Be havin' a writeup on this todaymorrow. 7am and haven't slept tonight. Meow.

The biggest surprise is that MangaGamer seeks to fund the continuation of Supipara. This is the first time a Japanese VN will be developed with western money, it's a very unusual circumstance. It's a very ambitious plan. I have my doubts about it, but I hope it works out for them.

Euphoria is gonna be uncensored thats kinda interesting and scary at the same time due to all the torture scenes

[Praeliator]

I'm very interested in eden* and Supipara so I look forward to that, the others, not so much.

[Clephas]

Eden*... look forward to it guys.  It is the only Minori kamige.

[Mephisto]

Oh dear. 

[yashasupercow]

It's possible... Mangagamer has the localization rights for Navel's games.

YAY!

[dreamweaver]

Good work picking up those titles mangagamer.

Navel's title next pretty please??

[Decay]

They're working on so many titles already, don't expect them to announce another Navel title for a very long time. They have their hands full with other stuff.

[Vokoca]

Euphoria?

 

Oh boy.

[Freestyle80]

Euphoria....fthats some hardcore stuff they'r localising

Other than that Eden seems good,from the makers of Ef i think

[Narcosis]

Not sure if I'm even interested in Eden, after all the past shitstorm. Minori lost a lot in my eyes within last few years.

 

This might seem like MG finally getting their shit together, but in reality it's just an outcome of long overdue business negotiations. I guess it's at least good they are starting to release higher quality, somewhat decent games instead of all the trash they used to publish in the past.

[Nosebleed]

Euphoria really? Didn't see that coming..

[Sakamoto]

Euphoria was completely unexpected.

 

What's next in the future? Fraternite? :3

[Zakamutt]

Euphoria was fairly expected actually w

[DawnWolf]

Interested in Euphoria and eden*, will pick up both if they come out before the end of the millennium 

[edwd2]

lay your hands off eden* please!!!

 

[Cyrillej1]

I played Euphoria in japanese a bit.. was a bit too dark for my tastes, especially when I was trying to translate it myself xD. I might get it if it releases in english though. At least that way, I can read it quickly instead of having to sit slowly through the crazy parts.

 

The House in Fata Morgana looks kinda interesting... not sure I'm really into the 'goth' setting/art-style though... but looks like it has high reviews.. hm.  (ooh looks like there's a demo for it, gonna try it~)

[Albedo]

Looking forward to Eden*, Euphoria and Fata Morgana!

[suikashoujo]

Every one of these announcements seems like a winner (I've only played Euphoria out of all of them, but I love that game already- the others just seem really good). I'm glad they seem to have made up for AX.

So it's official--all-ages Steam releases of eroge with 18+ versions in English are possible.  This means that Mangagamer won't have to rely completely on nukige funding for sustainability.  This is important because their story-focused eroge releases in the past have tended to be unprofitable.  I worried that the incentive to release long story-focused titles would disappear.

I'm usually against H-scenes so I can say I'm glad Steam players are getting a choice.
