I'm interested in Net High (Kamina!), Tokyo Xanadu, Ukiyo No Roushi, Luminous Arc Infinity, Summon Night 6, The Hero Must Die, Ray Gigant and Stranger of the Village of the Sword.
I don't know how many of those XSEED can work with. There is already Grand Kingdom and Exist Archive as well. Too many games!

Never mind... :/
Another person who wants the Ukiyo games too?! Sweet.
That's two guaranteed sales XSEED, don't keep us waiting.
I knew i was forgetting some games! Also Zodiac.
Can't wait for the next game we won't be able to comment here!
In a more serious note, I would love Tokyo Xanadu, but for god's sake don't bring it anywhere near of Persona 5. Xanadu Next (officially) would be fantastic too.
Have little hope for Net High, the game looks like a nightmare to localize.

Because any potential TC announcement will rest upon the sales of SC. No point in being excited about something that is still a ways off.
hope has nothing to do with logic, I also wish we could wait slightly less than 10 years for a game to come to the west, don't you?
Ya I know, but that's so not fair

Basically.
So you would prefer omega labyrinth and valkyrie drive over
Ray Gigant and Stranger of the Village of the Sword
Grand Kingdom and Exist Archive
zodiac
and others
Well we don't have the same tastes that's for sure.

Nah I think everybody should get the games they want actually. I'm happy for any announcement.
In a perfect world we would get everything and everyone would be happy, but in this world there are limited localization slots and while i'm sure some nsfw games are good, there are many as good(or better) sfw game that by default are more appealing for a wider audience.
Maybe it could sound a little cynic but it's not that vita lacks pandering games.

Seems like XSEED has more than enough to keep them busy as is with the Falcom and Marvelous developed software.
so basically what I want is more important than what you want? My top priority is The Legend of Heroes series, I want them all on PC and that's much more important than any games from your list!
Not saying I would be excited for pervy games, I wouldn't, but Yian is right this time, someone wants those games too, unfortunately for us.

I really don't think a game like VD would take away a "localization slot". No one can really complain about XSEED's lineup and I hope they keep doing what they're doing.
For example, otomes are really not my thing, but I'd be very happy for some people if they decided to localize some.
Hearing that from you is rare

I can't find the posts right now, but Tom has always made it clear that if XSEED are interested in a game they'll find a way to get it into their localization lineup, regardless of what else they're doing.
Yeah, and never has that been more outwardly apparent than 2015. *Man* do we have a lot of games on our plate this year.

I don't get all the fears for net high's localization, as you can see here...
...it already has English texts
huh, looks like normal width too
maybe it won't be impossible to localize then

And a certain Samurai Action game from January still hasn't been grabbed for the west yet...
*massively subtle hint*
Everyone was saying what they were hoping for and I just said my idea, right or wrong it was still just my opinion.
Let's clarify one thing, i'm not against fanservice in games or their localization, i enjoyed Akiba's Trip and Monster Monpiece for example, i just think that when there's a limited choice the best of the best should be the priority, and often(not always obviously) fanservice heavy games are mediocre or with limited audience.
Well I guess that probably the "slot" of a fanservice game wouldn't have been destined to other kind of games anyway.I really don't think a game like VD would take away a "localization slot". No one can really complain about XSEED's lineup and I hope they keep doing what they're doing.

<3 you guys.
I'm so buying Corpse Party today even if I haven't finished Book of Shadows.
Now give me Tokyo Xanaduuuuuuu.

Hmm, I wonder whether Tokyo Xanadu will fall in the "Falcom doesn't care about west" bag (in XSEED PR "Falcom is busy with new Ys and Kiseki and they don't have many resources available for localization work") or the "Falcom preassuring XSEED for quick western release" bag (in XSEED PR "Falcom came to us about jumping series order with Trails of Cold Steel and everything is awesome"). Could change "I wonder" with "I'm afraid" too.

Quantitiy of audience appeal is not the only relevant factor.
Where do you find reliable customers that have no problem paying fullprice day1 or heck buying 150+$ figurines for their favourite characters. On the other side you have millions of potential low quality customers that aren't even willing to pay a dollar. Though playing armchair analyst is pretty useless anyways, I just want games that I want to play and don't give a shit about anybody else.
Also why the fuck is everything pandering nowadays? You think all those artist hate drawing cute girls and would totally make Berseker instead, if they just had the chance? Maybe they just like the style aswell, as evident by the thousands of high quality artists drawing ecchi/porn for fun.

Looking forward to the announcements. Gimme that Tokyo Xanadu and other release dates.

I think the latter is more likely, the only things they were "too busy" for were the Celceta PSTV patch and Brandish, and we ended up getting the latter eventually anyway.
Now that we're on the topic of weird games that won't get localized: I Thought It'd be Harem Paradise, but it Turned Out Yandere Hell
I've never stopped wanting this.

You're right. This is probably it.

Odd that I never read any actual impressions of it. I don't know if Yandere Hell ended up as a bad game or if the story was actually good.
Anyone there played it ?

I have it, the VA work was pretty shoddy. Kinda lost interest in it and stopped. In Japan seems to be lukewarm in general about it for those who did pick it up. Asides from that did not look too much into detail in regards to the overall reception past that though.
Just looked at a site that can have useful reviews by users, but literally no one wrote any for the game.
One of the more common comments Ive seen about the title is that people wonder if the developers actually understand what a Yandere character is. lol
Seems like this guy has a bunch of vids uploaded if you want to watch it

The obsession with this title here seems to be solely focused on the novelty of the premise and the fact that it's a console game.

I dont even know where my copy went, thats about how much I care about the title. Its here somewhere, but where dont know dont care lol.
Doubt Id ever go back to the game as didnt care for the low quality VA work at all. Which is pretty important considering thats a large part of VAs outside of the artwork and scenario.

I made the same mistake.
Until you have to ride your bike around the island at her running speed every day for the rest of the game. And if you get more than like 5 meters behind or ahead she stops and has an unskippable bit of dialogue you gotta sit through.
And then every day the route uses the same dialogue. over. and over. and overgtbfsbzgbdafzdfzfbsng

Sounds like a well designed game.
