These games have been delisted

[tony_snake_24]

Both games, Vividred Operation: Mayonnaise with Akane! and Vividred Operation: Hyper Intimate Power! are digital only releases and have been delisted from the PS Store.

 

If you copy and paste the japanese characters on PS Prices you'll get no results. https://psprices.com/region-jp/search/?q=ビビッドレッド&platform=PS3&content_type=

 

In the trophy guide of Mayonnaise with Akane! on PS3Imports, a user going by the name "dragonslayer023" asked the following on 2020: "Any way to get this game and Hyper Intimate Power nowadays? Maybe someone selling/sharing an account?" which further leads me to think these were delisted.

 

This youtube video's description says that Hyper Intimate Power! is "exclusive for PS3 in Japanese PSN as digital purchase only." and that you need a japanese PS3 to play it or else it will say there was an error because of region lock. I thought the PS3 was region free so I'm not sure about this.

Finally, I found this article that says that there's a "limited distribution version" of Hyper Intimate Power!, which I assume is a physical format version of the game, but I couldn't find it on ebay or anywhere, so it's safe to assume it's an only digital game. It also mentions the release dates and pricepoints of both games.

All this information leads me to believe that both of the Vividred Operation games were delisted at some point between their release on 2013 and 2020.

That's unfortunate that it's also digital only. Thanks for looking this up. I couldn't find it typing the name of the edition that was in the article on google
