Though there are endless petitions of Tokimeki Memorial, Konami (to quote somebody else) simply doesn't care to bring it over here. AFAIK, there aren't that much demand for Doukyuusei, though I wish somebody licence it...

BTW, there is no adult version of Tokimeki Memorial.

Dokyusei was made by elf,right? Few Japanese companies are interested in bringing games over here, unless we show them that the American marketplace is profitable.

I wonder if Microsoft could be coaxed into licensing something “groundbreaking” for the XBox…

Einhancer, do you see now why we all think Kumiko is adorable

You need a bishojo review site ? Maybe the customers can work on it ?

Sure, Do you know any bishojo game review sites? maybe we could get a petition or a demand started.

I will definitely petition for Dokyusei even though it’s an old game . I would really commend and support the company that will release it in the American market .

there are some games I’ve had my eye on :
Bad End from ruf’s page.
vie from sweet basils page.
and the games on the whole site, with thier links cut off.

If we start a petition on this board will they notice it ?

Well, a promotion would be better on a personal forum or page, really. That's how Anime Web Turnpike and Anime On DVD got started - they were just fan pages at first, basically.

Bad End is Ruf... and Ruf titles are a problem because they are third party licenses rather than solely Will's titles. Slave Bazaar will be an experiment to see if such titles sell well enough to interest other companies with products that Will publishes. Judging by the current market and sales of the four titles we have offered so far... well, we need about 10 times as many sales, Kumiko would say, so there's an awful lot of promotion work for the current titles that needs to be done. It can be done... although the present titles might never make it here, there's always the coming years. Vie has the same problem - it isn't a Will title, solely, since it was developed by a third party company and then published under their Sweet Basil label. Itsuka No Sora is also like that - it's a great game, and we'd love to do it, but it's a big question mark to convince the rights holders to work with us and Will until they see far more sales and demand. They expect mainstream demand, pretty much - mainstream adult material, at least.

By the way, if there is some confusion about what is meant by "third party product"... just think of how many games are developed over here, today. Kumiko used the example of Half-Life elsewhere - Sierra published Half-Life, but Valve is the company who developed it and owns the rights to it. Sierra shares the rights, but they can't go out and license the work without Valve's approval - for example, when additional installments were done, it had to be authorized. When the game was slated to be put on the Dreamcast, it had to be authorized by Sierra and Valve. Etc. That's how it works, more or less - at least from a high level point of view.


what is url for games review?

Unfortunately, the Right Stuf website doesn’t take review submissions for games; I’d have been happy to offer a rave writeup or two otherwise.

I’m surprised nobody has mentioned GameFAQs. They even have an entry in their directory for Snow Drop; there are no reviews there, unfortunately. I am planning to do one myself…eventually…when I have time. ><

What about Anime Densetsu?

Hey ! Why don 't we start a fan website on our own like Kumiko said, I am playing X-change again, Nande is (hopefully making a review of Snow Drop and who knows other people might be interested as well. This could work out couldn 't it ?
