 on Apr 15, 2014 |

Not to hype but my spouse just finished the Hikari route and I got a lil' misty-eyed at it. Also, the Kotoko route is pretty sweet and sour. This game is amazing, I know you're gonna keep going but thank you so much for sharing all this with us, Sheep.

Nemo Somen posted:This seem a bit too dark for Tokimeki Memorial. My guess is that she actually plays the quiet type who enjoys being with animals, at least according to the more common tropes I've seen in anime. Kaori is a hard run, but I think it's her reveal of why she is the way she is that made people emphasize with her. She's so popular she got her own manga story because Fans didn't want the sad ending that happens when you ignore her to be so but also knew Tokimemo 2's OTP was Protag-Kun + Hikari. Her main theme is trust, and that's all I'm gonna say without spoiling things. But as an aside, I think I she'd be very much a Japanese vs American fandom split. I suspect she'd be offputting for Americans as it takes her a really long time to warm up to you and Americans are impatient.

Vil posted:And why do all of them have eye color that match their hair color? The one with glasses doesn't even have to wear glasses because she's wearing pink-tinted contacts! This is actually one of my biggest animation pet-peeves. I hate when a character's hair is the same color as their eyes as it displays a laziness in animation/coloring and to me became a signal of a bad product. Even now when they do it and the characters are decent it still seems lazy to me. I'm not exactly sure how justified I am in this belief as I do not know how much budget/time one saves by insuring their Korean animators do not have to change pencil color/paint color in animation program from hair to eyes.

(It really only loses points to me because one of the dateable characters is especially inappropriate for a high school girl and the "childhood friend"/Canon pursuit character is unlikeable and has no personality.) The second Girl Side is pretty drat good! It still has some creepiness but the boys are far more interesting. the third in the series is really something . So yeah GS > TokiMemo3

Opposing Farce posted:If nothing else, at least I'm kind of liking Serika so far. We haven't seen anything particularly endearing or interesting from her but I'm a sucker for aloofness. I have a thing for girls in suits so she's growing on me. Confused Llama posted:I'm beginning to wonder whether Tokimemo 3 was a deliberate attempt to troll the section of the audience who actually used dating sims as an attempt to train themselves for real-life interactions, purely for the malicious enjoyment of the thought of them a) taking this game as final proof that they would never understand the cruel vagaries of the female half of the species or b) actually wearing business suits to amusement parks and decorating their rooms with petrified tree stumps in the mistaken belief that doing so would make them suave-rear end motherfuckers. I missed this last stream but I want to repeat what I said in the first one. I'd love if they were that self-aware. Ideal meta-commentary would have them bring back this stalker/creeping mechanic you have to do here (learning/cataloging everything about girls) but then have your male classmates and friends begin coming up to you or calling you to ask for your details on the girls. Cue the realization that you're the creepy game mechanic guy this time. (I would put the M. Night Shyamalan smilie here but I can't find it/can't remember the code for it.)
