I guess it's mobile. Not setting myself up this time....
Whoa! I'm pretty excited, whatever this turns out to be. Definitely not a traditional VP project though.
- It's almost certainly a mobile or service based title given the wording
- The scenario writer is an established playwright and stage director, so Gotanda and Norimoto don't seem to be involved
- No mention of tri-Ace anywhere
- "The Origin" makes me wonder if it is a sort of reimagination of VP1...

VP1&2 for PS4

Time to welcome disappointment.
Roughly it means "delivered" or "broadcasted", as opposed to "going for sale". It's a term used for mobile games, apps or services.

You think it could be one of those situations like how the PSP SO2 made its way to the PS3 / PS4 digitally only?
Then again if so wouldnt imagine them going through all this trouble / credits etc...

But if it meant we could have any version available digitally, would you be against the PS version of VP1?
OT, looking forward to whatever this is.
nope not at all, I would be extremely happy for any version. I just think how silly it is that the PSP version was never put up on the store with the rest of the PSP games

When I opened the thread:
The thing is that this will be a catch-22 for the series: if it does well, the series will continue on mobile. If it fails, SE will think the series is dead and won't put anymore money into it.
I wish I wish I wish. But I'm afraid of being delusional

Ill take a mobile game if it means I can get a console game later on.
I don't mind mobile games but the problem is they are all gatcha shit. I really hope Japan outlaws it since it is such a cancerous mechanic.Lol, same old garbage from the same old losers.

Might as well just stop playing Japanese games if you're allergic to the present and future of gaming in the Far East.

"Losers" is a little hard. Sorry for preferring controllers rather than touch controls and being somewhat traditional
A lot of classic franchises in Japan tend to do better on mobile because the people who played them in the SNES, PS1, and PS2 era now play primarily (or often only) on mobile.
Like we just had a Digimon game come out and do gangbusters there while the dedicated device games can barely crawl past 100,000 copies.
This is actually something you're likely to see more of going forward, though these games are also showing increasing depth and production values since they're targeting former dedicated device players.

I kinda feel that all the "jeez, just adopt new trends !!" justification is the laziest thing honestly.
It's not a new trend, though.

Replace with "trends" if you prefer. I don't think I affect my point. That's just me though.
Digimon Linkz is F2P and isn't an RPG though, so I don't think direct comparisons are fair. Do we know if Adventures of Mana and Romancing SaGa 2 sold well on smartphones?

just give me
-possibility to connect the phone to the tv
-controller support
-gameplay not limited by the touchscreen
-no f2p microtransaction garbage
not happening, uh?
┐( ¯ 3 ¯ )┌
Pretty much what would make me happy.
Regardless of what it ends up being, I'm happy to see the logo and franchise again
I think duckroll's point is that screaming about something in every thread for five years doesn't actually accomplish anything.
We can look at some similar examples pretty easily. Every major retail game has a season pass, yet people comes in to type in all caps about how it's the end of the world and berate an OP if they express excitement. Does anyone feel that's helpful?
Handheld games also increasingly get dumped upon fur being on handhelds due to the dying nature of that market. Would you look forward to a future where you enter Ace Attorney threads and 90% of the posts are about how they could possibly release on a shit ass platform like 3DS?

No one is asking you to adopt anything. If you're not interested, you don't have to play it. Lots of other people are enjoying it and it makes tons of money, so it just makes the people who cry about it look foolish.
I don't think this is the case anymore. Mobile games can do gangbusters in Japan, why make a console version?
(Honest question, though. Digimon and Fate are still coming to traditional consoles even though the latter had success in mobile).

I still want another DS SRPG. As the valk profile srpg was pretty good and srpgs work well on touch devices.
Then why shit up a thread about something you don't like that's been going on for a long time?
I'll take more vp however I can get it.
I guess it's hard to move on
You're right though. I'd have preferred a console or PC title with controller support but I guess it's better than nothing
Get Yoshinari bros and I'm in anywhere, if it is a mobile game you want nice art
UGH. NO STOP! Don't give them ideas. That might be some gacha I can't resist.

It is probably used to hype the next VP console game.

Let's be honest though Duckroll, when people see mobile, they expect Free to play, low tier effort, heavy recycling. Outside of ports, SE didn't really made sth big enough yet on mobile.
