That's nice, but some of us prefer to buy the licensed VNs. I don't play that many VNs, so I have no problem supporting companies like JAST and MG when they release something I'm interested in.
Anyways, to me it looks like JAST had the better set of announcements by far. Shiny Days and Steins Gate are instant buys, and I've heard good things about Little Witch Romanesque, so I'd be willing to take a chance on that one too.

Yup, they're back! Two of their translators were at the panel when it was announced.

Quote: | FRIDAY JULY 5, 2013, CALIFORNIA – Sekai Project proudly announces the animated visual novel Shiny Days. The game will feature 30 endings with many variations of each character. Compared to the earlier game, School Days HQ, the content length of Shiny Days is roughly 30% longer.
To make the English release of this game a reality, the partnership with JAST USA and 0verflow has been renewed. Please look forward to the release in the near future. |
And in other news from that panel...

It's nice to see a big name VN picked up, but I have little interest in playing it myself. The anime was pretty good but I have no desire to play the game.
What I'm excited to see is Little Witch Romanesque. I'll definitely get that one. Might pick up Shiny Days too.

Oh. I'll just stick with the anime then.

however the mouths do move and have facial expressions. If you care watch an example of the game play watch below. Also keep i mind they have the same voices as the anime along with multiple endings, you only seen the true/good ending.

Its been said for previous licenses that if you write to Jlist support having purchased a title JAST licensed, they will hook you up with the official English version (its case by case and for jlist purchases only of course).

I was happy when I read Steins;Gate was coming but then shoved that aside from my thoughts when I read Shiny Days is coming too! YEAH!!!
But I seriously hope they don't edit out any of the content like MoeNovel has done and p*ssy out Kokoro's scenes at all! Exciting! Now I can finish the some of the routes that were a bit hard for me to understand!!

Those are my thoughts on the issue as well with shiny summer days. There are a lot of MILF's in this ero game as well but kokoro is by no defenation an adult or can pass off like setsuna can. This has me a bit worried however I'm going to wait and see what happens.

I remember it being announced particularly for President because many people imported through J-List to support the fan translation. The Saya import product page says similarly:
http://www.jlist.com/product/PCG6022 wrote: | Note: Customers who purchase the Japanese version of this game will be entitled to one free download version when the game ships in English. |
So this could be only for previously fan-translated titles but its worth asking, they try hard to keep customers happy
