Cool for PlayStation owners, though I'm already glad with their PC releases since I believe "PC is superior to console. Their release of Suguri and Acceleration of Suguri was awesome,though, and it could work well with those console joypads. Looking forward to Gundemonium coming out in soon.

Maybe it'll be what gets me to give one a try. I've always been curious, but not to the extent to order one. Don't know though, it'll have to be something impressive to actually spring for one.

WOW, this is cool, dojin game finally going to the US for the first time. First it was this ecchi suggestive game and now we are getting dojin game. How cool can this get.

To ANN: you think I can send this article to Brian Ashcroft from kotaku. He reports a lot of Japan-related stuff and he really needs to know this article.

Not really the first time. Xbox Marketplace has had various Japanese indie games available for purchase for almost a year now.

Links to a couple of the games:
クレッシェンドシンフォニー
それでも、私は愛している
魔法の国のメロディ ファニーダンシング
魔法合成屋さんのミケ
デッドラGO!

At last count there were no less than 15 various doujin games on Xbox for download. I'm played the demos, and some were kind of fun, others were the typical dating sim. The catch is they're all in Japanese. Razz

They probably can play on non-Japanese 360s if it was Microsoft Europe that pulled Soredemo, Watashi wa Aishiteiru.

I haven't bought any yet, but they're available for the US marketplace, and the demos all played fine on my regular US Xbox 360.

I queued up the demos for download next time i boot my 360, the shooters at least, i probably will buy some if the demos are fun...

Does anyone know the price point for these Dojin games on psn?
Just curious if I should pick up another download card before the 18th.

let's see some type-moon stuff...

as in, "fate/stay night."

Very Happy

"fate/unlimited codes" was fun, but it doesnt count.
