You know, PC isn't only a desktop PC. It can also be a laptop or even a tablet.
With an attached controller, my 7inch Windows 8 tablet isn't much bigger than Vita and plays Steam games.

Napishtim was *slightly* better when played digitally, but Konami never put it on PSN.
And it still wasn't worth playing through to see whatever that version's exclusive content was.
The PSP version of Oath is excellent, all things considered.
The PSP version of Ark definitely isn't.
I don't think Legend of Legacy even has voice acting, and I'd still rather do business with a company who doesn't support transphobic language over one who does, given the opportunity.

the PS2 ver. of Ys 6 is also worthwhile. love the extra content.
I have no idea what you are talking about, but I'd much rather do business with a company providing the options I want.
Actually, more accurately, I'd much rather buy games which have the options I want than ones which don't, the company releasing them doesn't factor into it.

yea, Atlus should work on that multi language support. i still love them for Growlanser IV though.
I think it's a reference to Akiba's Trip using the word trap. A few people made a fuss about it.
I don't think it's likely (I'm expecting just the PC version), but I'd definitely like it if XSEED found a way to get the rights to the PSP version of Ark of Napishtim so they can release both.
Despite the overblown complaints from some drama queens, the load times on the digital version of that weren't that bad, and it was a fun game to play portably. Plus I already have some version of Ys 1, 2, 3, 4, and 7 on my Vita (and am anticipating either 5 or 8 next), so it'd be nice from a completionist perspective to have 6 as well.
I'll still get the PC version, though.

I'm not sure how XSEED run things, but from various things I've read in the past I know NISA tend to only approach publishers about localizing games after they've been released, even if they're long-standing relationship (i.e. previously Gust/Compile Heart).
If XSEED are anything similar, we're looking at games either interally or already released in Japan, presumably as there could be some issues to do with the rights/actual release date otherwise. So the first 5 games minus Sen are probably unlikely for that reason alone.
I'd probably count out PoPoLoCrois and Luminous Arc for the time being, too, because they're both TBA in Japan as it is.
Kinda rules out the Ukiyo games too, as much as I'd like to see them (just checked the art for them - nothing I could find that matched).
Sadly, don't have any better suggestions for you at the moment!

I feel like I've been though most of the Falcom games that look viable for release or rerelease now.
I do find it odd that none of them seem to match up with Blood Drive or Xanadu Next.

What, you're telling me you dont like hearing japanese honorifics in dubbed games? And english in games set in japan?
well at least they dont release pervy games and release games on time! *
*Conception 2 and EU doesnt exist.
I really hope XSEED eventually get their hands on that port. I loved Celceta on my Vita but it was painfully obvious how much the visuals would benefit from being on PC. The resolution bump alone makes for a night and day difference.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Wasn't it ported by the same company that did Ys VII for PC? And as I recall, that was kind of a shoddy port. It'd be cool if the PC version was good, but I'm reluctant to believe that.
Yeah, it seems like that's a very real possibility. But honestly, I'd rather get a shit port than no port at all.

No luck with that.
I feel like another PSP game is probably pretty unlikely unless it's something very light on text.
I wonder if the image on the left is a teaser for something. Someone else pointed out that 2, 4, 6 and 8 are all part of that image, and the bottom left and right corners look like they could be part of something.
And what's the thing in the centre of the 0?
I'm not sure, they're similar, but I don't know if they're quite identical. It could be though, I might see if I can get them to overlap.
I've played around with the two images a bit and I'm not really sure. It's not exact, but that could just be down to image quality.
yep and the first and last letter matched, same thing with brandishpsp website, so i think thats pretty much confirmed.
I think I have found out the second silhouette.
It's a character from Corpse Party: Blood Drive. I could be wrong though, but his legs look similar.
Not it. Tried to overlap it, doesn't fit.

Too many games to image match. We need to narrow things down a bit.
I can sort of see a connection between Tom's hints and the game titles. For example, from Kinki no Magna, you get the word kinky and I suppose you could call Tom's hint kinky. Fourth hint has the guy saying cheese which rhymes with Ys.
Might be something, might be nothing, but what could you get from the hints and vice versa? A list of Japanese titles would be real handy right about now.

I'm still not convinced that the hidden images are one game. Could just be things they're not even ready for us to find out about yet. Who even freaking knows though.

I think I might have the third one.

From Onechanbara Z: Kagura with NoNoNo!
I'm not 100%, but it seems similar.
And a list of unlocalised games I found: http://forum.marvelous-usa.com/index.php?showtopic=27516 It's a bit outdated though.

I know I'm reaching, but still. >.> Too many games to work with here.
It totally is Onechabara! Good Work!
Which part of it? Trying to find it.
It's mainly the space between her right arm and her body.

Right arm, holding the sword. You can just see the end of the hilt in the corner of the silhouette.

The shape is right, but the scale looks like it might be a bit off.
*Googles Onechanbara Z*
Oh for fuck sake.
Let's hope the legs one is really is Sen.
Technoweirdo

I see it now. Her right as in left of the image. >.> Edit: Yeah, post above makes it clearer.
I can definitely see it, but they changed the picture to make it look that way if it's really that.
CrimsonFist
Member
It's so close, but it's not exact.
Yeah, guys, I'm just not seeing it.
the point of the question mark is on a triangle, the same triangle you can see between the sword and the pelvis, while the rest of the question mark in on the space between the arm and the torso.
It's exact, you just need to resize it.

Oh, that makes it look like a perfect match. I guess I messed up the scale on my comparison a bit.
