Project Rising Beetle: "Famitsu’s website has shared our first screenshots for Medarot DUAL. Unfortunately, their coverage of the game doesn’t share more information than what we already know. We’ve also included some magazines scans (more like magazine snapshots) from the issue that reveals some new player characters, as well as some returning characters from Medarot 7. Speaking of which, it appears the game uses the Medarot 7 graphics engine."
Project Rising Beetle: "Over the last few years we’ve seen Natsume express interest in the localization of Medarot games on the Nintendo 3DS. Unfortunately, that interest has yet to materialize itself in the form of western video game releases. Natsume has stated on more than one occasion that was by no fault of their own. While their answers left room for speculation, they never elaborated on the exact reason … until now. In an interview with video game podcast Fragments of Silicon, Graham Markay, Director of Operations at Natsume, discussed a whole host of topics, including a few Medarot fans will want to hear the answer to."
Project Rising Beetle: "The cover of Role Playing Gameside Vol. 2 states that the Medarot video game series has sold more than 3 million units globally. The Japanese magazine will contain a 21-page retrospective on the franchise’s past 17 years in addition to an interview with Medarot series artist Horuma Rin.
Created by Imagineer and Natsume, the Medarot games series started in 1997 on the Nintendo Gameboy. Since then the series has grown to encompass over 20 individual games. The latest entry, Medarot 8, launched on Nintendo 3DS in Japan last August."
Edition 59 of a [sometimes] weekly column about Japanese game releases in... well, Japan. This week the focus is on God Eater 2 for the Vita, and a handful of niche titles.
Basically the column functions to highlight imports and give brief impressions/synopsis' for releases that are otherwise ignored by the rest of the media
Still waiting for Either Chinese version or Localization, OR the english patch DLC... xD
English localisation please!! Still playing GE:Burst and am dieing to play GE2 :)
