Bad Demoman writes, "You know, sometimes I'm not particularly comfortable with how comparable a lot of games are in the current gaming market. Anything with pixels and exploration is a Minecraft clone, for example. All MOBAs copied DoTA and anyone with the nerve to imply that any class based shooter isn't clearly a TF2 imitator is obviously in denial. However, Toukiden alleviates any apprehension I may have had about making the obvious comparison it has, Monster Hunter. When it was first released on PSP and Vita in fact, Tecmo Koei admitted it had been developed in order to fill the hole Monster Hunter left when it made the switch to 3DS. That's a big hole to fill, especially for the Japanese market where Monster Hunter is absolutely huge. As you may know, many of us here at Morbid Play think Monster Hunter is pretty damn good, so Toukidens PC release, subtitled Kiwami, drew our attention."
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "What I aim to examine in this article is the output of each of the major localization companies, in terms of what they released, what they chose not to release (including when they localized titles for other platforms but skipped the Vita version), as well as some brief commentary on the quality of their translations, before providing an overall rating on their support (outstanding -> amazing – > good -> solid -> poor).
A large part of the reason I love Vita so much is thanks to its brilliant selection of Japanese games and that’s really what I want to celebrate here, but also lament some of the missed opportunities we had along the way."
