I agree with that topic. Will lot of people try to finish their game by self. and people say to many things about the hints on games it is not fun at all.
Hello, Kumiko-san! Well, if you’re worried about the fact that things may not go well if
people don’t buy your products or buy pirated copies, then maybe I can make you a bit happier by telling you that I will buy some of your games! (as soon as I’ve gotten around some… problems that stands
in the way, that is…). But, if you don’t mind, I’d like to ask if you really have to rely on the income of this first year?? I mean, after all, it is your first year, and, well…
I have a friend, you see, who started a company with some of his friends and he told me once that “When you start a company, you can’t except the incomes to be higher than the expenses, because that it usually takes around 3-5 years before the company is well-known enough to make more money than it loses”. So, try to not be too worried about it, ok!? I’m sure that things will get better after a while…
And if not, then it would be a real shame if you vanquished from the market just because that some people brought pirated copies instead of buying them legally… . and also, remember that there’s actually various customers and others out there who’re doing their best to support you by buying your games among other things (just don’t count me in there until I’ve brought at least one of your games, ok? )
Anyway, this was the first words of the Spectator Beholder I will probably write some things here and there now and then, but mostly I’m somewhat quiet,
so you may not hear as much from me here as from some others on these boards. Well, have a nice day! Woo-hoo!
I am very intersted to build websites for games, but I don’t have time.
Ah, I see¬Ö Well, it’s in other words like the situation for anime and manga here in my country¬Ö there’s no real market for it here in my country, mostly because anime and manga have a infamous reputation, if you say so¬Ö Most people here thinks that all anime and manga either is like Urotsukidoji or Akira or simply thinks that it’s just some thing for children, and it’s REALLY hard to try and convince people that they’re wrong ¬ñ that it’s so much more than just that¬Ö And the situation’s not getting any better because of various reasons¬Ö But then, again, we’ve managed to get some small success in our cause, for example, thanks to our demands, a company here decided to buy the rights to the Tenchi Muyo OAV, then they subbed and sold some cassettes to various stores here¬Ö but they stopped at part four, because that the profit wasn’t high enough, sadly¬Ö
I know that it took anime much more time than just five years to get to where it is today, and then I can also imagine how much harder it must be for the Bishoujo genre, because that it’s a genre that it may be kind of hard for some people to “accept”, even if it’s certainly not the only reason ^_^;. But peoples uncertainness towards the bishoujo genre, can be “erased”, by telling them that “it may not be as bad as they think”, if you see what I mean, by, as you said, discussions in various forums and such.
Anyway, I’m sure that we here on the forums will do our best to support you so that you may gain a better profit in the future, right, you guys!? covers my ears in hope to save what little hearing I still have from the sound of the booming “YEEEES!!!” that echoes through the forums Well, as you see, even if you don’t have enough support to make a really big profit, you still have people who support you to the very end, right?
Hmm, think I gotta go now… must still figure out how to… oh, never mind . See ya next time!
Hey, Kumiko…If I write a book, similar to the catcher in the rye, and mention something about bishoujo games and your company…Will it be alright???..hehehe…Just joking …I doubt if I could even write one decent sentence with my pitiful english…^^
Anyway, I better start analyzing that stupid book for my english class tomorrow…

You know there really isn't much info out there at all. The last time I looked up these games was back when there were only a small handful of English translated games released
Yeah, I wouldn't have know about this all and missed out on these great games if it wasn't for a thread I saw on a message board.

One sure fire way to get publicity would be to get one of those groups who complain about adult games to complain about you. Just show them bits from Tokimeki Check-in and Water Closet and I am sure there will be tons of offended people. After all look what happened when people complained about Doom
(For those of you who can’t tell I am being sarcastic, please do not take that seriously).
