Remember when this series had a kind of balance between ridiculous fanservice comedy and an inexplicably serious and edgy plot? I remember that.

I hope we get an English version of the Shinobi Master smartphone game!

If I had a Switch, I'd get that pinball game. I don't have a PS4 either, so I'll stick with the original Burst for 3DS. The massage game is a bit too pander-y, even for my tastes.

A remake of Burst and a New SK game in 2018, i'm OK with that.

I do recommend buying ReNewal for those who haven't played Burst yet and don't have a 3DS, you'll have a definitive experience. Otherwise just skip it and buy 7EVEN. As for 7EVEN, I can't wait to see an explanation of any new mechanics, gameplay, and a PV and my god is so far away in it's release date. The pinball game is really meh and overpriced though, WTF. That should be 500 yen at most. New link is just a money pit on mobile, not much to say.

Don't know what type of pc you have but the senran kagura games a bit after western release get a pc port that's pretty decent. Can always look into that avenue if you want.

So many new games for this boobilicious series. I feel bad for the Switch players because their two games do not have the hack 'n' slash gameplay. The remake should have been for the Switch as well since SK originated from a Nintendo handheld. Anyway, the remake and the mobage look beautiful. Also, I am looking forward to the series' new anime.

Yeah, that worked for me for Shinovi Versus, which works surprisingly well on my laptop despite being way below the minimum specs. Crossing my fingers...

That's what Deep Crimson and Burst are for. Heck we are getting a remake of Burst with Yumi tacked on for no good reason. Seriously if you are going to tack on any of these characters at least go for Miyabi and Imu because they are at least tangentially related to Crimson Girls.

I'm most excited for 7even, even though there is barely any information released about it. I might get the switch games but they are very low priority for me and I even doubt they will be released over here.

Except neither is as popular as Yumi hence why she's being added.
