Prison Princess Breaks Out Later This Month, Here's A Trailer

Gotta be the richest concept I've encountered in the genre yet - loading the game with hormone fuel only to mirthfully troll the audiences who come (er, no pun intended) mostly for said fuel. "Playing it for the plot and puzzles, eh? Well, whether and to what ending you'll beat the game shall be the judge of that!"😆

Yeeeeaaah, something tells me the developer might have a thing for the damsel in distress trope. inb4 the "bad" endings go all 50 Shades of Gray.

Nice I liked their previous game nekomiko so this is great

Uh-oh there's the word "titillating" in the trailer. NL has already red flagged this one in the 0-6/10 bracket for the future review.

Be amazed by an innovative review where the focus is on preaching about the negatives of fanservice and xxx, and how puritans should wash their filthy hands if they so much as look at the game.

I'll be waiting.

@Blizzia The gameplay doesn't shine on the video, but it would actually be really cool to have this kind of game reviewed by someone open-minded who knows how to enjoy the weirdest Japanese things unlike what you accurately described from NL.

@Rhaoulos Exactly. It's really not that hard to find such a person. It would be so nice to find someone who isn't literally going into the review having already judged the game to be bad simply because that person hates these kinds of games.

Unfortunately, it happens with nearly if not all of these types of games when it comes to NL. They simply cannot review them without spitting seething hatred at it. Sometimes it is subtle, sometimes it isn't.

It might be a good game. It might be a bad game. Can we get THAT bit of information WITHOUT 50 judgmental remarks and a cheesy "bet your mom will be proud of you if you buy this game" at the end? It just makes it unprofessional and childish.

We come here to know if the games are enjoyable and what they offer to people who might be interested in them. Not to know whether the reviewer likes titillating fanservice games or not. That part doesn't matter at all.

All the moaning from the PC brigade on these pages against those who hated censoring Tokyo Mirage sessions. This looks like the first pervy Switch game of 2020 . Where are they now ?

@Cromwell

We don't actually care about pervy games if they're bad.

@Spudtendo I don’t care even they’re good. The novelty wore off during the last generation.

An interesting concept of done right, offering the potential for fan service but it comes with a price. I’ll have to wait for reviews (from multiple sites).

Looks interesting, will definitively pick it up if it gets a physical release, if not depends on the file size.

Does this one come with Labo VR support? Asking for a friend...

@Cromwell Nobody wants to stop these kind of games. People were just sick of snowflakes boycotting excellent JRPGs because of a few changes. Would I have preferred the original version of TMS? Of course. Is it a big deal? No. We had the same problem with Xenoblade X. Was the PC brigade the ones starting problems? No, it was the people who wanted what for me was most eagerly awaited game of the Wii U generation to fail because it didnt have a boob slider and they changed an age of a supporting character. Of all the myriad amazing stuff going on in that game why freak out about a minor change? "Its in Japan!!" so are vending machines for schoolgirl panties and a declining birth rate.

So everyone who says calm down they're just making it less creepy for the average person is suddenly some imagined enemy in a fictional cultural war invented by demagogues for clickbait.

@YorkshireNed Do you remember Xenoblade chronicles 2, and people complained about how a character looked from an angel you had to hack your game to see or something similar, instead of focusing on the other amazing stuff in the game? Or how some people are totally ok with complaining about hot female characters, AND saying they want more hot dudes? They may say they don't want to stop fanservice, some probally mean it too, but it sure looks like they want to stop fanservice.

@tobibra That's a good point, I had forgotten that. I mean, all that stuff worked for ME but I did jokingly call it "Xenoblade 2: Busty Swords". If I was into guys it woulda been a bit dull so, yeah, a fair point for maybe having the ability to change the blades into hunks in trunks or whatever could have broadened the appeal. I dont remember anyone saying "Ban this filth" [though I am going off my memory and I ain't got time to check] just people saying what they saw and how it wasn't for them. You cant deny that was one big n bouncy game. A classic and if anyone had tried to ban it or called to boycott it I would've fought them but saying what they saw? That's fair enough.

@YorkshireNed First off, sorry for rambling I'm not always good at expressing myself. I am not denying anything I tried to point out that people who like ecchi stuff are not the only ones complaing. . I was mainly saying that people complaining about fanservice, + people who antagonize people who like fanservice, and act happy about removal of fanservice = someone who may not be responsibel for removal of said content, or an direct enemy, but their attitude are neither imagined or friendly either.

If it's not a Bad-End H-game, I see little point.

@tobibra Usually I agree with the anti-censorship side, but they became just as cringy when it came to TMS.

God bless Japan.

No point reading a review for this as we already know what the main topic of the review will be...

NL need a die hard anime gamer to review these kind of games but until then I'd rather watch 30 minutes of youtube Walkthroughs to make up mind to buy these kinds of games or not

@playstation_king But then how will I know if the game is a misogynist?

@Enigminator misogynist means despises women doesn't it? From what I can see this game is solely about two women, no men at all, I don't see why this game would be misogynist

@playstation_king ...I was joking.

You'll discover things alright....

@YorkshireNed Erm...I hope you aren't suggesting I give a toss ? Well the answer is no. I have already said the novelty wore off for me along time ago.
I'd prefer it if studios made a game without any controversial content which would result in ZERO arguments from gamers

@YorkshireNed I It's all BORRRING to me now. The games, the winging and the EVERYTHING

@Cromwell That's the worst part of all these changes. Had they not occurred, none of these tiring controversies would've even happened. It's the same crap as the Disney movies nowadays that have the whole "racists and incels vs good fans and critics" narrative all leading up to another mediocre Marvel flick or remake.

Only for those of ROYAL taste!

I'll wait for a Physical release first.

I remember there was a time when Nintendo does not even allows words such as "death", "kill", or "murder" in the title of the games that to be publish on a Nintendo platform, characters in the Mortal Kombat spills green blood. How the time has changed.

@Blizzia That's not what Nintendo Life does. Whenever they slam such a game, it's fully justified due to being titles that have terrible and/or boring gameplay and story save only for the sexual content. Games that are full of fan service but are actually good games like the first Senran Kagura game on 3DS do get good reviews. If this is actually a competent point-and-click game with fan service on top of it, NL's review will fully support it as such.

@BRAINFOX I don't understand your argument in the first place, but the Disney remakes and Marvel flicks (as well as their animated films) have been mostly excellent, so there's not much to complain about anyway (save for the minor issue with the historically inaccurate biracial couple in the "Lady and the Tramp" remake).

The game looks interesting

@Blizzia What's a "gmae"?

@BulbasaurusRex The hearts on my comments suggest otherwise. Also, the game you referenced was before NL went on a downward spiral. It's also done by Morgan Sleeper, one of their all-time best reviewers. Idk if you've noticed, but he's done zero reviews for NL since June 2018. Pretty sure he doesn't work there anymore, or has taken a backseat.

@kurtasbestos gmae -> g m a e -> g a m e -> game. Typos happen milord.

@Blizzia You also have several down votes, as well.

Anyway, even if you think there's been such a downward spiral, it doesn't change the fact that all the sexy games they've slammed have legitimately sucked. When a game tries to use excessive fan service to try (and fail) to make up for very shallow experiences, NL is completely right to complain about how the fan service is being used.

@BulbasaurusRex Weird, none of them actually sucked.
Obviously different people has different tastes, but it would not hurt to have ecchi games reviewed by people who atleast pretend to like or not have any proplems with the fanservice.

None of them have flaws like Batman the telltale game. Unless it got patches after I played it, the save function does not work in chapter 3. And you lose every choice you made if you die.

Or like a glitch I experienced in the Crash racing game, I think they patched it as the game works fine now, but on launch, at the first boss I got errors and were kicked out of a race when I won -.-

Not once have I encountered stuff that bad in ecchi games. And I own almoste every ecchi game released retail on Switch, and some digital only.

@BulbasaurusRex Except they levelled complaints at the fanservice instead of the game mechanics.

When a review says "man it sucks having boobs shoved in your face every 3 seconds, and by the way, the gameplay sucked because it was shallow" you're left thinking... But why is it shallow? What makes it shallow? The review says "the game leaves you wanting to play a game with proper controls because they're janky" - why are they janky?

Most of these reviews spend so much time complaining about a genre staple (FANSERVICE) instead of telling people WHAT is wrong.

The fanservice isn't wrong, it's RIGHT. It's the STAPLE of those games.

If they could toss away those nonsensical remarks and focus on reviewing THE GAME, that'd be great.

Also, all of the games did not, in fact, suck.

Two especially bad reviews would be the Peach Ball one, and the Gal Gun 2 one. Yikes.

One literally gets 4 with a "If you find anime ladies with animal features highly appealing, you can probably add a couple of points to the score below" - when is that ever a point of contention for a score? Hello?

The other one fails to mention any of the several modes, endings and so on (I dug up Ralizah's old comment on it):

"I'll just repost my PS comment:

"Bah.

Probably my most anticipated game of 2018. Double Peace was a blast, and I expect Gal Gun 2 to be the same. I'm excited for the longer campaign, more open structure, multiple endings, score chasing, etc."

Also, why no mention of the multiple endings, different modes, etc.? It's almost like you guys played as little of this as possible to complete your review. "
