Decay Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 It's very believable that they had to translate large parts (or maybe even all) of Sumaga, since the fan project they picked up was of rather low quality. The same doesn't seem to be what's happening with SakuSaku. Who knows what's up with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freestyle80 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 they are not even announcing anything, probably pushed a few more months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandemonai Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 They at least mentioned it on their Twitter late last week, so I expect an announcement of some kind relatively soon. Apparently last weekend was a holiday weekend in Japan, so I don't expect much to have actually happened in the last few days. The almost total lack of communication is pretty inexplicable, though. Come on, guys! It's not hard to say "We're still looking into it" periodically! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littleshogun Posted September 29, 2017 Author Share Posted September 29, 2017 (edited) Interesting to knew that it was the time zone that caused Tokeijikake release date was quite unstable there, and I think seeing that Sekai was always prone to delay I say that November would be the best bet for now. By the way, my Google Chrome showed that it would be released at November and here's the picture to prove that: https://imgur.com/muaHf8v Let's back to the topic here now that Sekai finally had the Steam store page for this VN, and it would be released at October 2nd which is quite near. Well, at least they ready for the release now although I still waiting for their answer in regard of 18+ version though.

Nandemonai Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 Oh, hey, nice find. Hopefully it hits Denpasoft around the same time (that was their original plan, but after what happened I wouldn't be surprised if that was also out the window).

For me still says Nov 2017 guess its cuz i'm from Australia (but we get the US store ugh) so SakuSaku releases in 3 days, my break just ended so i cant play till November Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandemonai Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 Well, good old Sekai Project mentioned the new release date on their sekaiproject twitter, but not their denpasoft_pr twitter. What that means, I guess we'll find out on Monday. It probably just means they're busy at a con this weekend. Doesn't mean it's not annoying.

ChaosRaven Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) Uh, my poor backlog! But I really had to get this title. But Jesus, a 7 GB download?!? Is this even compressed? Edited October 2, 2017 by ChaosRaven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamaki Sakura Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 How much H is there in this VN? The price difference between the Steam and Denpa versions is a staggering $20!!! That seems like a ridiculous amount to pay just for a couple of H scenes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decay Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 The Steam version is currently $16 with discount, which seems incredibly low for a 35-40 hour multi-route VN. So if any of the prices were to be adjusted, I'd say raise the steam price. $40 base price is the standard price I'd expect to pay for an uncut 40 hour moege these days.

Dergonu Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 The prize of the Japanese download edition on DMM is 7800 yen, so... Even the Denpasoft version is much cheaper than the original. (With the current discounted price on Denpa it is 3600 yen, which is weird, considering this has to factor in localization costs and such.) Ah, how spoiled the western market is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benji Price Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I now this is not the topic and I ask for your forginess, but still I think is better than starting a new topic for such an idiot question. You think the +18 version of Tokeijikake will be available shortly after the steam version ?? VNDB only says 2017 for the +18 while 2017-10 for the other.

Decay Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 That's just because there's no estimate given by Denpasoft like there is for the Steam version. I think it's reasonably safe to think that the 18+ version will come at the same time, but I suppose that's not a guarantee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, it's been so long I don't have access to the email accounts I used to buy G-Collections releases when they were new ... but the wayback machine tells me in 2006, $39.95 was the standard G-C package edition price (I checked Come See Me Tonight, Crescendo, and Do You Like Horny Bunnies 2). Downloads were $5 cheaper. (They only wanted $34.95 for I'm Gonna Nurse You, though.) And this was in 2006 dollars. I think it's after Peter Payne took over following G-C folding up shop (Figures of Happiness was their last release), but before he rolled out big changes later. Shortly after this most GC games were $20. But in the immediate aftermath of their collapse, I don't think the prices had changed. I think this is what G-C charged back in the day. So in the 2006 capture of the G-Collections site seen here you can see the pricing of the G-C catalogue. Now, after adjusting for inflation, $40 in 2005 is about $49 today. I haven't actually started playing SakuSaku yet, but it is, I hear, pretty damn good. Paying $40 for it sure beats paying $49 plus shipping (don't remember how much it would've been) for Come See Me Tonight (which, uh, is not). $20 plus launch discount seems undervalued, honestly. I probably would not sell it that cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleshogun Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 (edited) Congratulation in regard of the belated release of Saku Saku there, and I'm quite happy that Sekai managed to get the 18+ was released around the same time as Steam version considering that there's no word in regard of that beforehand. If you already had that have fun for playing Saku Saku here, and feel free to use this thread as the discussion thread here - it's been two almost two year since I'd made this thread. PS - About Saku Saku itself, I would say it should be good although perhaps it would be better not to expect much though considering that this had some supernatural element from the love fairy alone, which mean it bound to had some deus helping us later. In short, just had fun and don't expect much here if some of you didn't want to be disappointed here. Especially to @ChaosRaven here in which I afraid that he might not enjoy this, and by the way the size was indeed 7 GB from what I saw at some site that list the file size.
