Was this reviewed? How did it do?
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
When it comes to popular series announcement in Famitsu, it's most likely a port of a game from what I've noticed.
Like for example: RE:R for PS3/360/WiiU/PC and RE:Chronicles for PS3 were announced in Famitsu. Dragon Quest IV/V/VI for NDS and VII for 3DS was announced in Famitsu. Final Fantasy III 3D and Final Fantasy IV + TAY for PSP were announced in Famitsu, and so on.
Reviewed last week. 9/8/8/8 [33/40].
Pretty sure, yeah. Posted the Game Index from this week's issue here. That appears to be it.
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
I see a Precure music game in there!
It's not quite the Musou I expected but I'll take it.

One of the three games announced is a port (I think) of this

The 3DS game by Giants seems to be Farming Simulator 3D, which originated from Germany IIRC.
No clue what the other 3DS game is, it's from Hamster seemingly.
...Farming Simulator in Japan, I can't believe it's happening :lol

HUGE SCOOP
of cow manure
Yeah... how about a new HM MAQL? And where's RF5?
The last HM for 3DS and Rune Factory 4 came out less than a year ago, no need to hurry that much. XD

Yep:

It was created by Jaleco. I guess they quietly shut down since their website wasn't updated since 2011.
Maybe Hamster can do a complete overhaul of Kizuna? XD
Edit: DAMN IT! Same time too! XD

I'm starting to think that Hamster now at least owns Jaleco's IPs.
Look at their VC page of Jaleco's Connection:
http://www.hamster.co.jp/products/soft.cgi?3ds&130116
(Edit: Same for the original Ninja NES game: http://www.hamster.co.jp/products/soft.cgi?3ds&121031)
It just has Hamster in the copyright.
Seemingly the JP Wikipedia page (can't find an actual source), and trying to understand Google Translate, but also it says this in the English Wii VC page (sources, please folks?!?), that Jaleco gave them the rights to release their games on the VC.
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/ジャレコ
Thing is, this is much deeper than that if Hamster's reviving one of their IPs, what will ultimately be telling is the copyright of this new game.
So what I theorize is, Jaleco MIGHT still exist, but perhaps have decided to finally step aside from at least the consumer industry, since their owner Game Yarou is an online/browser/something game company, and I think Jaleco focused on that and maybe mobile stuff for the past few years.
So maybe their like "fine, we give, we'll just give up our catalog to someone who can make some use of it", hence Hamster comes into play and this game is their first revival.
All speculation, but that's what I'm seeing this as. It is weird at least that Jaleco's been quiet since 2011, only other possibility is that Hamster bought Jaleco off of Game Yarou, we just didn't know of it (the Game Yarou purchase was public, Gamasutra reported it).
What do you guys think is up?

they need to make a serious precure game, musou or storm/raging blast like, i don't care, BUT PLEASE MAKE IT!
We should make a internation petition, i'm not joking, sometimes it helps a lot (see dark souls pc porting)
Regulus Tera
Romanes Eunt Domus
Sadly, I doubt Toei cares a lot about what the fans on this side of the pond think. Plus, a Musou game is not the type experience that sells to the intended Pretty Cure audience.
P.S. Come to the Anime thread already.
