Also anyone know what the difference between the Dreamcast "Mizuiro" and the Dreamcast "Mizuiro: Limited Edition" is?

First, the price (Y6800 vs. Y7900).
There only will be 30000 LE produced.
The packaging is different.
There are a telephone card and... what the hell is a "cat tin DC taste/flavour"? Anyway, all info at http://www.neic.co.jp/game/mizuiro/special.html

Though it probably (at least I hope so) isn't, it looks suspicously like cat food. ^^;

Yeah, it's gorgeous. I've been drooling about this DC release since months while reading the articles in the many games mags... ^^;;;;;

Not sure if anyone mentioned this but, I had to stop playing Ginro: Silver for a bit. The 2 storys that I completed were just so well done, that that brought me to tears.

Now that’s a well done story, when it takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions so much that you need to step back for a bit from it.

Well the yellow ribbon does look like ears.

Why did this weird commercial just pop into my head.

I just wish that Neko Neko would make their game more happy . I think the writer for Giniro has some previous isues with girls by the way he wrote the story line for the game . Damn, I’m still missing some CGs and the flash back option is still unaccessable, better go back on it . Sakamoto-san, did you had better luck on it than me .

The mystery of the tin can was revealed at NCS! (whom apparently thought it was a can of cat food as I did ^_-)

Turn out they gave both girls on the can cat ears behind the ribbon and a tail. ^^;

A band-aid and piece of yellow paper. ^^

Glad I bought one right away, aregatou kame-sama ! Anyway I still can’t find all CGs and can’t find the way to review the scenes still .

I'm still missing five CGs in Giniro:

Page Four - bottom row far right
Page Five - top row second one
Page Five - bottom row far right
Page Six - top row third one
Page Six - second row first one

Do you have any of these?

I tried to go through all the first story options by choosing them one by one. I tried ten different ways, but did not get any new CGs. If there are more CGs they would probably be in the later stories (but I started with the first anyway). There are a lot of other options to choose though and several stories. The only thing about doing this is that it's pretty torturous to go through all those sad scenes over and over again.

It's just so sad. It's pretty hard to take even when using "skipping" mode. [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/frown.gif[/img]

Nope, do you think its a system problem [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/frown.gif[/img]? Maybe it's not totally compatible to English Windows that's why we can't all the bonuses [img]http://princess.cybrmall.net/ubb/confused.gif[/img]

Fun how this thread is mixing both “Giniro” and “Mizuiro” games… ^^;;;;;
Anyway, got time to play “almost” complete DC Mizuiro. These are my opinions.

  • Overall, I liked the game: it’s not as wonderful as some, but I enjoyed it. It won’t end up being one of my fav. bishoujo games, but I think it’s worth every yens I spent on it.
  • IMHO, the stories aren’t that impressive and are fairly predicable (in fact, the only story I was wrong guessing the plot was Hiyori [see spoilers part for more], but I liked the way the story was told, the childhood features and the fact the girls’ stories are revealed little by little by you having access to their own thoughts (i.e. you don’t only see the protagonist POV but also the girls’)
  • My fav. stories are Mutsuki and Hiyori.
  • Incidently, my fav. characters are also Mutsuki and Hiyori.
  • God! I never saw/played a character that lazy!!! He’s spending most of his time sleeping (even during classes!)
  • Howcome the girls even stand him? He’s mean to all of them, save Yuki!
  • Mutsuki not being hyper-genki is… disturbing.
  • What the hell is the protagonist doing to Mutsuki? Hitting her? Slapping her? Send her flying? ^^;;;;;;
  • The omake stories are… stupid. In the laughable way. KYOKASKI shudders
  • Why am I under the feeling the DC version is missing CGs (except for the obvious adult ones, of course)?
And now, the…

…part.

  • In Hiyori’s story, I really thought she was dead! ^^;;;;;;
  • What is Mutsuki’s sister name? Is it given in the PC version or on some official page?
  • I wonder… Do we have the “true” Mutsuki in all stories save hers and her sister in that stories or do we never have Mutsuki but always her sister, just with different personnalities?
  • If Mutsuki was to know about her sister past cheat and now situation, how high is the probability of a love triangle between the protagonist, her and her sister? ^^;;;;;;
  • How the hell are you getting into the hidden character’s (“Hiyori” special) stories? The booklet isn’t very informative about it… (the reason why she’s an hidden character, I guess… )

In conclusion, I think I’m gonna buy the PC version… and the Giniro game since I’m at it! :slight_smile:

Sold it? Damn, time to do some heavy hunting. ^^
