That bad timing. I wanted to import this as well but looks like I'll wait. Wonder if Xseed will pick it up.

Awful timing, especially after all the delays. Still interested in it though, will probably go with this ahead of P4D.

They remade the entire thing, apparently.

Oh come on, delay it again, it's not like it matters at this point.
Likewise.

Have had this game pre-ordered since May of last year, when it was supposed to come out.
Incredible bad timing.

Nice to finally have a date. Have my preorder at CDJapan. I'll be holding off on Dancing all Night for the American release.

Finally! Last I checked (literally yesterday) they'd pushed it to summer but had no release date. But against Persona? I have no context for whether IA/VT's gonna get dead or not.
Amazing that all my hype for this comes from literally one song I heard in the trailer, too.

Welp, that's two vita games I'll be getting that day then.
Been waiting on this for a while.
Admittedly, SEE THE LIGHTS is a freaking great track.

I didn't want them to be competing ;_;
At least the game is actually releasing!

I'm gonna be real sad if there's nothing else in the game that good.
The game got pushed back several times from its initial date due to quality issues. So I guess they remade the game because the original version was awful in some way. Oddly, not that dissimilar from what we've heard about P4: Dancing All Night, though I don't think anyone's said Atlus threw out a whole game from Dingo to start fresh.

Vita rhythm games armageddon sounds good though.

The gameplay they were showing off last year was genuinely problematic: http://youtube.com/watch?v=kfMjoFxUsH0
If they recognized that a stage like this would put everyone to sleep, that can only be a good sign. That said, I'm still worried about the monumental task they have of making 60 playable stages on completely unproven mechanics.

IA is popular, but I doubt sales of the game would by anywhere close to the Diva F series.
DAN would easily beat it if it can just capture 50% of P4G buyer base.

Glad that it finally has a date. I'm also really excited for a rereveal to see how much they improved it. I'll definitely be getting this on release and wait for a P4AN localization.
Imo the track list is really solid (and huge at ca. 60 tracks). Here's something to listen to:

You can link the scan if Famitsu has it on their own website, no?
Man what the hell is going on with Dingo?
Been interested in this for a while, and while I have P4D physical preordered, may get this digital (eventually) too.
The last trailer looked really good, I hope they haven't changed it too much.
Are you sure? I've never heard of this, I thought it was developed internally.

I thought you could read Japanese.
This is by Dingo? Any source for that?
There's nothing on Dingo's website.

It's published by Marvelous - that makes it very likely to be released in west.
Is that a common abbreviation?

That's a very common misconception.

Vocaloid music is not my cup of tea but Miku's biggest offense is the convoluted as fuck gameplay. You can make rhythm games challenging without them being a mess, like the Theatrhythm series. Any chance IA/VT is better in that regard?

It's not going to happen:
In order to distinguish it from the other brands they are only going to make it more complicated (there's some kind of mechanic involving color). The worst part is that I'm not entirely sure this will actually make it more fun, based on what we've seen.

Yeah, that's seriously awful timing. I don't think they could've chosen a worse release date.

I think IA/VT have a chance thanks to vocaloid and Kagepro fandom.
