Schnarf Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/press-release/2014-05-09/mangagamer-announces-really-really Thought I'd share this since I just started playing Shuffle. Looking forward to Nadeshiko's route. Quote
Flutterz Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Wow, really?! I am so sorry... I got an email about this yesterday from Mangagamer, this might be interesting to check out when I want some pure moege. Quote
Nosebleed Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Wow, really?! I am so sorry... Out. Now. Wonder if they'll ever do the Shuffle Essence +. I really wanted to see the extra heroines, particularly Mayumi, not fandisks of the current ones. But nonetheless I'll check it out, seems more worth it than Tick Tack at least. krill 1 Quote
Kynbound Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Thats good news. If the sales do well Essence+ will most likely be next Quote
Katatsumuri Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Out. Now. Wonder if they'll ever do the Shuffle Essence +. I really wanted to see the extra heroines, particularly Mayumi, not fandisks of the current ones. But nonetheless I'll check it out, seems more worth it than Tick Tack at least. Wait, wait wait. Are you saying that Mayumi has a route in Essence +? Quote
Nosebleed Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Wait, wait wait. Are you saying that Mayumi has a route in Essence +? Not just her but the blonde girl as well. There's also original characters that only appear in Essence + Essence + has 11 heroines as oposed to Shuffle that only has 5. The extra routes are: Kikyou (Sia's twin) Mayumi (Two toned eye girl) Kareha (Asa's friend) Tsubomi (Kareha's sister) Sakura (Osananajimi) Nadeshiko (Teacher) Daisy (Mysterious loli) This is why I eagerly hope Essence + gets a translation. krill 1 Quote

If it doesn't, then something is wrong with this world. that is not an opinion, but a fact that might also be an opinion. Quote
Flutterz Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Wait, wait wait. Are you saying that Mayumi has a route in Essence +? I THIS'd so hard my walls turned into THIS. Quote
Katatsumuri Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 I THIS'd so hard my walls turned into THIS. Wait, so your walls turned into gold? Calm down, Midas. On another note however, I wonder why they haven't began translating this. I mean, It should be the logical next step after TT and RR... Quote

I mean, It should be the logical next step after TT and RR... It's a lot of extra content, it's more than double the heroines in Shuffle so it'll be a piece of work. Don't know how long it actually is though. But yeah it'd be logical to want to translate it in my point of view. Quote
OriginalRen Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Can someone post a link to this or what it's all about? Quote
OriginalRen Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 errr it's in the OP. But this is the VN that it stems from http://vndb.org/v28 Exactly what I was looking for, and what I meant. Quote
Decay Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Shuffle is a mediocre moege with elves, and it's popular because.... ??? I guess it has its strengths but I really wonder where its popularity comes from. I guess maybe because it was an early MG title before there was much translated moege available? Quote
suikashoujo Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Shuffle is a mediocre moege with elves, and it's popular because.... ??? I guess it has its strengths but I really wonder where its popularity comes from. I guess maybe because it was an early MG title before there was much translated moege available? I remember playing it (as my first eroge, actually) because I had watched the anime when it came out in the US. I think that's why it has a decent amount of popularity. As for me, I downloaded the trial, and I'm really looking forward to the full version coming out. Kaede is my favorite Shuffle heroine, so I've been waiting for it. This was great news to wake up to.

Yeah, that's a real informed opinion you have there Quote
Kynbound Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 elves, huh? Yeah, that's a real informed opinion you have there Pointy ears= elves in the eyes of some Quote
Decay Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 Yeah, gods, devils, whatever. They're elves to me. I was being flippant but really, my point is that I don't fully understand where the game's popularity came from. It's not necessarily a terrible game, but 31st most popular game on VNDB? One of MG's best selling titles? I just don't get it. Quote
Okami Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Yeah, gods, devils, whatever. They're elves to me. I was being flippant but really, my point is that I don't fully understand where the game's popularity came from. It's not necessarily a terrible game, but 31st most popular game on VNDB? One of MG's best selling titles? I just don't get it. Anime was really great and pretty popular so popularity come from there probably, but what I don't understand is why people like this so much as VN version isn't even close to anime, unles really? really! and Tick! Tack! are far batter from origanal Shuffle! I really don't get it as original Shuffle! VN was done porly. Quote
Narcosis Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 That popularity propably came from the fact most of these people didn't have much else to chose from in the first place. I dislike the part of community that grew up on MG's titles and haven't actually touched anything else besides them; they are detrimental to the rest and with a tiny exception, don't bring anything exceptional themselves. Quote
BookwormOtaku Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Well I've preordered since I like the series and Kaede's route was my favorite in the original game. I'll admit the series isn't even close to my top tier list, but to me it does enough right for me to appreciate it for what it is: a simple moege with fantasy elements. Katatsumuri 1 Quote
Darkshine Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I don't get what the big deal is about Shuffle! and it's popularity, i've read the VN itself and it wasn't that much to talk about though i'm not saying it was bad. I'd rank it as a decent VN to check out if you have the time. Quote
Drmarmot Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 it would be nice if a walktrough was made of this game. Quote
mitchhamilton Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 it would be nice if a walktrough was made of this game. It would make things easier but it isn't really really necessary. <-- See what I did there? If you've played any Phoenix Wright game, it's pretty much the same. Use keywords to find memories that aren't right and use them in the right text to fix the memory. Although it can be hard. Like this one time the characters were talking about Primula and how it would be nice if she could go to school with them and then walk home with everyone. I had to play all the other memories because I thought I didn't have the keyword. So finally I had to go back and pretty much guess where the distortion was. Turns out is was the part where Kaede mentions walking home together. "That's right. Primula wasn't living with us then." How was I supposed to know that? I know it wasn't long after meeting everyone that she started living with Kaede and Rin, so I just assumed she was living with them then. Quote
Zakamutt Posted June 15, 2014 Posted June 15, 2014 I don't know what to say about absolutely nobody commenting on me winning a free copy of this through that japanator raffle, lol. That said, apparently shuffle is recommended reading, and so is tick tack. Which makes the whole free thing a bit amusing, though if I do decide to use my free copy I might get the earlier stuff for free as well. Well, all of this convo hinges on me not having much money.
