Welcome to the Japanese niche games deals and discussion thread!  Feel free to talk about local and import Japanese games here.  Our goal is to maintain a thread dedicated to active deals on niche games including RPGs, Visual Novels (VN), Shoot'em ups (Shmups), Musou, etc.  Also maintained are pre-orders for standard, limited and collector's edition games with key release dates provided.

I've wikified the thread to make it more friendly and open to others that can actively update with important information. You can find the wiki post directly below this one.

NOTE:  Please, leave the censorship discussion away from this thread.  It's common for japanese games to have questionable content outside of the country.  We want to keep discussions to the game itself and not about cultural/societal tolerance.

A message from Thorbahn:

Our CAG Japanese Niche Games Thread also has a community on PS4, where you can interact and game with other members of the thread.

Our moderators are: Draekon, Las_Hole, and Waffleswanton

You can basically friend any of our members, or any moderator, and you will be able to request to join the community under "Communities friends are in" tab, and a mod will approve your request.

You can also leave your PSN ID in the thread, saying you want to join, and we can invite you directly as well.

As always, have fun and enjoy your stay!

If there's an ESRB version with regular retail release, that's the version I want. I may not sell everything off, but I've sold enough off in the past to know it's much harder to unload a non USA released games in this situation. Uniformity is also part of it, which is why I'm so leery of buying from Amazon as it's so easy to end up getting different region version than what is pictured and then yes if there is DLC then you do need another regional account to get it (even if it's free). So, I want to keep it simple and know I have an easy path to sell later if I decide I'm fully done with something. I don't think I've ever gotten a UAE version of a game. So far I've avoided that even if it works fine, I wouldn't want the hassle later if I decide to sell something.

As for Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition, the stock for that was drying up back when Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity was about to release. I was lucky to just find a copy at a local walmart back in 2020. I opted out initially because I had grabbed the 3DS version when it was something like $20... but then playing the demo for Age of Calamity and I realized, I needed the original in Definitive Edition.

I made more progress on Xenoblade Chronicles last night. Chapter 9 was pretty easy to finish and before progressing deep into chapter 10, I went ahead and pulled a map for the Eryth sea and visited the three or four places I hadn't gone so the map would auto complete. I'm now into the next part and working the handful of new side missions (also completed the new side mission in the forest).

I don't mind UAE copies either. I do question if it's worth paying a few bucks more for a non-UAE version just for resale prospects, but that just comes down to "People find stuff valuable because they find stuff valuable". If people care, even without a good reason, non-UAE is worth more. I don't care though, and I don't resell very often either so I don't fret about them.

I assume it's just a "what is this? Why is this different? I'll just get the normal one just in case" reaction or similar to wanting a first print run if there was a cover art difference or something for most people.

Yep. People do things that are safe, and because "that's the way I've already done things". Nintendo fanatics are super screamy and stuck in their ways too. They want what they want when they want it.

Sure I will always try to get a domestic copy whenever possible. But when it's a price disparity of like say $60 for a US copy versus buying an EU one on Amazon for 30 bucks, well then the answer is obvious. The only time I've seen it make a difference is when there is a DLC code on a Playstation game or something, and then you can't redeem it on US PSN. But that's not even a thing with Nintendo; their games come complete. I also don't believe there are (m)any instances of separating multiplayer player pools or matchmaking for different regional discs any longer.

A few years ago I enjoyed importing several Switch CEs from the EU because they had much nicer editions. XC1 SE, BotW EU SE, Astral Chain, A Link to the Past, and Smash. It has been ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC that we are allowed to go region free now, and any cart will work with any NA eShop account or system. The freedom is lovely, and building a new age collection has never been more affordable.

I used to import a lot of EU CEs but as vendors started to just get worse and worse with the packaging, I stopped. I used to import like 5-10 games a year during the 2010s (which granted isn't a lot) but starting around 2019, this just went downhill fast and nearly every other import I got was badly damaged and shipping costs started to spike.

I loved that Sony stuck with region-free since the PS3 days but a lot of the import CEs I wanted were on the Wii/Wii U and 3DS, most of which I passed on except for Xenoblade, Last Story and Pandora's Tower before they got localized, and even splurged on extra copies/purchases to get the steelbooks from the CEs along with the box (from UK's Club Nintendo I think?):

EDIT* I actually have no idea what that Xenoblade steelbook is from though... don't think that game had a CE with a steelbook.

It was possible to region lock on PS3, though rare. Persona 4 Arena was region locked out of fear of reverse importation.
(Just an interesting fact, no real other point to my message)
I didn't know about most of those steelbooks/box, it looks nice - I had seen and considered purchasing The Last Story's steelbook off eBay in the past, it's pretty.
 
I had that collector's box that holds Pandora's Tower, The Last Story, Xenoblade Chronicles, and the collector's artwork book. You got it by buying Pandora's Tower at HMV. I remember they shipped it to me in a bubble mailer and it arrived beat up, so I sold it on ebay.

I bought it from eBay, took me like a month to find a seller who was willing to pack it up safely as long as I paid the shipping. Glad I did though. I also have the coins from... something, but no clue where they're from.

I still can't figure out where I got this Xenoblade steelbook.

The FF7 Rebirth demo was so good. Can't wait until it's out and I have a full week off work to enjoy the full game.

I just finished it myself and I'm just... way too excited for it. Nibelheim was huge, I feel like I missed a ton of stuff...

But at the same time, it was a refresher of how bad I am at games these days. I was fine with Remake but struggled hard here on that one Mako boss.

EDIT* Also just got a shipping notice for the CE from SE store.
 
Has anyone played Gotta Protectors Cart of Darkness? I literally just found out about this game. I'm late as hell, but it looks fantastic. I'm a sucker for NES era games. I saw it at my local game store. They have the physical copy for $40.
 
I haven't played Cart of Darkness, but I just finished the 3DS prequel and it was excellent. Especially if you're able to play co-op. There's a fair amount of depth in how you build your characters and a good amount of variety in the levels. Plus it's made by Yuzo Koshiro and Ancient.

I have a copy, but I haven't played it yet. For what it's worth $40 is only $5 more than the original release price, which would be about what it cost to buy and ship from LRG.

At that price, I would pick it up if interested. It has all the content on the cart.

I watched a video for it as I had no clue what this was... and it doesn't look that fun to me for $40. Maybe for $20 physical complete or $5 for the basic version digital and I'd be more open to it. The game loop looks kind of simple but could be fun on the cheap.

 
I played the Rebirth demo some more last night and this time around, I was a bit more observative...
1. There's a lot of pop in for me during the forest area from the town on the way to the reactor
2. It would be nice to have something like the OG game, where it would mark entry paths for me. My first time through, I missed the city hall and Tifa's house because I didn't realize you could go inside. I only found Cloud's house because there was a blue marker.
3. The valve turning QTE (or whatever you wanna call it since it wasn't quick), and really any QTE... just needs to go away or be more fun that hold button of X seconds.
 
Started up Granblue Fantasy Relink last night, instead of watching the Superbowl, though I did tune in for Usher's halftime show and he killed it. When Turn Down for What hit, I lost my shit lol anyway, I really like it so far. I only have the starting characters for now, but they all play totally differently from each other. I think I like Eugen the most, since he legit turns the game into a shooter with his sniper mode and that is so unique for an action RPG, but really everyone is fun to play as. The story is...there lol but whatever, it's really just the tutorial for the postgame, which I'm really looking forward to getting to. Since I got the Deluxe Edition, I got a whole bunch of mastery points I can use to fast-track the starting characters' skill trees, but I'm trying not to go too crazy and make the game too easy. The music is very good and the visuals are fantastic, like this may be the nicest-looking anime-graphics game I've ever seen. Sucks it only hits 1080 in performance mode, though. Overall, super-fun so far.
 
BTW for anyone screwed out of the Sol Press Irotoridori No Sekai - The Colorful World Kickstarter (this guy for sure) be sure to follow the instructions of the Nekonyan Twitter page to send an email of your backer details on Kickstarter and they will send a Steam key to you. They don't need to cover up for those absolute screw ups, so this is really nice and why I support about 90% of their titles. I will be linking the 18+ patch when the game comes out.

Shiravune has licensed The Shell Part 2: Purgatorio. This is a sequel to The Shell, which is a remake of another VN.

VGP has Triggerheart Exelica ESRB physical pre-orders open. There is a special edition limited to 500 that's the same price as the standard (both $55 CAD - ~$40.50).
$80CAD is their free shipping limit, it defaults you to a paid one in PayPal checkout, but if you expand the shipping options the free one is there.

Fist of the North Star: Lost Paradise is $5 on PSN. I'll add that to the digital backlog.

.hack G.U is also $5. Never played the series, but looks worth it.

I've heard the opposite. The gameplay is super grindy and repetitive in the original games, but much better/more refined in G. U.

The gameplay was very primitive in the original quadrilogy, but at best I’d call GU’s gameplay streamlined compared to that—it’s still very basic, even by the standards of mid-00s ARPGs. That being the case, the .hack// games really only have their writing to fall back on, and while the originals had a well-written, occasionally thought-provoking plot featuring well developed characters, GU’s plot is a tropey, angsty, poorly written mess, and its characters are walking cliches. They really dropped the ball between the two waves of .hack// media.

GU is the very definition of bad, edgelord fanfiction (SKEITH IS COOL, SO WHAT IF YOU WERE SKEITH?!). IMOQ presented a realistic vision of the future, a compelling mystery, likable characters, and an impressive immersion that really made you feel like you were playing a real MMO. Meanwhile, I never once felt like I was talking to real people in GU, nor did I ever take its embarrassing story seriously. Not once was I unable to follow the story in IMOQ, while GU was a confusing mess that didn't make a lick of sense.

I don't even think the combat was very good. Sure, IMOQ's gameplay is indeed a bit primitive, but it's still an intuitive gameplay loop that rewards players for keeping their gear up to date through trading with other "players" and learning how to utilize the other party members. GU is a touch modernized, but by streamlining the menu management from the original games, it removed a lot of what made the series unique among similar games (particularly Phantasy Star Online, the game it took heavy inspiration from and managed to differentiate itself from). Moreover, IMOQ had I believe eight different fields and four different dungeons, while GU had you questing in the same one or two dungeons and fields for the majority of the trilogy. It wasn't until around two thirds/three quarters in that they introduced another one or two more of each, but you were stuck in just those ones until the credits rolled.

IMOQ and Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth are examples of a future I could legitimately see happening. GU was too busy asking, "What if the Phases were anime waifus and husbandos?" to bother building on SIGN, IMOQ, and Liminality's world outside The World.
 
I have yet to finish either .Hack series & I bought them all on release. Not for the lack of enjoyment I got from them, I just kept putting off playing the last volume in each series & never went back to them lol.

I'm genuinely curious why GU got a remake whereas the original series did not.
Click to expand...

GU had an audience. I don’t know how big it was, or what sales were like, but there were (and I think still are) vocal defenders of it. I think the majority of them probably ran into the games when they were angsty nonconformist teenagers, because those games have massive angsty, nonconformist teenager vibes—or to put it another way, they feel like they’re made for chuunibyous.

I think a big reason why GU was picked over IMOQ, though, is the visuals. IMOQ didn’t look very good, even compared to other early PS2 games—I think part of that is down to the (for the time) large environments, and a part of me even wonders if it started development for PS1 before being brought over the PS2. It would be a lot more work to do a remaster for IMOQ that gave it a decent visual shine—it’s entirely doable, mind you, something along the lines of what they did for OOT on 3DS would work wonders—but Bamco doesn’t really seem interested in investing that much money in the large majority of their back catalogue. GU was much more polished visually, and already had a sort of cel-shaded look to it, so it took a lot less time and money to polish that up.

It’s a particular shame because IMOQ actually had some great visual design work, but it’s pretty clear the devs just weren’t at all familiar with the PS2 hardware.

Xenoblade Chronicles playthrough update:

I'm now in the early part of Chapter 12, just over 60 hours of play time, and Shulk is level 57. Loving the game for story, exploration, battles, visuals, and of course the audio too! I'm not really feeling the gem crafting or gem material management. It's so easy to end up with 500 element pieces and have to either start producing gems or go sell them to make room for more. Producing gems gives you a nice boost of exp so it seems worth some effort even if the results aren't something that useful. I think what I may do is pick through everything class I & II ... make sure there's nothing special mixed in (EXP boosts are nice) and the just sell most of them off and then craft most of the III's. Just to get me as close to zero as possible. Same for picking through the gems I have made and selling the excess of anything common class I & II. This especially as there's still level IV & V elements to get into. Some IV's gems I've made with III material stacking just right and just randomly picking a good combo of people to make the gem. I know there's some rules for it that aren't too complex to learn but I feel like, I just don't care about most of it I'd clean house with weapons and other inventory items, but there are so many side quests that involve getting a stack of items that I've just been letting it build up and if I hit max on one of them (so far it hasn't happened), I'll cross that bridge then. I did like how the side quests in Chapter 11 were mainly just from exploring. So I naturally stumbled on I think everything there and pushed every button but one (next to the ether pistons on a walkway) ... and exposed the vast majority of the maps. Of course I maxed out all the collectopedia for each new area. Oh, and before I got deep into Chapter 11 I went ahead and upgraded Colony 6 to level 2 and then I'm over half way to level 3. Maybe when I'm deeper into Chapter 12 I'll take a break and see if I can go ahead and finish level 3 and as much level 4 as possible. Right now that's mainly what I have left to do beyond progressing the story unless some side missions have unlocked somewhere. Which, it did take me too much time to realize some of the side missions you can't take unless a certain person leads the party. But thankfully it was only a couple of them so far.

imoq also had secret dungeons based on areas from the tv series as well as the unique ones exclusive to itself for each field area that you'd see in the background or sky. I wish I had known about some of them at the time as I especially would have liked to go through the one that's basically a mc escher dungeon from the anime. that looked cool.
 
Heavy visual novel releases this week.

First of all from Nekonyan is Irotoridori no Sekai. This is likely the highest profile game released this week and has been in very high demand for quite a while. It is 11% off and on many storefronts including Mangagamer and JAST USA. As usual the 18+ patch is available for the Steam release.

Steam

JAST USA (NSFW)

Shiravune also have quite a big release IMHO with Nukitashi 2. I do highly recommend you play the first and there is a lot of adult content in the first one, so I'm assuming the second is similar. Nukitashi 1 was my visual novel of the year last year. There is an 18+ patch for the Steam version. The patch will be needed. It's also on many storefronts including Mangagamer and JAST USA. There is a 20% off discount currently. There is also a Nukitashi bundle on Steam, which is recommended if you need the first game as well, and you should play the first game.

Chatte Noire, a Nekoworks sister company, released Nie no Hakoniwa. This is supposedly very violent and is about cursed characters. Probably not for the faint of heart. There is paid DLC for the Steam release. It is 20% off on Denpasoft. The 18+ DLC is 15% off.

Aksys games released Spirit Hunter: Death Mark II. This is a sequel to Death Mark. It is available on Steam, PS5 and Switch. It is also available Physically as well (may be a bit short in supply, so get it if you're a fan).

Shiravune also released Dungeon Travelers: To Heart 2 in Another World. This is a 17+ pretty ecchi anime dungeon crawler. I love this series and I wish the other entries where on Steam instead of Johren. It is marked adults only on Steam, but I believe has no nudity. It currently has a 20% off launch discount.

Steam

Shiravune announced Taimanin Yukikaze from Black Lillith. These are pretty popular a little bit more extreme games. The art has always impressed me with these games.

VNDB (NSFW)

Shiravune also announced that they will now be selling their games on GOG as well. For now it's just a few games, but I'm guessing they'll eventually get the new releases similar to JAST USA and Mangagamer.

JAST USA announced a release date for Sisters: Last Day of Summer from Jellyfish on June 6th, 2024. I'm not sure this one was announced already. It is fully animated similar to School Days. It already is up for pre-order with a 10% discount on the JAST USA store.

Mangagamer also have a Valentine's Day sale (NSFW) going on until February 21st.

Finished Granblue Fantasy Relink's story last night (just doing the epilogue now), meaning I've unlocked the postgame grind. Really looking forward to just playing until I get sick of it. I'm on PS5 with no PS+, so I won't be doing multiplayer, but it seems that's really only a problem if you want the last Crewmate Card for unlocking characters. Apparently, you need these Gold Dahlia Badges to trade for the final card, and while those seem to drop plenty in multiplayer, they're as frustratingly scarce as a rare Blade in Xenoblade 2 (and there's no savescumming with cloud saves for this lol). But, I've been known to endure some pretty tedious grinds before, so I'll manage.

This game has been an absolute blast and I highly recommend it to anyone who has even a passing interest in ARPGs. While I'm glad the story didn't drag out (I was done at less than 30 hours, but that was also with doing all the optional quests as they became available), I'm legit sad it's over because it was so over the top, exciting, and cinematic. It was like watching a really high budget anime film. The gameplay is incredible, especially with how all the characters play differently. Sure, there's a lot of swordy bois and gurls, but they all have their own gimmicks that keep the combat fresh, and the small handful of ranged characters really shine. I'm so overjoyed this game is doing well because it deserves all the sales and praise it's getting. I can't wait for the new content and I hope they develop some new story missions in the future. Solid 9/10 experience.
 
Just reached Chapter 17 on Xenoblade Chronicles last night. I think I might be able to reach my goal of completing the game and the Future Connected content before the release of FFVII Rebirth.

This may be the one time pre-ordering an XSEED deluxe/special edition hasn't bitten me in the ass, since the game is doing so well, I doubt the deluxe edition will see a huge price cut any time soon.

Anyone know if the Trinity Trigger Day One edition is worth it for $30? Looks like it comes with a two disc soundtrack and an artbook.

I'd rather have the digital deluxe edition personally, it includes all of the dlc (well, the dlc that isn't booster shit).

The dlc costs too much on its own otherwise, like $26
 
These prices are inching closer to being what I want to pay for most of these ($25). Crymachina I enjoyed the demo enough, but it didn't feel amazing to me. Eternights I own or I would already be buying it. What's the opinion on D7? I don't play these games as much as when I was younger (played D1 and D2 to death).
