Why -1 for type-0? What's their complaint?

SE didn't pay them enough.

Might have to import Shining Blade if the soundtrack holds up, I love me some Kikuta...

Sega stopped localizing Shining games just as Tony Taka started working on them. Is there anything they can't screw up?

Our first look at Code of Princess comes, as usual, from Famitsu.com. The site has posted a handful of images coinciding with the debut article that appeared in this week's issue of Weekly Famitsu.





As detailed earlier in the day, Code of Princess is a side scrolling 3DS action game where you jump between parallel lines of play ala Guardian Heroes. You can select from multiple characters and play with or against multiple players.

We got Shining Tears, but every review outlet and their mother shit on the game for no good reason. It was essentially Shining Soul III with voice acting and some technical issues such as slowdown. It was actually a decent game.

Other than that, it's amazing to me how a lot of this revival of the Shining series was fueled a lot in part by the series' non-Japanese fan base, yet it is the not Japanese fan base that is currently being shat on in terms of localizations of the games.

Oh the ironing, Sega.

Indeed, very sad we'll probably not get Shining Blade since it's apparently going to use a system similar to Sakura Wars and Valkyria Chronicles.

I was also very sad we didn't get Shining Hearts, it looked pretty good! I'll import it someday...

Yep, Code of Princess looks like Gunstar Heroes alright.

AND I WANT IT!!!

Gunstar Heroes or Guardian Heroes?

 

[JustAnotherOtaku]

If I were in a Sealed Room is without doubt a day one for me. Gotta make the most of having a Japanese 3DS!

Gunstar Heroes or Guardian Heroes?

Yeah, it's definitely Guardian Heroes, not Gunstar Heroes.

Those Code of Princess screens make it look like a cheap knock off of GH, kinda disappointed... Maybe it's better in motion...

More Dragon Quest X screenshots. It looks great. Vast areas like Xenoblade's (sans the dense grass but oh well, there are still less or more trees, bushes and other stuff that spice it up depending on the area). And thankfully most of these shots have some kind of architecture off in the distance or closer, be it a fancy wall, a single building or a whole city, rather than just a plain field as in previous media. You can also see the visible on the field enemies in some of them. The lighting seems off though.

Is there going to be a Senritsu No Stratus OT? I'm curious if anyone else is picking it up besides me.

3DS is looking more and more like the ultimate perv console.

 

[IchigoSharingan]

hey guys, is Japan big on browser games? Like the kind on osg1? I never seen any news of the sort. I just know Famitsu covers a bunch of stuff, mostly console and handheld, but never see any browser games. I don't know if there are any coverage sites/mags for browser stuff, as far as I can remember.

also can't believe that new 3DS game name... yeesh

Oh yeah, that definitely looks like Gunstar Heroes from this angle.

 

[Takao]

Code of Princess looks really cheap.

No idea but I'd love to hear impressions. Won't be a day one for me, but I really want to get it soon.

Just read the Type-0 9 review and it seems that there's no complaint.

 

[Defuser]

I thought panties would boost Type-0 to 40/40
