And I hope this helps to speed up the porting of Grisaia, WEE, fault and maybe some others. Edited June 13, 2016 by Crimson Idol 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priere Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Sekai Project Makes the Grisaia series, Sekai Project likes BL games. I obviously support them and find this move to be superior, really happy to know this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jantrick2 Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Cross-buy AND cross-save? I wonder how many Sekai Project games will be ported. Hopefully Clannad and Grisaia are part of this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigressLion Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 I am so proud to be owning a Vita!!! J-Games is love, J-Games is life<<<<<. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dysphasic Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 More VNs on the vita or the ps4 is always a plus. At this point I don't really care which system but vita is perfect for VNs. Here's hoping if they're really limited then it would have a large initial number for easy ordering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bladesoframen Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Not sure why was this news. The only thing I could interpret from this was that Sekai Project got a trusted group to do physical distribution for their Kickstarter projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonidol38 Posted June 13, 2016 Author Share Posted June 13, 2016 (edited) The only thing I wonder about: What besides the already "guaranteed" ports (fault, WW, Grisaia, Root Double) will be ported to PS4 and Vita. Maybe Clannad and planetarian? To be honest I can't think of much beside some games like Rabi-Ribi, Resette's Prescription or Tobari. Other games won't come over due to the fact they they highly focus on the Adult-version (NekoPara, Sakura-series). Not sure why was this news. The only thing I could interpret from this was that Sekai Project got a trusted group to do physical distribution for their Kickstarter projects. --> Mighty Rabbit Studios will assist Sekai Project in porting over many titles from their acclaimed library Sekai Project have a nice variation of several VNs and other doujin-games in their Steam-portfolio but they are a lazy bunch of people when it comes to porting their games to the promised platforms. For some games we already have to wait for about 2 years with anything relevant about the PSN-ports (WEE as an example). Therefor when Mighty Rabbit assists them doing the port-work, this might help to speed up everything. Edited June 13, 2016 by Crimson Idol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know with WEE, they had to work with the original devs to port over their entire code to the Unity Engine, and I know they want to use Unity for the rest of it. So it is possible for them to try other consoles besides Vita, but this really depends on how many of the original devs are willing to work with them to make a Unity version, which I guess Mighty Rabbit is helping with.

crimsonidol38 Posted August 13, 2016 Author Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) A new announcement: Narcissu 10th Anniversary Anthology Playstation 4 / Playstation Vita Adaptation Developer: stage-nana Narcissu, the popular thought provoking visual novel series about terminal illness, living, dying, and the relationship between those leaving and those left behind is coming to PS4™ and PS®Vita via Sekai Project and Limited Run Games. The console adaptation includes Narcissu 1st and 2nd and will have development materials and video footage about the game. Praised by fans for its moving story and high production quality, the original games have been download over a million times and spawned a manga and light novel, and has been localized in several languages across the world. This anthology finally brings the games that were never released outside of Japan in any form to the world for eager fans, as well as updating artwork, voice work, and a brand new written chapter exclusive to this anthology: "Sumire". Further breaking new grounds, this anthology builds on the massively popular music which has captured the hearts of thousands of Narcissu fans by adding 2 video game legends to the musical roster: Chris Huelsbeck of Turrican fame, and Hiroki Kikuta of Secret of Mana fame. http://us7.campaign-archive2.com/?u=74b800eadf353a0fe4d6dde43&id=c9588f04d2 Edited August 15, 2016 by Crimson Idol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crimsonidol38 Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 Holy hell, that picture is beautiful. The Narcissu-series really has a beautiful artstyle. Still need to read all those chapters, though. But I guess that I will now wait for the physical Vita-release. And now I wonder if the other two Sekai-Kickstarters with Vita-ports will also get physical releases. One was the Grisaia-trilogy and the other one Root Double -Before Crime * After Days. On the one hand I hope so and on the other hand I don't want that to happen as the download codes I will obtain as backer-rewards won't be useful to me anymore. >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same as for fault, WEE or the mentioned Root Double, so it could be possible. But before they announce something like that they should at least give people an estimated release date for the games or any update regarding the Vita.

IIRC I'm still tied to the "We will re-enable BackerKit once we have news about the game for Vita"-tier. Ah, screw you Sekai. =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it they're pretty popular in Japan? It kinda sucks that there aren't going to be any physical copies, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
