huh. so the sequel but not the original?

well maybe SCEJ can also bring Over my Dead Body 2 without the first game after all.

THIS A MILLION TIMES THIS

 

[DrROBschiz]

Really enjoying the localization efforts going into the Vita lately

Guess now we know the secret of this teaser site then!

No! I guess it means that either: They are making a Remake of Conception 1

OR it's Conception III.


Please Atlus!

 

[RurouniZel]

Surprised it's not NISA.

I'll have to do some research and see if it's worth getting.

 

[Nibel]

Wait is that the huge teaser announcement?

 

[Andrefpvs]

LOL. But anyways, dat region-free PS Vita <3

 

[darkziosj]

D:


We are not in Japan.

Im pretty sure the 3ds has more jrpgs fans in japan too, based on the sales of the games and system.

 

[Takao]

I'm a huge fan of Atlus. Of persona, Etrian Odyssey and the devil summoner series.

Will I like this game?

I saw some video and it looks a bit different than I'm use to.

Atlus made the three games you mentioned. They did not make Conception.

There is a video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TO2MMCIEisw, you may wana mute the sound though.

 

[ShogunDarius]

this came out of nowhere

 

[Taruranto]

Never forget.

Spoiler

Never forgive.

Possibly? It isn't an Atlus game, Atlus will be the Western publisher. Honestly, the game is mostly about cheesecake and wish-fulfillment. There's not a lot of substance to it like Atlus' original games.

 

[fek]

Oh god, that's awesome. I was waiting for the price to go down before importing the vita version, but if it's going to be localized, I will wait for that.
It's so crazy how many unexpected localizations we are getting. Aquapazza, Umihara, Conception, Holy Sorcery Story, Danganronpa, Project X Zone, Demon Gaze, Senran Kagura Burst, Mugen Souls Z, even Nep Idol PP is quite surprising.
Edit: Almost forgot about Diva F. Also, Shiny Festa localization too was quite crazy in many different ways.

 

[Steel]

Why would they even... Then again, if they're willing to import this under sega's leadership maybe we have a chance of seeing valkyria chronicles 3 among other things?


Then again Sega made a similiar choice with hatsune miku.....

 

[Quixzlizx]

I'm always in for another dungeon crawler. I hope the Vita version also has a retail release, although digital-only won't be a dealbreaker.

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

Wut. I didn't expect Atlus to pick this game up. I guess I'll pick up the 3DS version just to see what it is like.

 

[Volcynika]

Babies, babies everywhere.

 

[Andrefpvs]

Never forget.

Spoiler

Never forgive.

I'll never let this go

 

[DarkLordMalik]

Is this game any good?

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

Never forget.

Spoiler

Never forgive.

Being fair, the first conception was a PSP title... I think...

 

[Maedhros]

Isn't Conception 1 for PSP or something like that?

^
Beaten.

 

[Ridley327]

If Atlus wouldn't even bring over P2:EP, their very own game, there's no way in hell they're taking on VC3. The PSP market is dead dead.

 

[Tizoc]

I'll uh consider getting it.
Can I be a cold sadist towards my waifu in this game?

 

[Saroyan]

Never forget.

Spoiler

Never forgive.

It still hurts

You've played Conception II then? So is the dungeon crawling and other elements of the gameplay uninteresting?

 

[Astarte]

There is a video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TO2MMCIEisw, you may wana mute the sound though.

Oh geez, commentary is not this guy's forte imo

 

[FluxWaveZ]

I'm looking forward to finally being able to try this out.

2014's looking good for localization, between Danganronpa, Conception II, Steins;Gate, Jojo's... Feels nice.

 

[djplaeskool]

Atlus and NISA keeping me double-dippin'

 

[Takao]

Siliconera's stating that this will be $39.99.

 

[wrowa]

Huh. Well, when it was announced I said that it's bizarre enough to warrant a buy if it ever comes out of Japan. So... I guess I need to hold my word now? Hopefully we'll also see a proper European release.

 

[Watashiwa]

You've played Conception II then? So is the dungeon crawling and other elements of the gameplay uninteresting?

Personally? No. But I was considering importing a while back, and a Japanese friend of mine warned me off using exactly those terms.

 

[koutoru]

Atlus USA lives!!!

But, wait a second. I remember Atlus making fun of Senran Kagura and now they're bringing Conception 2 over? Brilliant.

 

[koutoru]

EDIT: Double post, bad internet.

 

[PixyJunket]

Why even bring the 3DS version?

Audience is on Vita.

Source?

 

[CrackPebbles]

oh fuck that's cool!

 

[-Horizon-]

Siliconera's stating that this will be $39.99.

But will it be eshop only? Or will we get a physical release with some goodies?

Spoiler

I can't even imagine what they'll put in as a bonus

 

[cafemomo]

Source?

Certain games do better on PS platforms.

 

[Bel_Air_Jeff]

Is this game released in japan already?
Any Japanese impressions or reviews?

 

[Kater]

I won;t hold my breath for an EU release.

Yup.
I'm still waiting for SMT IV, Atlus. You hear me?!

 

[Nosgoroth]

Nice! Now it's 3D vs OLED qHD.

 

[Jamix012]

Why even bring the 3DS version?

Audience is on Vita.

In Japan, you're 100% right. In the west the Vita barely has an audience at all and a huge chunk of it bought the games as a result of many of the shooters on it or Assassin's creed, which doesn't have a large overlap with the Niche JRPG fanbase. I'd take avatar bets that this will sell more on the 3DS than Vita in the west.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Wait is that the huge teaser announcement?

No the countdown ends November 24th

 

[Jucksalbe]

Should I look forward to this game? It doesn't sound all that great.
I'm surprised they actually call this Conception II in the West. Might be kinda confusing.

I'd say it'd sell more based on install base, not your logic. I don't see the majority of Vita owners in the west being ones who bought it solely for shooters and AC

 

[entremet]

Huh?

Have you seen ATLUS 3DS support?

 

[-Horizon-]

Wikipedia tells me that the plot in 2 is not connected to the first game.

This makes me a little more excited.

 

[lordfroakie]

This announcement broke gaf?

 

[cafemomo]

I'd take avatar bets that this will sell more on the 3DS than Vita in the west.

Won't bet you since I already have another bet with another member regarding sales, but I have a gut feeling this will perform better on the Vita in the west. There are just certain multiplat games that will sell better on one system.

 

[kurahador]

Aww jeez...first that persona tease now this.

 

[Hero of Legend]

I want to know if it's retail or digital only on 3DS, as it's $40, that should say retail, as no digital-only release is $40, only up to $30 IIRC.

Plus WHY would Atlus do that when they've seen good-great success on 3DS in NA? All of their games are both retail and digital on 3DS at least. Overclocked was the exception until a month ago I think.
