i would love a guide to xchange to put on my site…

i’d also love if someone would be kind enough to write me a guide of Tokimeki checkin…i’m looking for a very specific type of guide…i don’t want to provide a complete walkthrough, but a little more detailed than the one they have here on peapri…

i’m looking for a guide that has complete walkthrough for each character and ending up to the end of Day 1…then after that, just little hints about each character’s personality and where they might like to hang out…i’ve found that most people can roleplay their way to each ending if they just get what to do on day 1, but it doesn’t give everything away

Okay, I don't like to inflict my work on nice people right off the bat but I'll send it to you first. [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/wink.gif[/img]

More detailed than the PeaPri once?!? [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/eek.gif[/img]

Well, PeaPri really didn't want to give step by step walkthroughs, even partial ones. But everything you need is actually there. They did a great job of balancing giving away too much info and not enough. (I sorta studied the TCI guide to figure out how to start putting together the Snow Drop one.) I know that's one of the main problems I've been having, avoiding giving away too much info. (That and substituting the wrong words. I found several times where I wrote Keika as 'Keiki'. 'Keiki' is Hawaiian for child.) Anyways, I'm sure you'll end up with more than enough guides and reviews from the people here to fill your site in no time!

i hope so, because all my time is filled with trying to get all the coding done on the site itself! i’ve got no time to write my own reviews and guides

#25

that is why i want guides for tokimeki that only walk-thru day 1…there is very little hentai in the first day, and some people really need help just getting on the path for the girl they want to pursue…then after day 1, they still have the whole rest of the game to roleplay, and besides, by the time they go for the guide, they’ve already read the dialogue for the first day about twenty times anyway (atleast that is how i work)…

i’m going with this philosophy for a game guide because it really helped me for people to just tell me how to get day 1 correct for whatever girl i had trouble with…then i could figure the rest out myself…a game ceases to be fun when you try fifty times to do something and keep failing

#26

I only use a walkthrough when I played more than month (and when I played it much), I usually replay the game after a half a year to a year or so. I want to play EBE again and Desire too, but first X-change, I need to make a guide

But I do think that...oh, wait, you're talking about in the games right? [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/tongue.gif[/img]

Mindsets are definitely important in the roleplaying aspect. I know Snow Drop was also difficult for me before I realized that I wasn't focusing right. In that particular case, focusing on Minoru instead of the girls got me to the second part and it just sorta made sense when I did it. That mindset also helped when I was working with the guide I was doing as well. [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/smile.gif[/img] (For those of you wondering, I did turn my draft over to Dave E. and company this weekend and I'm sure he or someone else at PeaPri will be putting out a more human friendly, and more correct than mine, form in the near future.)

Actually, I think the idea of a "bishoujo character" guide is pretty good. And probably the most helpful for begining players. But here's an interesting thought, just how many "stereotypes" are there for bishoujo characters? I mean, if I think of characters in the game, immediately to mind comes the lolicon, tomboy, intellectual, and shy romantic stereotypes. But there are others, but how many can you actually define and put into a guide? (Ack, I feel like I'm giving myself a new writing assignment...I need another hobby...

Wow, X-change is a lot more popular than I thought it was. I will never understand why eBay bids will often soar past the item’s original retail price. I see one listed for X-change, and it’s already past the $50.00 mark. Don’t people know there’s actually a Peach Princess that retails the game for $35.00, or any one of the few Anime retailers sell it for less? Not even out of print. Either that, or this is some underaged kid that can’t get ahold of the game otherwise because his, or her, big brother or big sister wouldn’t help charge the purchase to a credit card.

I had some problems with snow drop too, I focused too much on one girl, if I said something something wrong I restarted for example

yeah you are right about the stereotypes, nurses are pretty common too, but I like them very much

#30

They’ll think I’m some freak if I tell them about Peach Princess, and if they are underaged it would be especially troublesome since their parents think I’m some henna gaijin trying to indoctrinate them with naked women.

You mean you're not?!? [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/smile.gif[/img]

Okay, I'm kidding. But if the person who posted the item listed them correctly, nobody underage should be bidding on them anyways! (Well, technically, nobody underage should be bidding period but that's another matter.)

Ebay is always a fun lesson in economics. Sometimes it is people who don't know there's a cheaper retail place to get items. Sometimes it's supply and demand. Sometimes people just want the item no matter what. I know that in the past I've been able to sell stuff at ridiculous prices or get an awesome bargin at times, other times I just got burned. I'd double check on Ebay's policy concerning contacting people before anything though. They're touchy on the subject.

#32

Oh, I see how it is. The guy is a seasoned eBayer like I am and he included a link to reduced sized screenshots from X-change. Customers usually like to see what they’re getting and he’s clever enough to put in the extremely titillating images. Ok, it’s more like images so erotic it’s enough to shake your pants off. And you’re right, I don’t think I can contact them before the auction ends since eBay has erected a policy that prohibits someone else from making under the table offers, lure them away to another auction, that kind of stuff.

Oh and I’m not a freak nor am I a henna Gaijin. ^_^;;

Heh, I just took a look at that auction. The ironic thing is, the guy has the PeaPri site link there. And just judging by the bid history, I’m guessing both bidders didn’t check out the link. Too bad the profit would be going to the seller instead of PeaPri themselves.

P.S. I am a freak and proud of it!

I bet you they are underaged. Can’t order otherwise from Peach Princess. If I remember correctly eBay only requires you to agree to their privacy statement and be honest about being at least of driving age. However, I heard driving age down in Georgia is 15…

#35

Shoot, I just looked at the demo movies again, and they all look good. I don’t have my own income yet, I’m going to feel so guilty preordering all these things. Maybe I’ll just wait till it comes out then order it from Planet Anime or Anime Castle.

Within Ebay’s user’s agreement, it says that the service is not available to minors which is a little vague. But when you try to register as a US person (I’m saying this because I havn’t tried it for other countries.) there’s a statement in bright red letters that says you must be 18 years or older to use Ebay. In general, except in specific cases, you are considered a minor in the US as long as you are under 18 and your parents are still legally responsible for you. (Or something like that, I know that since I was actually 17 when I entered college, I still had to get parental consent forms signed… )

Oh and although it’s been awhile and I���m not sure anymore, but the driving age in Hawaii is/was 15, at least that’s the age I got my license. I’m not sure because I havn’t been around for the past few years and it may have changed, after all they finally got the age of consent thing changed!

Sweet, I just got an email reply from one of the guys that bid on that X-change item I was talking about on eBay. I hope I indoctrinated enough background on the Bishoujo game genre into him that he’ll either become a loyal Bishoujo gamer or be scared to talk to me ever again. Either way, it’s a win win situation. :slight_smile:
