TakiMinase 148 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 JP market squeeze (eroge sales are dropping every year) will eventually force them to negotiating table, if they want to keep lights on. Key wanted six-digits for rights to "Clannad" initially too. Hopefully, that will happen sooner rather than later ... Their shit is overdue for some official release Jast&co were complaining 24/7 about evil pirates ruining them, when their shovelware/censored/already fantranslated games didn't sell as well as they wanted, so they reap what they sow now. Actual ratio of units sold:units pirated in western developed countries (If you count someone from Vietnam, Brazil or Philippines, who earns 300$/month, that's downloading your 60$ game as "lost sale", you're fucking retarded) is similar, if not lower than in Japan. I didn't say I agree with Eushully's assessment. In fact, you'd see that many of these fanTLs and pirated releases only helped boost the popularity for VNs. That's why we had even some successfull KSs like Sharin no Kuni, Muv Luv and some others. Well... they aren't wrong. Open up any torrent with western release, and you will see thousands of Japanese IP in peer list. Yes, I see often JP pirates in the peer list Link to post Share on other sites
Rain Spectre 30 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 MG has a huge backlog of material that's finished translating and editing. It's just a question as to which gets a release date first. Link to post Share on other sites
Rain Spectre 30 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Key was demanding Six-Digits for Clannad? That's...kind of insane, considering how well-known the studio and its work is in the general community. Link to post Share on other sites

HYBRID BEING 27 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 On a topic of shit overdue for western release, i certainly wouldn't mind FSN or Tsukihime (or Mahoyo). Well, unlikely that would happen before we see the day Tsukihime Remake is out, lol. Link to post Share on other sites
Zero Dilemma 338 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Hopefully, Amatsutsumi and Sakura no mori dreamers will also be translated soon. Link to post Share on other sites

Rain Spectre 30 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 It looks like an incredibly generic romance VN to me, and there's a whole bunch of stuff on MG's current lineup that's way more interesting. Link to post Share on other sites
Rain Spectre 30 Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 So, did JAST give any translation updates at their recent panel? Link to post Share on other sites
littleshogun 1617 Posted May 27, 2018 Author Share Posted May 27, 2018 As for JAST, usually they did the panel at AX. So if we want to know whether their announcement will be either good or bad, we need to wait until AX later. Oh and their recent announcement here is leaning toward bad to me, because some of those announcements are redundant. Link to post Share on other sites
