I don't believe I ever saw SV get that low. And looking at Amazon, it's now $90+ for a new copy. You can most likely wait but I wouldn't expect it to pull an Onechanbara.

I just figured with it being the same niche situation and the same publisher that it would pull the same thing.

Which is rather unfortunate because from the Z series onwards Oneechanbara was super fun.

I really shouldn't be spending money on games that I don't even own their respective console for.
But I went ahead and preordered the PS4 version.

Apologies, it's the used that's $20 actually. New is still $30.

If you all are sure this'll hold it's price or even go up in it... I may have to grab it. It'd be my first SK game tho so I'm worried about dropping $60 on it.

Hey, I'm not trying to start nothing but...
Why would they line up for the worst senran? If that were legs CHAN, aka the Kit Kat, aka squeezy squeezy, aka da Blondie, aka NOT ASHAMED!, aka katsuragi...
Then that pic would be accurate. But like I said, not trying to start nothing.

There's room enough in my heart for both of them. Come to think of it, there's room for everyone. Except Hibari and Minori.
I feel you. I just didn't want you to go in with that expectation and potentially miss out.

Are people expecting this to sell worse/as bad as Onechanbara because LOL. SK is popular, game is great.
Gameplay wise it's the best by far IMO, but you might want to play Shinovi Versus first to get the backstory on the girls. You can basically ignore SK1 since the recap in SV is all you need and Shinovi Versus introduces you to more characters (and does more backstory anyway).
TBH you could probably just read up on the characters on the SK wiki and play EV first though. Biggest problem is that going backwards in the series is hard because each new game is a huge leap. SK->SK2 and SV->EV are major jumps.
PS4 version looks legit glorious. Don't you dare get Vita unless it's your only choice

Great thanks! I'll give shinovi versus a shot.

Any reason in particular? This isn't exactly the type of game you'd play on the tube and at home you could still remote play the PS4 version from your Vita.
Because I have my PS4 for PS4 exclusives, I don't care much for the platform or playing games on my TV.

I thought it was something else.
This. It looks and performs so much better on ps4. Also more enemies displayed on screen, more players online, and 5 shinobi in diorama mode.

Basically the dressing room, but with more posing and 5 characters at a time
Man, I can't wait to do dumb bullshit with this.
That's some hyperbole. Vita version runs just like SV (with some drops here and there, surprise, just like SV). But the game is way prettier than SV.
Of course, the PS4 looks better, but saying that EV Vita looks like shit is simply not true.

Murakumo was my favorite, but I used Asuka after finishing the story modes to grind out the final trophies.
Ya, if you go into Yin, the battles are over faster than the loading screens, even on Hard. Hoping for more of a challenge from Estival.

Nah, I'll just spend the money on Estival.
There's a lot to buy in March: The Division, DoAX3, Estival Versus...

So I just watched the latest trailer.
I've know the games are developed by Tamsoft for a while but I never really paid that much attention to them. But that song was STRAIGHT out of Battle Arena Toshinden, to the point I wondered if it was actually lifted from one of those games.
And it gave me huge nostalgia chills which is lovely.
Suppose it's not such a huge stretch to think of it as a spiritual successor either, given some of the stuff from Toshinden:
(Would love to see her as a guest character one day, would be so fitting)
Heh. I should really get around to importing Shinovi Versus before it gets too difficult to find.

No need to act so smug. One person asked a question. There's no harm in that.

It has to be said (if it hasn't already)
The composer(s?) for the Senran Kagura series is awesome. So much good music.

I was planning to buy the vita version but it seems it runs poorly... Too bad, I loved playing SV on vita. But it's the kind of game I don't mind playing on a big screen (unlike VN for example).

Just imagine what they'll do in the sequel.
Thank you for that. I sure had no clue SK was more successful than Onechanbara in America. If I had I probably wouldn't have asked if it'd price drop like Onechanbara did.
Not true. If you are OK with SV on vita, you'll be fine with EV.
