Anybody have any idea of the difference (in the content) between Vita version and the PSP version? I'm a little curious if the Vita version may have something the PSP version doesn't have.

Also people are still playing these kinda game involving these real-life celebs as game characters.

um.. how can you write 153 actually different routes for a game with any depth... much less being able to get it down to one person.

I'm pretty sure anyone buying this is not looking for a compelling story.

Give them a Love Plus type of game, where you can go on dates with different AKB idols, and they'll be happy. No need for any kind of meaningful story in routes.

So, what's the timeframe on the report of some young man in Japan trying to marry his AKB in-game Idol? 2 years from now?

I would give it 4 months (more or less), give or take.

You can't. This is simply a dating sim where the only thing that changes is the girl that you're going after. It's not a visual novel where there's an actual story.
