@IceClimbers So, from what I've gathered, they've replaced the still art from the original VN with actual animation from the TV series, and are hiring the company that produced the anime to create animations for routes that weren't even in the TV show? That's awesome! I already own S;G, but I'll absolutely repurchase this version for the Nintendo Switch.

@Spoony_Tech hmmm, that... augh. That really hit me. I feel all weird now, in a good way.

What a nice sentiment.

Need help asap. Monster Hunter World limited edition PS4 live in Japan. Need to find somebody on the site who lives in Japan who could order it for me for a $50 profit. But I can't think of anybody offhand and certainly not that I know and trust. You know everyone rjejr. Who can I ask?

Stick this sort of filth in the PS4 thread where it belongs

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

That's neat tribute, but also a bit weird at the same time...

@MegaTen If it wasn't meant to be discovered, they wouldn't have included the Joy-Con controls and updated the game. It's like Totakeke's Song. It's meant to be discovered, but it's just very well hidden.

@JaxonH Funny, I read gcunit's reply to you first, and I had no idea what's going on. Then I read your comment, and I still have no idea what's going on, looks like you were asking me for help, I think you have our relationship backwards, aren't you head of the amiibo hunters? Seriously though, you know I'd help if I could. Doesn't PlayAsia or whoever handle all of this stuff?

I'm guessing you mean this one. But knowing you you've already placed an order with them and are just looking for a back-up.

See they're looking at porting FFXV to Unreal Engine 4 on Switch...

Honestly I'd rather see them put all that effort into FFX/X-2, FFXII, FFXIII trilogy and World of FF. But I'll take FFXV also.

@rjejr
Well, it hasn't gone live on PlayAsia yet. And usually their markup is insane (MHXX Switch console was initially $550, finally lowered it to $500 but even that is crazy.

It was live on Sony JP store but it wouldn't accept my CC because the billing address had to be in Japan. I have a JP address to forward to, but the billing address hung me up. Was looking for someone who lived in Japan to order it for me and ship it out. It's gone now though.

It's so beautiful though, don't you think?

@JaxonH It's strange though, since Tabanta has said that he's working on a Luminous game right now. http://onlysp.com/final-fantasy-xv-developers-new-ip/

If they are doing anything with it, it's a project for far later down the pipeline is my guess. I'd personally rather see a game made from the ground-up for Switch, but that's just my thought. Far less chance of it being janky or having trouble around when going from engine to engine that way.

This week's Japanese sales from Media Create.

Switch 44,052
PS4 19,322
New3DS LL 10,650
New2DS LL 8,761
PS4 Pro 5,338
Vita 3,847
2DS 1,726
New3DS 428
PS3 99
Wii U 86
Xbox One 57

Kind of disappointing sales for Metroid: Samus Returns, it sold just under 31,000 copies.

@JaxonH Don't think I'd use the word beautiful, I kind of reserve that for mermaids, but it would make an awesome 8'x8' wall covering. I like the controller better than the console. The box sells it.

Kind of glad I don't have a friend in Japan, I can only imagine the amount of money Id' spend on Godzilla merchandise alone. I've been a fan of a lot of things in my life - Hulk, Wolverine, NY Mets, Cowboys, pro wrestling, Sephiroth, James Bond, Planet of the Apes, but Godzilla has been the 1 constant throughout.

@JaxonH I was with you with FFX, though, honestly, I don't think of X as that great a game compared to the previous ones....it was the beginning of the downward spiral and loss of identity. But XIII? For eel? The best part about XIII was when it it opened into basically Xenoblade but worse. I haven't opened XV yet, and maybe I'll hold off for a Switch version, but it can NOT not be better than the dismal disgrace of the previous game.

WoFF OTOH I'm 100% there. Best FF game since IX.

@NEStalgia
FFXIII were good games. Not perfect, but I never understood the uproar. Just like Metroid Other M. I see them on similar terms. It was only the diehard fanbase making the game out to be total and utter garbage when most normal fans enjoyed the games quite a bit. Maybe not the best in the series but still great games.

I just bought the XIII trilogy on PC (already owned on 360).

@MegaTen @SLIGEACH_EIRE Thats pretty good for a Western made game thats in a franchise that was never big in Japan.

But by my estimations combining UK and JP sales...its probably sold 50k at most.

I should have added that Champion Jockey Special released on Switch last week as well. If Metroid: Samus Returns sales are disappointing then CJS's sales are abysmal. Barely squeezed into the top 20 with sales of 2,626.

@JaxonH Different tastes and all that, but personally, I'm not the "hardcore fanbase" for FF. I like the series, I have my favorites, but I haven't played all of them, nor most of the spinoffs, and never played any of them "in their own time." Actually XIII was the only one I DID play in its own time with a launch day collectors edition. The whole experience was just terrible. The environment itself and world building could have been cool, but it was a bare bones clumsily told story where it always felt like the player was given no idea what was supposedly going on, even if it could have been cool. And it got lost in its own technobabble to the point that the player had no idea what was what without kind of flowcharting it in their heads. The characters were cardboard cutouts and stereotypes, and it had no sense of exploration or towns which has been the core staple of what makes an RPG both past and present from Ys to Skyrim. FF was always generally a road trip game. XIII was a long glass hallway through which you could see the road you were not part of. And then at the end decided to try to become a Xeno game.
