Can you try opening the PSP up and attacking the problem head on with compressed air? Will that potentially cause more problems?

 

[nickcv]

when i first saw the thread i read:
Gabriel Knight History

my heart skipped a beat

 

[Octorockin']

Heck yeah, this looks and sounds awesome.

Muramasa and Odin Sphere are loads of fun, but I'm totally up for a turn-based Vanillaware game. The customization is the most exciting aspect so far, in my opinion.

 

[kiryogi]

Shame that Kamitani isn't involved, but the signature style is still there. Now its if debate do I import this day one or wait for a localization that might not even come. . .

 

[cj_iwakura]

I just hope Aksys, Atlus, or XSeed get this. Keep Ignition and/or Marvelous far, far away.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Why isn't Kamitani involved? Hype plummeting.

Yikes, I didn't even know Marvelous localized games.

I feel like a bad person... I still havent played Muramasa...

Dude it's only $12 new on Amazon

Spoiler

I haven't played it either

 

[Square Triangle]

So for those who import regularly, what is THE site to pre-order?

sadly, Amazon doesnt ship games to my country, but they're still available here though. I just dont know when I'll be getting a new game for my consoles.

 

[Amir0x]

oh it looks amazing

thank you for keeping the 2D dream alive, Vanillaware!

 

[Ezalc]

Good lord that looks gorgeous, not that I had any doubt but DAMN!

 

[Mdk7]

Bring it to PAL Land, please!!!

Oh and now i've got a reason for keeping my PSP.

 

[Augemitbutter]

thanks to vanillaware, snk, arc system works etc.

pretty art in my favorite genres? gaming doesn't get better than this. now don't disappoint with the gameplay.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Amiami.jp or amazon.co.jp through a forwarding service like tenso.

If you want the preorder bonus, that is.

 

[matmanx1]

Man that's gorgeous! Then again, gorgeous is completely expected of Vanillaware! Color me shocked it's a PSP title but no complaints here as I love my PSP. It will be pretty sad if we never see the game localized into English although the game is pretty enough that it's probably worth the import just for the visuals and sound.

I wonder when pre-orders will start? =)

 

[Mejilan]

Oh. Oh my.

Ive actually dealt with the thing so bad that i ended up getting a new faceplate, and now the screws turned to shit since ive opened it so many times. Cant even open it atm. Im gonna try and open it, then buy some new screws (hopefully i'll find the ones that fit), then a can of compressed air or just try with a new cloth. Ive done it before with enough patience, but its a bitch.

We'll see. Nothing unrepairable here, just gotta be careful.

 

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

I don't see George Kamitani's name. Is another team at VannilaWare working on this?

Also, this looks like a SRPG or team-based Odin Sphere. But I love VannillaWare games so I hope this gets localized.

 

[RurouniZel]

Turn based?

YES PLEASE!!!!

 

[Mr. Spinnington]

localization plx

 

[Zeal]

these guys just can't fuck up. possibly one of my favorite developers of all time. supporting this talent all the way back to the days of Princess Crown, still one of my favorite games.

ALL TIME.

saving this reaction for the day Chrono Break is announced.

 

[GWX]

localization plx

I lol'd

 

[dragonlife]

Incredibly beautiful. I will be purchasing day one when it's localized.

 

[Lissar]

So beautiful! I'm glad they're around to feed the part of my brain that subsists solely on lovely 2D games, or else it would be starved.

 

[Femmeworth]

Some gameplay details: The player is the captain of a squad of knights. You basically create the knights which form your squad. You can customize the appearance, gender, voice, weapons, and various details of each knight. You use town hubs are places to organize and prepare your forces, then you march forth into the world map to travel and quest, encountering enemies along the way. Battles are turn based and not action based, unlike previous Vanillaware games.

This is totally giving me a Final Fantasy Tactics vibe.

 

[Jonnyram]

Looks awesome. Kind of glad that the PSP is now a serious consideration for developers making JRPGs. Some awesome stuff coming out this year.

 

[Silh]

You had me at Vanillaware.

That was even better than I expected.

 

[maomaoIYP]

You had me at Vanillaware.

Same here buddy.


And then I died a little when I saw 'PSP' and not PS3. =(

 

[Giolon]

Want. Need. MUST HAVE!

Too bad the PSP Market is fucking dead in the US. We have about as much chance of getting this as Valkyria Chronicles 3...

SAAAAAAAADmaking.

That music is lovely <3

 

[Hours Left]

Looks amazing.

 

[cosmicblizzard]

Goddamit, my PSP backlog keeps growing while I still can't figure out why Remotejoy isn't working. Fuck

 

[cj_iwakura]

I hope you all realize just how integral Kamitani was to Vanillaware. I'm nervous.


He personally oversaw GrimGrimoire's localization, that's why it was so amazing.

Nervous about what? He owns Vanillaware, the company has like a dozen people in it at best. He didn't leave the company, nor is it likely that he had nothing to do at all with this game. He's just not directing it, which is curious because it means he has to be working on something else.

That's all I need to know.

 

[Urban Scholar]

This is the sexiest RPG I've seen.

 

[duckroll]

That's all I need to know.

If Kamitani left the small company he founded, you don't think that there would be a thread about it?

 

[∀ Narayan]

I really need to buy a PSP.

 

[Ratrat]

posted yet?

from amazon.

and famitsu. bgm is up too.

 

[Alrus]

God I love Vanillaware so much, their game are always incredibly gorgeous (if a bit lacking in term of gameplay but usually the gorgeous art makes me forget that). I really hope this is localized and comes to europe.

I wonder what their possible other project is... Wasn't it said they were working on a 3ds game? (Also a bit OT, but wasn't a HD port of muramasa announced a while ago? What happened to it?)

 

[Ratrat]

The bgm is pretty great. The site itself has some amazing art too.

 

[FoxSpirit]

PSN please... I need this for the NGP start >.<
