Frozen PS4 coming out in Japan

I thought it was a PS4 coming out of a fridge.

I think the fact that it's still playing in theaters in Japan (It came out in MARCH in Japan) may also be a reason it's so huge over there. Also, cute characters. Japan has held on to Stitch for far, far, far, far, far longer than the United States of America did.

Also, I want to point out this thing. It's not official.. but.. bwa ha ha ha.. it's great. Oh, the doujinshii that Frozen will inspire at Comiket.

The onslaught of Frozen still has a few more months for Japan.. hang in there.

And admit it, some of you are secretly waiting for Elsa and Anna dakimakura.

God help me I might not make it. My tolerance level has already arrived at critical mass.
 
Man, I really liked Frozen but that really isn't the best use of colour now is it.

No white? Or ice white/blue? Strangely though I can see it being a sell out..which I will later regret ahaha!
 
shows how much I am out of the movie scene. When I read the thread title I thought it was going to be an Ice Blue Edition PS4.
 
I've got to be the only person in the world who hasn't seen this movie, everyone keeps telling me it's the best Disney movie ever > Alladin, Lionking etc etc.

Maybe it's because I've seen it 30 times, but it's way overrated. Too many people wrongly believe it's ushering into some new Disney golden age. Also, its reputation for conveying a feminist/LGBT theme is overplayed and a stretch to say the least.

The movie has some good songs, but the cookie-cutter characters and simplistic plot is more reminiscent of Dreamworks than classic Disney.
 
So help me I will boycott KH3. First KH game I don't buy. This crazy country has turned me into a raging ball of anger and hate when it comes to that movie.

I hear ya man. It'll be over soon as it's simply a case of a decent movie getting lucky. It had one good song, no relevant competiton and was probably the first Disney musical movie a lot of little girls saw in a theater. It basically got lucky as shit yet garners comparisons to films that outclass it in every way (Lion King, Aladdin, etc). It was fun my niece loved it but....this isn't the second coming of the Disney renaissance.
 
Is Frozen better than Tangled, How To Train Your Dragon, or Ice Age? Those are probably my 3 favorite animated films since moving to CG.

I think it is at least as good as Tangled. I only liked parts of HTTYD, and I'm not a fan of Ice Age, so I think Frozen is much stronger than those, but it's in the same ballpark.
 
Can't say I know or care enough about the film to be annoyed, but not using a white PS4 is completely baffling. I'm starting to sense that all limited edition PS4s this generation are to be half-arsed letdowns with no thought put in to the design or colours, going by how bad they've been up until now (and how bad the LE PS3 super slims were).
 
No, imo. I still prefer Tangled over Frozen.

if you like Tangled you should dig Frozen too.

I really, really liked Frozen. But I like Tangled and Dragon more. Ice Age...pahaha, no.

Ok I will probably get the 3D Blue-Ray combo pack whenever it comes out in the US. Yeah Tangled was a beautiful film, and the music was superb! How to Train your Dragon was thrilling and had amazing 3D. As for Ice Age, well I just really enjoy the humor in that series. Another one I really liked was Finding Nemo. I still prefer Studio Ghibli hand drawn animation over the CG though.
 
Frozen is one of Japan's most successful movies at the box office.


Japanese box office, All-time Top 3:

1) Spirited Away - $300.1 million

2) Titanic - $258.6 million

3) Frozen - $240.8 million


Seriously...the Japanese absolutely adore that movie. Not surprised in the slightest that it's getting a Frozen SKU.
 
Sony's trying to capture that 4-13 year old girl demographic? This seems like a ridiculous mismatch of product and promotion...

As said, Frozen is incredibly popular in Japan.

It's number 3? Huh, I thought it had already beat Titanic.

Wow, Spirited Away is number 1 in Japan? Awesome.

And I agree that this PS4 is one of the ugliest consoles I've ever seen.
 
I thought the movie was called "Anna and the Snow Queen" in Japan. Why does the PS4 have the Frozen logo?

That's a very good question, whenever I forget and accidentally call it Frozen, everyone looks at me puzzled until I say Anna to Yuki no Oujyo which then causes them to light up and tell me how much they liked the movie. Seems like a pretty big oversight to use the english logo.
 
I wonder if Disney will force Square Enix to have a Frozen world in Kingdom Hearts III.

square is probably pissed off that they have to include any disney worlds in their dumb anime games as is, but i'd be surprised if this doesn't make the cut.


also echo the sentiments that this doesn't look too great, black on gold only works on power rangers.

That seems like an odd statement, wasn't it SE who went to Disney and asked to use their characters for a game and not the other way around?

A world featuring characters from Frozen would be pretty cool, and I'm sure people here would eat it up.
