Little My Maid is out!

It’s out! It’s ready! After a period of time that’s so long we don’t want to think about it, we’re extremely happy to announce that Little My Maid is in stock in our San Diego office. We’re commencing processing all the preorders, and should have everything out to everyone soon. We are extremely pleased to have this great game out finally, almost as pleased as we are to have such loyal and patient customers. Thank you for your support! With incredibly beautiful characters, gorgeous art by one of Japan’s most famous game and manga artists, full facial animation during spoken lines, and a fantastic story, this is one of the best games that has ever been brought to the English market. Also, you get cool free stuff like cute PVC keychains and laminated cards and more, while supplies last (don’t worry, we’ve got enough stock of everything for the first thousand people at least).

But there’s more news to tell you. The latest G-Collections game, Pick Me, Honey!, is out and has been posted to the site, too, ready for your immediate order. In this game you play a Japanese youth who is ordered by his father to choose a bride among the beautiful girls around him – childhood friend Hazuki, the live-in adopted sister Chihiro, sexy cousin Mio, teacher Futaba, and the totally grown-up Yoriko. But all of the girls want you to pick them, and they’ll stop at nothing to win your heart. A superb brand-new English dating-sim brought to you by Trabulance, and at the new lower G-Collections price, too.

There are plenty of other cool items on the site, in case you haven’t been by in a while. Hitomi - My Stepsister is a very popular title that explores some of the most timeless bishoujo gaming themes. Let’s Meow Meow is a great romp through the Japanese wacky genre of cat-girls. X-Change 3 is officially announced and available for preorder. There’s so much cool stuff, it’s a great time to be a bishoujo gaming fan!

It’s a good time to reflect and look back on the past year and all that’s happened. We really got a lot done, and brought the wonderful world of Japanese dating-sim games to more fans than ever. Since it was the end of our “clean up period,” when we got the games that had been delayed for so long out the door to you, we really feel a sense of accomplishment and what we’ve done. Now we’re looking to the future, and we’re happy to say we’ll have some exciting new announcements for you soon. With your support, we can make 2005 the best year for bishoujo gaming ever. Thanks, and the warmest wishes from all of us this season!

That’s all for now – thanks for supporting bishoujo games!

Yeah, our emails told us.

I’m sorry if this is offensive, but I would have appreciated a post that wasn’t just a paste from the email newsletter.

Also, people who ordered through J-List still haven’t gotten their mails…

Hi Peter, I really hope your crew at PP will properly package our preorders in a box (instead of the usual padded envelope) so the cards, comic (if I’m one of the lucky ones) and stuff don’t get mangled in transit.

That would suck hugely to have waited for 4+ years for LMM to come out only to have the extra goodies get destroyed because PP was too cheap to use an actual box to pack up the stuff in.

And here I thought it was only the Norwegian postal services who brutally violated packages sent through them...

Same here!! Only thought that it was the Swedish postal service who did that to parcels [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img] LOL

I’m definitely in favor of hard-cased shipping for this order. It would definitely be a shame to have the extras smashed in-transit.

Sorry guys, some things are truly universal including the tendency of the local post office gorillas to smash up whatever they get their hands on. It gets even worse if you mark "FRAGILE" on the box.

Here they're almost as bad as the gorillas that handle your luggage at the airport. [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sorry if my pasting the post offended. It was, like, 2 am and I had a choice of not posting anything or posting that. My vision was blurring…

#9

I see.
No harm done.

#10

I really want the game omake but I can’t order it till after new years. Bah Humbug

#11

I agree with hard boxes. My Hourglass of Summer that I ordered from J-list was smashed when I got it.

Believe me, if i restrain myself from buying anything from internet is because the Postal service sucks (not only they are late, but they think the carry iron bars that dont need any care).

So, i'm trully sad saying this, i'll have to wait till the shop-manager where i buy most of my games gets his hands on the game so i can buy it to him (i've already asked this for him, after many years, i'm like a 'special client' for him)

1 scene comes to mind, anyone remember the open scene to Ace Ventura 1? where hes playing a mail currier kicking a box full of what sounds to be glass… and fragile written all over it… ahh the postal service!

#14

What about Doushin? And I take it this is as close to official word as we're going to get that Slave Bazaar is a no-go?

Hi, about half of the games have already gone out. I am not 100% sure how they’re packaging them but I believe they’ll be fine – if this isn’t the case, contact me and we’ll do what we can. The omakes are still in stock and will be for 6 months or more, so if you haven’t ordered the game yet, feel free to do so.

MAN it’s nice getting the game out. It’s really been my favorite of any game so far, although with 1800 files to edit, it wasn’t all fun…

Hallo!
just wanted to congratulate you on release and wish you Merry Christmas!

#20

hmm… I take it since I haven’t seen a message yet telling me my copy has been sent that I somehow ended up on the back end of that list… Wasn’t their soem extra that Peach Pri was including on the first X # of orders?
