I didn't know this was coming out
so this has all the episodes or is just the first part?

>>8109315
It's the remake with all the episodes as chapters in one game.

It's Xseed so I'm going to feel bad if I don't buy it.

I think you might be able to emulate it. Even though the only working emulator is a hunk of junk it should still be able to let you play the game without many issues. I hope they'll release the Book of Shadows too. That one has amazing production values~

It doesn't looks like a heavy game, it might work just fine on JPCSP.

>emulating a 50 dollar handheld you can firmware flash to run everything in 5 minutes.

the level of cheapness on this board often astounds me.

who am i quoting?

>>8109432
I tried looking on eBay, but it seems to be impossible to get one to the Netherlands for under $100. If you know a place where I can get one for $50, please link me there.

Gamemania often has used consoles for cheap. also the new 99 euro model without wifi can be flashed as well.

>>8109441
Cheapest second-hand there is 69 euros, which is about $94.87. That's excluding shipping.

>>8109443
you seriously convert euros to dollars on a European site?

69 is still half than what a new PSP-3k costs. but if you want a cheaper one go and visit your local gamemania.

>>8109463
Post >>8109432 suggested the PSP was 50 dollars. I was merely pointing out that at the obvious places it's twice as expensive as that.

> I hope they'll release the Book of Shadows too. That one has amazing production values
What do you mean by "amazing production values"?

Problem with Book of Shadows: It's more or less only a fan disc with parallel/alternative events of what is already known.

Only the last (extra) chapter somewhat continues the story. But then that's nothing more than a prologue.

Hold the fuck up a minute, this is getting localized?

It was already pretty amazing that we got Fate Extra, what's going on?

Publishers are becoming increasingly interested in VNs. First we had Phoenix Wright, then we had some other almost-VNs, then we got our first full VN by a big publisher with '999: Nine Hours, Nine Doors, Nine Persons', which was a huge success (completely sold out really quickly). So now more is coming, such as Corpse Party and Hakuouki.

>>8109703
Or not. Capcom won't bring over the newest entry in the AA series.

Don't forget old VN like Monkey Island.

>>8109703

999 was a sucess?
On the USA?

>>8109723
Go die in a ditch.

>>8109713
Capcom does some strange things lately, (Monster Hunter on Wii and 3DS, no PS Vita version announced)

>>8109741

Ever since they pulled the plug on Legends 3, I was pretty much done with that shit company.

Now, they're just pandering to the West like the rest of the big Japanese game companies.

>>8109771
>Legends 3
You just HAD to remind me of that, huh?

Is there like a list of /jp/-related PSP games somewhere. I recently got one in order to play Fate/Extra and now I'm looking around for anything else interesting.

Do you guys know if Agarest Senki 2 is coming to the USA or Europe?

>>8109771
>Now, they're just pandering to the West like the rest of the big Japanese game companies.

In what world?

>>8109844
1 and zero came out in the US and Europe so I guess it will come out too. Maybe on the PSN network?

>999 received critical acclaim, with several near perfect scores emphasizing its well written story, remarkable presentation, and addictive gameplay. Some of the notable review scores are 10/10 from Destructoid, 9/10 from Nintendo Power, IGN and GamesRadar, and 4.5/5 from Cheat Code Central.[8] The game received a score of 82 on Metacritic, based on 26 critics.
>Following the game's release, it sold out from many US retailers both traditional and online, including Amazon.com[9] and GameStop, resulting in high prices on the secondary market. Aksys has since announced a second printing.[10]
It sold significantly more copies in the US than in Japan.
(Most US people also didn't realize it was a huge Ever17 ripoff and gave Ever17 lower ratings after playing them after 999 because they've seen the twists before. Such is the price of more releases...)

if any of the PSP emulators can hardly emulate surround sound, then I. guess buying PSP is a better option.

>>8109703

Phoenix Wright is an adventure game. So is Corpse Party.

I wish people knew what "Visual Novel" meant.

>>8109306
with all the japanese games in the PSP i thought most of /jp/ would have one already

>>8110766

an actual psp, with two front mounted speakers, won't be able to put out anything better.

>>8110766

JPCSP is absolutely horrible in regards to sound. Forget about surround sound, half of the games won't even play background music at all.

>>8111432
Did you know that in Japan, they call visual novels 'adventure games'?

>A visual novel (ビジュアルノベル, bijuaru noberu?) is an interactive fiction game featuring mostly static graphics, usually with anime-style art, or occasionally live-action stills or video footage.[1] As the name might suggest, they resemble mixed-media novels or tableau vivant stage plays.
>
>In Japanese terminology, a distinction is often made between visual novels proper (abbreviated NVL), which are predominantly narrative and have very little interactive elements, and adventure games (abbreviated AVG or ADV), which typically incorporate problem-solving and other gameplay elements. This distinction is normally lost in the West, where both NVLs and ADVs are commonly referred to as "visual novels" by Western fans.

Corpse Party fits this description; Phoenix Wright is arguable.

6 days left.

Is Myst a visual novel?

>>8111459

Have you installed SonicStage?
JPCSP emulates sound through it.

Can't wait to buy this for reals.

>>8112146

Yes. It was one of the first fancy visual novels.
