"While straying away from the “ero” content, the game does well to capture your immediate attention at given points. For instance, when you first arrive in Japan you are looking for two “boys” by the name of Makoto and Akira. While many males in Japan may have those given names, it is not uncommon to see a lot of Japanese names interchanged between male and female. So one could imagine the boy’s shock when finding out that he would be staying with two girls – rather than boys – in a home. Alone… You may have decided to leave out adult themed content, but the “intrigued” player will certainly be enticed."
Hardcore Gamer: "Go! Go! Nippon! ~My First Trip to Japan~ isn’t a particularly recent visual novel. In fact, it came out in English back in 2011, although the Steam release was far more recent. As such, it’s a bit surprising to see DLC come out for it!"
Pre-orders have opened for Go! Go! Nippon! 2015, the expansion to MangaGamers’ all ages visual novel guide to Japan.
Go Go Nippon is getting an update, MangaGamer announced at AKON this week. A new version of the game, titled Go Go Nippon 2015, will be released as an update for the original game, and will add nearly twice the amount of content.
